I Hope to be Classy!
Lately, I've been entertaining an idea that I've played with for years...! I'd very much like to get a corset! I have one now, of course, but it's bones are coming out, and it's too large for me since I've lost some weight and it doesn't do much for my shape any more.
I'm sick of the overbust, anyway, and I'd like to get an underbust! After browing the Meschantes website for a good while, I believe I know just what I'll get!
The "Mischief" style there is just what I'm looking for! I wanted a rider-corset-like form that I can tight-lace. Sadly, I couldn't go with any of the ready-to-wear options because I'm already an hourglass shape as it is, so I need a custom-made corset, whose base price is $35 more than the pre-prepared corsets.
I'm getting a 22" waist, since my current waist is 26" and I intend to tight-lace. And, I was glad to see that there was a tight-lacer's special for just $50 extra, providing me with not only a steel reinforced busk AND a boned underbusk, but also longer laces, double boning and two corset liners! How lucky, and what a deal! Although I wish they'd throw in a modesty panel, but I can live without that. c:
And finally, I'm ordering it with a slate gray paisley brocade fabric, but only if I can get them to add black piping along the boning! If they can't do that, then I'll have to find another fabric! Perhaps something green--emerald green! The gray would be utterly boring without the piping.
All-in-all, the total might come close to $250, so I'm somewhat reluctant (damn my frugality!) to buy it. We'll see.
But how lovely corsets are!
Mmm, dat ass!
Secondly, I'm still in the full swing of my cooking/baking phase! I'm making dinner tomorrow (it will be arugula and goat cheese chicken rolls), and wingalinged may join me in baking a delectable chocolate liquor cake! I've also gotten ingredients for making daifuku, as well as other asian sweets!
GOD I LOVE SWEET BEAN PASTE. <3
And lastly, a shout out to my pen pals! :D I'm really excited about writing letters and such! I've sent out one letter already, and am waiting for two to show up in my mailbox!
Particularly one with a fantabluous drawing of magical undersea adventures in it~!
Ah...And before I leave, I have to mention...I just got a call on my cell phone from a "Restricted Number" (this is the middle of the night, mind you) and when I picked up my phone and answered, I heard just a croaking sound on the other end...Kind of like that sound from The Grudge ("Ju-On").
...how scary!! I'm freaked out now. /hides under covers
