With a degree of perseverance which I have to say is a little unusual for me, I've got well and truly back into the corset habit, and thoroughly enjoying being laced up all day and every day for the last ten days. So much so, in fact, that it's even begun to feel slightly wrong not to be in my corset for the odd brief spell when I need to take a 'maintenance' break, and I really look forward to putting it back on again.
I've in the past almost always bought and worn second-hand corsets, or "pre-loved" as the favoured term goes nowadays. I'm lucky in being pretty much a stock size, and with the sole exception of an underbust one which really didn't suit me, I've been happy with all the ones I've worn over the years, and saved myself quite a bit of money too: good 'proper' corsets don't come cheap.
But when I spotted a sale bargain at the weekend of a brand new purple 28" PVC corset at a snip of £79, well... who could resist? It arrived this morning, and I swapped it straightaway for the 30" black one I'd got on. It's not quite such a bluish purple as it looked in the photo but quite stunning nonetheless, and extremely comfortable to wear, being a better fit around my bust than the 30". It's one of the few corsets I've had which is equipped with a 'modesty panel' at the back which is coming in handy as, being new, I can't lace it anywhere as tight as I would normally for fear of distorting and thereby wrecking it.
I happened to notice they'd also got an orange version of it in the sale as well and given that it's about £100 off the normal selling price, I wonder....
