Life In A Corset: Episode 1

This series will be about ups and downs of wearing a corset.

Last weekend I wore my corset for about 20 consecutive hours. First I wore it with overalls to an outdoor meeting for Pioneer Farms upcoming productions. Wearing something that close fitting in Texas heat is a bad idea. If I hadn't been wearing a tube top underneath, my corset would have been smelly and gross. I then changed into nice black flared jeans, victorianesque heeled booties, and a quarter sleeve tan blazer. My corset functioned as my blouse. I wish I had remembered to get a picture but suffice it to say my friends said I looked professional and I thought I looked fabulous. This ensemble I wore dancing. Not at a club bumping and grinding but at a dance studio that hosts teen dances. When I say "dance" I mean waltz, tango, salsa, jitterbug, etc. I decided that I wanted to wear the same outfit to church the next day so I just slept in my corset. It would have been a pain to get out of it that late at night and then try and get it on the next morning. For the most part it was comfortable to sleep in. There was just one zip tie that was sitting oddly on my hip and was digging in but overall I had no trouble sleeping. The next morning I just got ready for and went to church and then wore it till the late afternoon/early evening. I will say that I couldn't eat as much in one sitting as I'm used to but I was hungry more often so I ate more than three times.
