Corset tales
When the DIY floral swing went up, I knew exactly what outfit I wanted to wear with it. A cute eyelet lace corset I bought at NBC last summer for $6. I usually pair it with a flowy skirt because corsets always remind me of something you see on the cover of a romance novel…
Growing up, my friend’s mom had TONS of them around her house, ( aka 1980’s mom porn) We would always giggle at them, and even then I would always focus more on how pretty the dresses were than the shirtless dudes lol.
You never know whats going to come up on image search for romance novels! Eden?? It begins in Texas?…I am now tempted to order the book LMAO. It’s from 1991, how spicy could it be? LoL.
I can’t promise wearing a cute corset will produce a flowing maned, muscled sherrif with an aversion to clothing, ( I’m sure they are on his floor somewhere for a wife to pick up, probably right next to thee hamper lol) but I can tell you they have that sexy yet sweet vibe going on that make it a great date night top with a blazer and a pair of jeans.
Corsets have had a bad rap, deservingly though, no one thinks of comfort when they hear the word corset. However, they are no longer the instrument of torture they once were lol.
I can’t even imagine living in yesteryear where they were a daily undergarment. I complain wearing even a flimsy bralette, I would have never made it back then. I thought for sure a man invented it, but nope, it was a woman. Yay for female invention, boo for the inability to breathe for decades. The things we have endured in the name of fashion and for a smaller waist. Hmmpf.
My peachy keen skirt makes a quick comeback. It has that dreamy romantic feel that I want to pair with everything. The floppy hat just adds to this ultra-feminine look which is always a winner in my book.
Blessings,
Eden
