I told you girdles and suspender belts were hot, but would you listen?   Now, Dior is on board, and let’s see who can resist the call.

Girdles, garter belts, industrial strength brassieres, it’s all good. Taking a hint from Amanda Palmer, I’d like to strut around in a black garter belt, raggedy stockings and army boots. I don’t know what could be more ’empowering’ and inviting at the same time.

I hate the word “empowering”, by the way.   What I mean is, to revel in one’s sexual authority.   If you’ve never worn a garter belt, try it and see it’s effect.

I once knew a woman whose husband’s preference in lingerie was plain white underwear.   I tried not to let on how horrified and disgusted I was:   What a fucking   freak! It wasn’t like he wanted a schoolgirl, it was more of a Pottery Barn aesthetic. I guess he thought sexy underwear was vulgar. Sure enough, she had an affair with a guy she worked with, but he turned out to be a pantyhose enthusiast. I’m not sure what this proves.

Today I went out with my BFF and bought a bra from a sale rack. I was later surprised to hear that this constitutes “shopping.”   Since when is buying a bra shopping?!   I also bought a lipstick, which I know isn’t shopping, it’s just restocking.
