Link dump! Use your own judgement as to whether or not you should follow any of these links in your current environment.

Girdlebound "Weapons-grade fetish wear" (as someone else referred to it), indeed. The design is somewhat annoying, but I love this site. And this particular piece. Happy holidays to my sweetiesme. *grin*

Full fashioned French heel stockings, which I would be more inclined to own if I could wear stockings more than once or twice without punching holes in them with my nails. =(

Full fashioned Cuban heel stockings, see above comment.

Silk stockings, up to opera length (which at 5'4" I am at least six inches too short to wear, but I know there are some tall folks on my flist who may or may not care)

Vertical black and white stripey tights. !!! And thigh-highs further down the page.

Hey Viv!; crinolines specifically, but also felt circle skirts and poodle skirts

Delicious Corsets, my downfall at "Kink in the City". ;) Pricey, but lovely.

Period Corsets. I know nothing about them, but I rather like the c. 1660 Kristina corset. They also have petticoats, but unless I had a specific reason to do otherwise, I'd probably go to Recollections.

50's style cocktail dress with included overbust corset. Very pretty, but for $800 and up I'd want more than a 2" reduction. Yes,I'd guess it's not a terribly unfair price for what it is, but I want my corsets to give me 5" or 6" rather than the Frederick's-type 2".

"Delilah" corset. *drool* It would not look at all flattering on me, but I like it anyway.

Who says you'd have to wear them more than once or twice? ;-)

*drool*

[geekchick]

At $40+ a pair, I'll be damned if I'm only getting one wearing out of them. =)

[quasigeostrophy.livejournal.com]

Well, you just need to find someone with short nails to help you put them on and take them off. I would like to proudly announce that I have short nails (Toni says so does she, and she thought of the comment first, but I had to jump on it while still giving credit where credit is due). ;-)

[geekchick]

*snerk* The two of you are completely incorrigible. (I'm sure this is not news to, oh, anyone. ;) )

[quasigeostrophy.livejournal.com]

*grin* You keep incorriging encouraging via these posts of yours. ;-)

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

(nods) sometimes it feels like a very diffuse and indirect power exchange... with her firmly holding the whip hand ;).

(pines)

[datagoddess.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd kind of noticed that about her.

[geekchick]

All glory to the Hypnotoad...

*ahem* Sorry, what was I saying?

[quasigeostrophy.livejournal.com]

Weren't you incorriging me? ;-)

[nminusone.livejournal.com]

Even those of us with long nails can work stockings just fine, thank you very much. It was all just a matter of practice. ;P

[quasigeostrophy.livejournal.com]

*snerk* Practice makes perfect. :-)

[nminusone.livejournal.com]

I don't know about perfect... but I am pretty damn good. :)

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

We could take up a collection... even one of those PayPal buttons...

[geekchick]

Heh. I'd rather you didn't. =)

[crouchback.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the distraction, as well as adding to my list of places to check out when considering gift-giving.

[geekchick]

Happy to assist. =)

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

I'd buy you stockings just to, er, wear once... and not even for very long... (blush).

Does this mean that you bought/received one of those girdles? Yum... and I wonder if that's your actual bra size? Happy holidays, indeed.

I'd love to see you in the striped tights... if I hadn't already shipped your gifts, I'd be sorely tempted.

I like "The Other Woman"'s attitude... and hey, they'll be at Arisia...

[geekchick]

I wonder if that's your actual bra size?

Heh. Heh heh heh. I haven't been a B cup in twenty years or so. Those are their default selections. (Yes, I ordered one in 40D.)

The FedEx boxes showed up here on Wednesday, by the way. And Pat's envelope showed up earlier in the week. I forgot y'all would be out of town around Xmas, so I'll ship your presents so that they'll show up when you get home; don't want to leave them sitting for a week.

I already blew my corset budget at KitC. =)

[jbsegal.livejournal.com]

Speaking of arriving packages... ?

[geekchick]

Didn't show up with today's mail.

[gsh]

*melt*

[geekchick]

This is where I point out that the corset I bought is a silk brocade, right? ;)

[gsh]

*whimper* Will I get to see you in it at Arisia?

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

Consider yourself lucky just to *see* her at Arisia... (envy)

[gsh]

I also get to see her in about two weeks. neener neener

[datagoddess.livejournal.com]

I like this from the place that has the horizontal striped tights.

And all the corsets - mmmmmmm.

[anotheranon.livejournal.com]

Oh, liking very much - memory-ing this one! And yes - a quick glance at the Period Corsets shows that the silhouettes created are roughly accurate for the time periods described.

Especially thank you for the silk stockings link!

[winterbadger]

Wow. *brain overloads*

[geekchick]

You are an evil woman for tempting us with such yummies.

Why, thank you. Thank you very much. *grin*

I'd like one of each, please. Esp. the stuff from Delicious.

I've kind of got my eye on this one. ;)

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

Perfect for you! (grin)

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

I am largely ignorant about bra sizes, but 38B still sounded too flat compared to your awesome decolletage... :)

Pat's envelope is a Christmas card-equivalent, so is openable upon receipt, BTW.

[anotheranon.livejournal.com]

BTW, how has your Delicious corset worked out?

Don't own, but tried on one of the insect line in Philly. To my astonishment, I had a waist - that's some good corseting!
