One thing about getting a bit older is that you don't sweat the small stuff as much anymore. Or maybe you don't sweat it as often. That includes more confidence in your body and more ignorance of your flaws.
I recently decided that I needed a proper garter belt. One that can actually be worn out and about and not one that is made - and I quote one of my best friends after I had a bit of a wardrobe malfunction with a garter belt, trenchcoat in a busy airport - "That garter belt you are wearing is made for legs up in the air in the bedroom, not for walking around".
So, I ventured out to What Katie Did, a rather famous retro vintage lingerie boutique in London with a great website. And boy, was it worth going there. The staff is fantastic, you are able to try things on - including stockings - and overall the folks are amazing.
I even tried on a bullet bra, but have to report that my tits looked the like Duffy Duck's Snout - I know, hot! :

So, no bullet bra for this one.
What Katie Did also sells lovely, high quality corsets and I learned that I have an itty bitty waist and fit a 20 inch corset (TWENTY). I can't wait to buy the one I tried on. My waist was beyond tiny in it and it felt amazing!
So. Hollywood or London - two boutique location for What Katie Did - or online, I can so recommend if you want some sexy but functional "real deal" stuff.
