Vintage Corset

November 3, 2011

Corsets are to me what tank tops are to most. A basic must-have! ♥

Vintage pastel print corset

Found this pretty baby in a thrift store. It’s pastel colors and and pearly white texture reminded me of these abstract paintings, more like printed repros, that were found in every doctor’s clinic in Honduras back in the 80s/90s.

I’m not the best advocate for comfortable outfits, but wearing modern-day corsets like this one during lazy days is really not bad at all. Elastic back: check! Enough space for breathing: check!

It’s a shame you can’t see the corset details on these photos and that my face is shining like the sun. I’m still learning how to take flattering pictures. Bare with me, oui?

Next posts? DIY for next week and a cute car-print skirt I’m working on.
