Rural Nebraska has been good to me for vintage rayon, but so has Western Massachusetts. I guess the sort of place I look for is a thrift store in a place that looks like it *needs* a thrift store, not a vintage shop. We need to get you to Wahoo, Nebraska to the thrift store in the Senior Center. They sell by the bag-and if you don't fill your bag to the very top, a sweet old granny will start pulling things off the rack and stuffing them in because, "You paid two dollars for it!" <br /><br />Anyway, if I can get my act together some time, I will do a post featuring some of my collection. The problem of course is that there's never enough of a single fabric to do much-but a halter top I might be able to manage.

They're just the cups, with some adhesive that you can "Tape 'em up" high as you like, and go about sans bra. My latex allergy keeps me from trying them (along with a wide variety of fetish wear-life's tough, I tell 'ya) but if you're dying to go out with your back exposed, they might work.

The advantage of wearing one THIS way, however, is that you can still have good old supportive underwear on, hurray! And accessorising with a fart blaster is always a winner. <br />Can I have your autograph please? Oh no, it's OK, I've already got it, thanks - it'll be worth something one day! xxx Curtisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362184504889147455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-13576780965036113882015-02-09T11:14:19.557-08:002015-02-09T11:14:19.557-08:00@Sue

If you think it looks OK , then it does. <br />I recently had a creep follow me through a store snapping photos of me on his phone. I was dressed like a, "normal" so I have no idea what the hell that was about. I really wanted to confront him and tell him to, "Take a picture, it lasts longer" but the way people are today, I wasn't willing to risk it. <br /><br />@Mim<br />I have to confess-I have a weak spot for Goth. I could never get away with it head-to-toe as I look awful in black, but I adored the look on everyone else. <br /><br />@Beth Waltz<br /><br />Dresses as jackets are a great idea. You've just reminded me of a suede dress I've been neglecting-so thank you! <br />Filene's dress sale? Yeah, that was a contact sport. I worked at Filene's (upstairs, thanks very much) and Jordan Marsh a couple years before that. I only endured a dress sale once. It was a large communal dressing room and in the excitement someone tried to leave with the dress I wore there! Thankfully, they didn't like it and dumped it in a stack by the door for discards, but I nearly had to buy a dress just to get home. After that, I kept my shopping upstairs. The employee discount wasn't good in the basement anyway.

Sharp and tart, this certainly works well with your glasses and the accessories. (Are fart-blasters available in basic black?)<br /><br />I'm intrigued by the satin (?) jacket from Filene's. (Mum always said I'd never be big enough or mean enough for a Filene's sale event.) Is it part of an ensemble?<br /><br />I'm not as thin as I was 30 years ago when I wore Halston rip-off button front shifts with a fabric tie belt. So -- I wear the relic as a long over-shirt over my version of yoga wear. This works for a day of massage and cut-and-color at the life collision repair shop.Beth Waltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720634636307254576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-56369455619929519432015-02-09T01:48:19.995-08:002015-02-09T01:48:19.995-08:00Hehehe, Attack of the Fart Blaster!

It's a celebrity in its own right.<br /><br />I have no wardrobe-stretching tips, though in my goth days I did live by the rule that if you wore the plainest black thing you could, all you had to do was change the accessories for a new look.

And saved me a fortune.)Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-18094670843017590252015-02-08T21:51:51.904-08:002015-02-08T21:51:51.904-08:00She is back and she is still bad!!!
