Today I met a bunch of lovely ladies for a clothes swap! Wonderful clothes, wonderful people and delicious pastries to get you a nice sugar-high ;D I went with two huge bags of stuff and returned with one huge and one tiny bag, so I call it a success. I got an eyeshadow, a lipstick, glitter gel, leggings, a bolero, a miniskirt and two lovely corsets. The one I'm most excited about is a gorgeous piece by Bibian Blue. I don't know the name of the corset, but it's black and gold and sits quite low on the hips.

| Here along with the bolero I also swapped! |
The cut makes it very comfortable to wear. I love the printed image on the front and the lace on the top edge, and there's even little satin frills on the sides, perfect! It's a size large, but you know the Spanish, their "large" is tiny!

I'm wearing one of the Nyx Matte Lip Creams I hoarded from Stockholm,
don't you think it matches my hair perfectly? |
 |
The corset laces with a satin ribbon that matches the decoration
in the front. I might change it to a longer one so I can put it on easier,
there's no busk. |

This one shows the details. The picture isn't that faded, it's just catching the light in weird angle.

| One more to show the cool slits the bolero jacket has! |
I have to say I simply love clothing swap events. I get to chat with people, see and touch wonderful clothes and I can also get rid of stuff I don't need. What more could you ask for?

ReplyDeleteWow, a Bibian Blue corset at a clothing swap!
ReplyDeleteLove the skeleton heels!
Thank you! The heels are quite new, I really like the pure white spine heel against the shiny black.
DeleteSweet mother of corsets!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great find, thanks!
DeleteIt fits you big. Don't you see it? the upper part should be under the bust...
ReplyDeleteThat makes no sense! It's a cut that sits low on the hips and doesn't come very high up. The only person the corset would fit when positioned right under the boobs would be about half of my height, and I don't think it's healthy for children to wear corsets ;D See this one with a similar cut for reference: http://bibianblue.com/shop/en/basic/31-plumetti-underbust.html
DeleteUpea löytö! En ole ikinä omistanut yhtään korsettia, vaikka olen monesti haaveillut sellaisesta. Minun arkityyliini korsetti ei sopisi missään nimessä, mutta jossain iltamenoissa sitä olisi ihanaa käyttää.
ReplyDeleteKiitos! Korsetit on kyllä ihania, saa niin kivat kurvit ja nopeasti ;D
DeleteAwesome corset!!! I love the idea of a clothing swap, I have so much stuff that is still usable but I just don't wear it anymore, it would be nice to pass it along to someone else!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love swaps, I have yet to organize one myself but they have worked really well with my friends so far. Hardly anyone has left without getting rid of something and getting something new. Usually people sell and buy, not only swap, but the prices have stayed very reasonable and selling and buying is so much nicer in person than over the internet!
