Conches, corsets and.. content[?]

My 5mm punch is waiting for me 🙂

My conch punch has arrived!! Expect photos of me looking like I’ve been shot in the back of the head soon 🙂 I’ve been watching youtube videos, that was a mistake.. some are horrific! Some cry, some look dazed, some bleed LOTS!  5mm, (my other conch is 4mm, so I shall stretch it to match) Was debating 6mm, but my other was really easy to stretch until it hit 4mm, so I figure this won’t be too hard to stretch a little larger if I decide to. Looking at the punch, it looks pretty small, but I’m betting I won’t be thinking that when I get there. Nearly convinced friend to come take pictures. Although she refuses to watch, she’ll document the aftermath. A bus trip with my head bleeding could be fun!

Crapping myself, but very very excited >.<

Today I changed corset. To my harder to lace properly one, even though its more flexibe and larger, its somehow more difficult? Changed the lacing over, which helps a little, but its still stubborn. Just under 30″ today, still measuring on top of the corset.

Also, I like this new wordpress feature that gives you suggested content. Though I very much doubt I’ll use the links and blogs, the suggested pictures should come in very useful!

Corset Hiatus

Soo.. after my annual summer corsetting hiatus, I broke out my corset last night, thinking it had been cool enough (and rainy) for a few weeks to not melt. And so I wake up today.. to massive sun and humidity. Great. Just the three layers today then!

Today my waist is 30.5″ corsetted. My natural waist is a fair bit smaller, but corsets are pretty thick, and its not done too tight so I can get accustomed to it again.  Ugh.. so far to go again. I’ve put on weight and an inch or two this summer too 😦

My FGM 24 corset has yet to arrive. Still. They sent on the rest of my order a few weeks ago, with a little apology postcard saying they’d send it when they got it. I am sad.. It will be pretty when I get there though. And it is a pretty postcard

I’d really like to get to 22″ corset closed this year. Not sure I will though, without a serious waspie (probably custom). Childbearing hips, and a pigeon breast are a bit of a family thing…

I am hopefully[!] going to keep a daily/weekly/monthly record of how I go. It might be interesting. Or not. It probably won’t be too accurate, some of my corsets are thinner or more flexible than others. Overbusts cinch my waist more easily (without guillotining my chest/hips), but they also move my boobs up to my chin. Not a daily sort of look!!

So I’m going to be doing some posts about artists I really admire at the moment, during the next few days

In a bid to make myself blog again.

Look out for them 🙂
