Don’t worry…I’m sure your still **Meadea’s** favorite corset-tightener.

Why, yes, now that you mention it, I am. The thing is, that mostly involves taking clothes _off_, and I needed the refresh myself on the intricacies of putting them _on_. 😛

Alas, 'twas never the case I am afeared, for yonder boyfriend wouldst certainly be. Mine hope 'tis but a faerie dream: “Too flattering sweet to be substantial”.

I was in the grocery store last night (read: Meijers, purveyors of everything you need and don’t) and thought to myself, “Self, why don’t you check out their teen clothing group and see if they might just have that little plaid mini you need.”

Lo, there it was. On the Clearance Rack. Red Stuart plaid with a little leather belt. Size 14/16. ON SALE!

:sigh:

However, it was not meant to be.

1. It was made for girls without hips. Surprisingly, I have 'em.

2. I really didn’t have the money.  
BUT, most importantly…

3. It didn’t have pleats. I’m demanding pleats, doggone it!

I’m sure Wet Seal or any of those trashy/trendy clothing stores in the mall will get me set up.

So what kind of underwear goes best with a sleezy nun costume, anyway? Bustier or regular push-up bra?

**porc** , well I’d say a black thong to match the habit.

As far as the bustier vs. bra, how 'bout one of those Victoria’s Secret Miracle Bras with the little silicone jelly packs in the cups? You know…external implants! (there’s an oxymoron!). You could buy one to match your rosary! 😛

I’m thinking of buying one to actually give me some cleavage but the doggone things are like $40! For a bra! :eek:

I’m sure **ts** will have some thoughts on the subject though. 😃

Well, I’m already a 38D, so I’m not sure if I need that much help. Maybe a more traditional “push-up-and-in” bra will give me the required visual boost. Or even a “regular” Miracle Bra.

And I think sleezy nuns wear black garter belts and stockings, right? Or is it red? I can’t keep these things straight…

Well, it’s been my experience that the proper sleazy nun will wear only black, with the exception of panties. Red, black or au natural are acceptable here. All stockings and brassieres are to be black, though, and again, this is an exception, the garter may be red, black or white (to match the panties, white for…well, you know.)

The “pushing up and in” is always acceptable and, indeed, encouraged, but you are allowed some latitude here as well.

Caveat: a “only slightly or somewhat impure” nun will wear all white undergarments, as she is still not quite to the level of sleazy. Her apparel will appear similar in all respects and it will not become evident of her remaining reputable nature until she has freed herself from her habit, so to speak. This is known as “false advertising” and is frowned upon.

Oh, I wouldn’t say “expert.” Dabbler, perhaps Seasoned amateur working his way up maybe, but not expert.

The above was mine.

I let my friend use my computer for one post… (Her with her great post count, probably about half of which is me posting without looking on one or another of our machines.)

BTW, everybody wave to Jera!

Nonsense! The more, the merrier. I’ve only met one member of these boards, and that’s **thinksnow**. And that’s only because we live in the same town. If you want to come join in the merriment, consider this your engraved invitation.

**bovary** , don’t think that you shouldn’t come because you haven’t met anyone IRL yet. My first DopeFest was a big ChiDope last October (over 20 people). I had only been posting for a couple of months, and I hadn’t met anyone IRL. I was nervous as hell (hence the need to chug my first two splits of champagne), but I ended up having a great time.

And really, none of these people are my friends. It’s just an act. 😃
