Speaking of corsets!
The lovely number I bought for myself last October now slips right off, so I'm looking to get it a new home. I got it from Timeless Trends!
Still in like new condition, I pretty much only wore it extensively on Halloween (with a tank top underneath) and a couple hours at a time a handful of times, so no stretching or wear and tear. It's a 36M (I'll show their size chart below) and I'd be willing to let it go for $90 + shipping and handling (to be determined on where you are), but I'm willing to negotiate.
Here's their info for the corset:
Beige Cotton Overbust Corset, Hourglass Silhouette, Regular
Simple and clean, the Beige Cotton Hourglass Overbust corset is a must have for corset wears. Made of 100% cotton in a neutral beige with matching trim and satin ribbon, the Beige Cotton is comfort and style all packed into one.
This corset is constructed in our most popular hourglass shape as an overbust. This silhouette has a higher back for comfort and support with a built in modesty panel. The front bust lacing provides for additional flexibility for fit and exposure to provide you with the comfort and curves you deserve.

oh yeah! forgot about this post. so a while back i got a new corset which is the same corset i've had for a while but with a smaller bust (this is the timeless trends hourglass overbust corset, which comes in three different bust springs!)
< -- 28 medium 28 small -- >
on account of the medium (which is my first/old one) fits really well which is actually not always what i want-- you need a little compression to get that REALLY dramatic push-up cleavage!
yes ..... haha ha YES!!!
a lil muffin top results here of course but an otr corset is never gonna be perfect

the animal print epidemic ⋆✴︎˚。⋆
over the last few weeks it’s begun to feel like cheetah / leopard print has been all over social media.
this made me think back to times in my life when cheetah print had been popular. 2000s and 2010s fashion had their moments with cheetah, but ultimately it hadn’t left anyones closets.
╰┈➤ i think that the longevity of cheetah print is a result of the following reasons:
its exotic appeal: the pattern is reminiscent of wild animals, which can have both alluring and adventurous appeal.
its a bold statement: the print often makes a bold statement, people who wear it might be looking to express confidence and a sense of individuality.
its versatile: cheetah can be used to add a pop of pattern to various outfits, from casual wear to formal attire, and can complement a wide range of colors, black, white, and red my particular favorites.
its timeless: animal prints have been in fashion for decades and seem to resurface regularly, suggesting a classic appeal.
╰┈➤ cheetah print has had several notable moments in history where it gained significant prominence:
1920s and 1930s hollywood: actresses like carole lombard and marlene dietrich were known for wearing animal prints, including cheetah, which helped create its association with glamour and sophistication.
1950s: designers such as dior incorporated the prints into retro collections and had been popularized by celebrities.
1980s: the 80s were a significant decade for cheetah print, as it was embraced as part of the "power dressing" trend used to convey boldness and confidence. designers like versace incorporated cheetah print into their designs.
1990s: cheetah was prominently featured in music videos, tv shows, and magazines. beyoncé and financially accessible fashion brands helped popularize the pattern.
2000s: a resurgence of animal prints in fashion, including cheetah print, as part of the broader trend of incorporating bold, statement making patterns into everyday wear popularized by victorias secret.

keeping cheetah print glamours and sophisticated is key to maintaining the print's timeless look and executing an elevated look. using cheetah print in a classy way involves balancing its boldness with refined styling choices.
╰┈➤ here’s how you can incorporate cheetah print into modern, sophisticated outfits:
1. choose subtle accents like in accessories or shoes. cheetah print accessories such as scarves, belts, or handbags can add a touch of the pattern without overwhelming your look.
2. pair with neutral pieces, a balance of the print with neutral colors like black, white, beige, or navy helps keep the outfit grounded and chic.
3. focus on the texture of the piece. high quality fabrics such as silk, wool, or leather can elevate the look and add a touch of sophistication.
4. pay attention to the cut of the piece. garments with modern, elegant cuts and finishes complement the cheetah print. examples include a pencil skirt or a sleek blouse.

by incorporating cheetah print thoughtfully and combining it with classic, elegant elements, you can achieve a modern and timeless look that makes a stylish statement without being overwhelming; the key to successfully executing the trend.
