No commentsBy Chris LeRoy
Corsets are not necessarily the easiest thing to buy. Referring to of course, a real, traditional corset and not just one of those tops with the corset name that everyone is wearing just about everywhere. A corset gives you an hourglass shape, trims your waist line and improves your posture all at the same time. Many women wear them simply for how they feel in one, knowing that everything is pulled in tight and some use it specifically for waist training. Corsets are a favorite article of clothing for brides too.
An authentic corset will hold its shape over years and be durable offering you sensuality as well as being very functional. Quality materials and reinforced stitching will ensure you that you will be wearing it for years to come.
Corsets are made and sold by waist size in increments of 2 inches, generally from size 18 to 40. An authentic corset is meant to be ordered four inches smaller than your waist measurement. You will need to take measurements around the absolute fullest part of your bust, smallest part of your waist and at the top of your hip bones. If you have measurements that are really out of the ordinary, than you can get a corset made just for you. Some corsets are also available with detachable suspenders for wearing stockings. Not all corsets will include this feature so if this is something you are interested in then make sure you are getting the proper one.
Keep in mind that corsets, like a pair of shoes, need a break in period. Do not try to pull your corset too tight at first or you can damage the eyelets. After a few wears you will be able to pull it as tight as you want. If you plan on wearing it often, you might want to think about wearing a chemise or a tube top under to protect it from constant perspiration. It is recommended to sprinkle powder on the torso and refrain from wearing lotions as they can cause staining of the fabric. Most authentic corsets will be dry clean only however, you will be able to spot clean it with a mild cloth. Never throw it in the washing machine and never attempt to use any type of detergent on it.

What is the Correct Way for Doing up a Corset?
By Chris LeRoy
Corsets may not be as easy as just sliding into your favorite tank but the results that it does to your figure are worth the extra time you spent getting dressed. To ensure comfort, do not lace your corset up too tight the first few times. You need to allow it time to mold naturally to your body and your body needs time to get used to the idea of wearing one.
It is of course; easiest if someone can assist you in putting your corset on but this rarely an option so you handle the task by yourself. All woman are not Scarlett O’Hara from Gone With the Wind and do not have an assistant to pull the ribbons tight while they hold onto the bed post. You will want to loosen the lacing enough for you to get into it. Once you are into the corset, fasten up the front clasp, starting at the top and working downward. Now comes the tricky part. Reach around to the back and gently pull the loops and tighten the lacing, progressing toward the center from the bottom and the top. This may seem tough the first few times but you will get used to it. Don’t try to look in the mirror to do this; it will only frustrate you that everything is backwards.
There is a method called Tight lacing that someone practice for a waistline rewarding tactic. It is the act in which the wearer typically wears their corset night and day, constantly pulling the waste tighter. Once a reduction of two to four inches occurs, the wearer then graduates down to a smaller size corset. This is repeated until the wearer reaches their goal waist size. This does stir up some controversy of being unhealthy or harmful to your body but most feel if done properly it can be effective and not hurtful.
It is also important to always remember when wearing your corset for the first few times it is absolutely of the utmost importance to give your corset that break in period that it needs. This not only prevents damage to the corset but it also prevents your body from feeling discomfort.

Harley Davidson Boots Can Protect Your Toes As Well As Keep Your Feet Temperate.
By Michael Alden
I am thankful I had a first-class pair of motorbike boots on as I was out motorbike riding on my previous road excursion.
The day started out cloudy and a bit cool as I headed out to get together with a few associates for a day run up in the mountains. Because of the coolness I decided to dress in a hooded sweatshirt, leather-based motorcycle jacket also chaps. I also determined to put on a good quality pair of steel toed motorcycle boots to help keep my feet toasty and dried out. Of course! I did wear my helmet as well. Hey, I am no dummy, how else was I going to keep my ears snug. So at any rate, I met up with my friends, drank a cup of coffee and we hit the road.
Visibility wasn’t terrible except for the drizzle that kept forming on my visor. I would wipe the rain off and in approximately a half of a instant the drizzle would coat my visor again. It was a little difficult to see, but we rode on.
Because of the mist the streets shined and had a slippery layer on them. We weren’t going over the speed limit of 45 mph but do to the highway conditions that was amply rapid.
My friend Jim was the head motorcycle Sammy was next and I was third. Jim singled with the intention to stop for fuel, so at the next place we stopped. We all fueled up got one more cup of coffee, chatted and horsed around a bit whilst we drank the coffee, then started out again.
Boy it felt fantastic to finally have my motorbike out of the garage after the lingering winter weather we had. Isn’t it always so pleasant that first bike ride of the year?
Finally after roughly an hour and a half into the ride the sun began to shine. It had hardly started to peek through the clouds when out of nowhere a station wagon full of young people pulled out from a side street exactly in front of us.
Jim saw it coming and was able to turn sharply to the left scarcely in time to avoid it and go past. Sammy saw it a tad late and laid his motorcycle down. His bike slid under the mini-van while Sammy slid on the street just to the right of the small bus.
Unhappily for me, I was the last to notice the small bus and by the time I did, I was already soaring over the top. Yeah that’s right; I collide with it straight in the side door and was projected over the top subsequently landed on my face on the other side.
I thumped the road violently, slid for about forty five feet, then my motorcycle boot caught the side of a hole or something and I started to flip like a rag doll. When my motorcycle boot jammed on what ever it did, it felt like my lower leg had just been ripped off.
I finally came to rest face first in the oncoming traffic lane. Its’ a good thing there was no approaching traffic at that time. It’s also a good thing for helmets, leather jackets, leather chaps and full finger leather gloves.
I am specially grateful for steel toed leather motorcycle boots though, for the reason that the pothole I hit, turned out to be a pothole on the edge of a steel manhole cover, so when my foot caught it, half of the leather got taken off of form the toe. The steel toe part was there but the cow hide was gone. I am thankful because, with out the steel toe part of the motorcycle boot, more than likely I would have lost my toes, if not my whole foot.
I got fortunate! I ended up with only a few bruises. I didn’t even break a bone. I presume I can attribute it to fate, but I know sporting the right motorcycle boots and attire had a large amount to do with it.
