As per SissyHousewife's suggestion, I bought a petticoat to plump up my new yellow dress. After discovering the used clothes markets, all sorts of previously unattainable clothes are suddenly at my disposal at considerably lower prices than on amazon.
The petticoat has, to me, always been the epitome of femininity in ladies' clothes because it takes their very essence - the skirt - and pushes it to the maximum by adding - from today's point of view - simply impractical amounts of volume and circumference to it. The petticoat has also been the epitome of unattainable clothes because the women in my life whose clothes I would dress up in wore, well, normal clothes. I don't mean to disparage them by no means, and I am very grateful to the services they - I can only hope - unwittingly provided to me, but I was still missing those exciting items that I would read, and later also wrote about. Stockings, garter belts, corsets, silky nightgowns and, of course, petticoats. The closest I could get to a petticoat was putting on all the skirts at my disposal at once. Great fun, actually, but it made the tidying up a bit tedious.
After starting buying my own clothes, I was also confined to the "normal" spectrum for while. Gradually, though, I started getting all of the kinky stuff, too. I had been toying with the idea of buying a petticoat for a while, but SissyHousewife's comment, and the newfound supply on the 2nd hand market made me finally pull the trigger last week, and, after some hiccups, the item finally arrived.
My first thought as I pulled it out of the envelope was that it was nowhere near stiff enough, but my disappointment lasted only until I tried it on under the yellow dress. While it is indeed not as stiff as I had hoped it would be, it does add considerable volume to the skirt of the dress, and makes it impossible to smooth it under my thighs as I sit down so that it now flares out around me. I guess just because it's not of cartoonish french maid proportions, it's still nice to wear.
I hope that you too, dear readers, have some or other such little something that brings a little fluff in your skirts and a little nice in your lives.
Dear Rosie:
ReplyDeleteYour posts here on what has become the memorial site to Bea are what bring the little fluff in my imagined skirts and a little nice in my life. You are brave and creative, and I thank you for taking the time to share an experience that I would never otherwise have.

I have the advantage Rosie of being a biological woman and an avid reader with as my other half states a strange liking for Feminine Domination Stories well written of course.My Rosie favourite is Balcony sooo superbly composed it's like an Aria it stands out sooo well,Is the star the same character as "Cheryl" in Swiss Miss Sissy? because that character has a similar profile to your Charlie and it is a great pity that Bambi via RocketDave has not put out more of Cheryl's escapades since her brush with Mistress Desiree and the Black Cloak's.
