Corsets

So... I already have a corset that I love...It's obviously meant to worn with outfits (ie not sex wear) and gives of a more classy/elegant vibe . A few weeks ago on RockStar Inxs, the week Tara was kicked off, she wore a beautiful green, Asian print corset that I'm still thinking about. I think I've found 2 styles that could work, but I wanted your opinion. I would wear with jeans alone, or under blazer or shrug. Could this be stylish or would it be cheesy/cheap?


Here's my inspiration



Here is what I found for my interpretation. I like how they are also in an Asian print. The best thing is I emailed the seller and the length would work on my super long torso. Please imagine OUTSIDE of the boudoir.



Thoughts?

I think you can totally carry off that corset b/c you're a classy girl. I know with certain other people, they'd look (I'll just use the word) slutty in them. It just depends on how you carry yourself.

What I would worry about is the angle of the top part of the corset. Would it be too revealing?

I love the look and I think the top you found is probably the closest you are going to find.  That being said, if you are large chested, it might look too lingerie-ish.  If only it cut straight across like the one in the first pic, it would be perfect!

You are the person that can make these look classy! That green one is amazing! I like the navy one.

I like them .I think they would look cute with a shrug or a cardigan.

Have you tried to find one IRL? I know Charlotte Russe had some inexpensive pretty corsets not too long ago.

I love that green one - can you tell where it's from? - i know I figured out where a jacket i LOVED was from on the fashion area of that site (H&M, which doesn't help me at all). The navy is pretty too.
