P.S. Just in case, I've changed my nick, I was NutriGirl until today. :)
I never got into bustiers until I tried one on this February by Malene Grotrian, and then it was implanted in my brain as a must-buy. They're so versatile!
I love the back of the LaROK dress you picked out, CC. :-)

Vitania
Wow, gorgeous bustiers, but the first three are amazing!
Corsets and bustiers are d best expression of wat clothing is supposed to do, which is hide ur flaws and flaunt ur assets :o]
These are amazing bustiers! They are so sexy and fem. Love it.

I love bustiers...so sexy and classy.
XOXO
I adore the navy one shoulder runway one. I also really like the look on sundresses this summer, very cute!
sexy!
it's way too hot to do any bustier layering here, but i love some of these pretty dresses, especially the last few photos. those pants are a dream! i've seen them somewhere before. very cool.
I have such admiration for the ladies who torture themselves for the sake of high fashion...beautiful!
I love this post and want it all!
gorgeous! happy 4th, lady couture!
How I wish I could pull off a corset; that one-shouldered navy one has me reconsidering. So chic!
I love corset detailing on that stiletto as well. There's a great way for all of us to incorporate the look!
oh my i love those shoes! altho i've never heard of Alexandra Neel....will have to check her stuff out now
I love corsets. I have 1 and love it sooo much!
Loving the Zac Posen looks... I adore wearing my corsets. I have two proper ones I've worn with massive skirts as ballgowns. Wish I could break 'em out as work wear tho ;-D Xxxc
lovely :D
I wonder how lady thirty would look in a bustier ;)
xo
I love bustiers! they are amaziiiiing
Great post- I have a cute denim corset from TopShop...great find! Happy 4th!
I have a few corsets and let me tell you....they can put cleavage on a 14 yr old boy ;D They work! Also forces you to sit up straight...
it looks amazing and so daring when the bustier is worn as an outer garment.

You've inspired me to rummage through and find those bustiers I haven't worn in ages...I wonder if I still have them? I also love the casual feel to the sleeved dresses.
Oh & thanks for the link, hon :)

What a great combination of sultry, classic and downright sexy!
I never really had one, maybe I should give one a try!
you can never go wrong with a perfect corset! It's like the perfect mix of sex and class. That Cavalli dress is just moth atering. I remember when Snejana wore it back in the Spring 2007 collection, my heart skipped a beat. Anyways, I know it's been forever since I last paid a visit. So I hope everything is well.
loves it.
I LOVE bustiers although I sadly don't own one yet. They bring out the feminine shape in ways that few other items can. Sexy sexy sexy!
erin wasson wears it so casual. i like!
awesome!!! love those corset pants with those stiletto pumps very hot!!! fantastic post!!

Hello Couture Carrie...I love reading your blog and I was wondering how you could help me. I'm a very fashion conscious person...thanks to your blog and similar others...But in my town I don't have access to better private label designers. I was hoping you could give me a top ten list or more of your favorite online boutiques that have price points between $250.00 and $1,000.00 per item. I LOVE fashion accessories too. Please feel free helping me get very fashion creative.
All other commenters, please feel free to contribute your favorite top 10 list as well.
Sincerely,
A Fashion Conscious Personality
Gorgeous corsets, especially the pink Pirelli Calendar. Lovely and feminine!xo
Congratulations to Jennny!
