One of the perks of running Cliterati is that I get invited to some weird and wonderful events. I'm really hoping that I'll get to go to the Erotic Awards at the Sex Maniacs' Ball. (I get three free tickets if Cliterati gets through to the finals. Although I guess I could always pay for tickets if we don't get through. But I want that award so badly because it's totally gorgeous, in a strange and kitsch kind of way.)
Anyway, I've also been invited to attend the Skin Two Expo and Rubber Ball. It looks like it should be a rather entertaining evening, to say the least. But the problem is, what to wear? This is one occasion when the generic little black dress just isn't going to cut it. And as I've potentially got two somewhat saucy events to go for, I can justify buying something new and lewd.
Start browsing around the Skin Two online shop and have fallen in love with half of the stuff on there. It reminds me of being a student when I used to wear mildly outrageous things, rather than the standard business attire I wear nowadays.
I start with the catsuits. Ever since seeing the Liberty X video for Sexy (yes, OK, I like cheesy music), I've wanted one and this catsuit looks exactly like the one in the video (would not accessorise with cowboy hat though. That's just odd.). But then, there's also this sexy little number which is utterly divine.
However, I'm really not conviced that I could get away with a rubber catsuit. It's a bit full-on for my first attempt to buy something pervy and I'm not sure that it would necessarily be the most flattering item of clothing in the world. Maybe if I was nearer 20 than 30, I'd have the guts.
I look for a little black dress (well, if it's rubber or PVC, surely that's rude enough?) Quite like this - but it's a little bit too sensible. But if this one delivers the uplift properties that the photo suggests, then my choice may be made... However, the model has a fantastic set of assets and I think mine somewhat pall in comparison so I move on.
This dress is really cute. As is this one. And they're PVC rather than rubber, which is probably way more comfortable. Or maybe a top and skirt would be more versatile? I mean, there aren't that many places a girl can wear a rubber catsuit but maybe the corset with jeans wouldn't be too full on?
I am pathetic. I'll probably wimp out and get a pair of these gorgeous gloves.
And team them with my little black dress.
