    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Watch Your Carriage, Madame! A Guide to Good Posture

    My posture is good thanks to my mother jabbing me in the ribs each time I slouched over lol I also do an exercise called the Stomach Vacuum, and not only does that keep my waist trim but it props up my back muscles as well. I've had many instances of people eyeing me and then saying "I would...
