I would think that is probably a safety mechanism in your browser. It probably means GirdleBound doesn’t have heavy enough encrypting between you and their server when you want to buy something from them. Most modern browsers will ask you to not use these kinds of web shops. You can overrule the browser I would think, but there can be risks of your information getting on wrong hands. I hope my explanation can help you understand what is happening exquisitebones.

I think GreyAndWhiteCat is right. If you can't get it to work, just try emailing him and submitting your order this way, he's really helpful.

There is a gorgeous pantygirdle availible on stockingshq!! I have never seen those before. That will be perfect for me, since my girdles and corselettes always comes down so low, making it difficult to wear panties over. Any thoughts on pantygirdles?

I wear them a lot -- they're especially good if you expect to be moving around a lot because they give you a bit more flexibility. The main disadvantage is that the garters may hang lower than on a regular girdle, and your stockings may be too long. I often buy shorter stockings than I'd ordinarily wear to use with panty girdles.

I love them. I really like the Rago Diet-Minded ones. They're a little lighter control so they're very comfortable for everyday wear.

Lizzie is right about the garters being longer, but most are removable so you can replace them with shorter ones if you like.

Who else can I tell?

I just got my first real vintage bullet bra today! I feel like I have two mt fujis on my chest lol I also wanted it to go with my many tight sweaters, but I wonder if it will attract a little more attention than I'm comfortable with...I feel a little like a superhero...."Which way? That way to the batmobile!" (Pointing Mt Fuji)

:eusa_clap Brilliant! I don't think I could ever make that transition...I'm too used to them being round, guess they're more Appalacian than Rockies (or Mt Fujis)

Girdle Advice?

Hey ladies, I am a big fan of the pencil skirt and have many gathering dust because I need a nice tummy flattener. That little pooch suddenly looks very big in most of those skirts :mad: (My new bullet bra has inspired me to get them back into circulation ;) ) I really don't know what to look for [huh] I'm about a 28-29 waist and 37 hip. How do I size these? I have a modern pair that are like shorts, but they don't do much. I was thinking of the hi-waist open kind with attached garters. Any input would be great.

This works great. ;) It cinches in the back and zips in the front. It also has detachable garters. It flattens the stomach, while cinching, for an hour glass shape. While I wouldn't wear it every day, it is nice for those days you want to look extra-thin. I'm on my second one... For your measurements, I'd get a small.

plus a pair of sheer knickers and seamed stockings.

hepburn and leigh has a code WELCOME for 15% for new shoppers. I was powerless. I bought the vargas dress for 36. USD. Girdlebound charges 88. I am so weak!

I can't wear anything that stops right below my ribs. I am 'very ribby', does that make any sense. I have a large rib cage and stuff that stops right there pulls my waist in further and makes me ribs look like overhang that with whatever extra i do have on my waist...is very not cute. this is why i hate the panty girdle. that and the rubber on the thighs...ouch.:rage:
