			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> I&#8217;m pleased and elated to see my corset on a lovely model on the cover of &#8220;Please, Sir,&#8221; from Cleis Press, due out in May, 2010.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.exquisiterestraint.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Cover_Please-Sir-300x300.jpg" alt="&quot;Please, Sir&quot; book cover" title="&quot;Please, Sir&quot; book cover" width="300" height="300" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-254" /></p>
<p>This magic was created by my homegirl, <a href="http://christinekessler.com/">photographer Christine Kessler</a>, and she found out from me, via Facebook, that they went with that photo.  She&#8217;s supplied a few photos to Cleis Press.  Needless to say, I&#8217;m a fangirl of Cleis Press and Rachel Kramer Bussell, so this makes me very happy.</p>
<p>I think this is another shot from the same photo shoot.  I&#8217;m very familiar with the setting&#8230; it was a loft where Scar 13 used to live, and she was the hot decorator of the place.<br />

<p>So where&#8217;s the corset now?<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Leprechauns got this one done just in time!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.exquisiterestraint.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/OB_green-StP-3qtr-517x1023.jpg" alt="Green Overbust, St. Patrick&#039;s 2010" title="Green Overbust, St. Patrick&#039;s 2010" width="517" height="1023" class="alignleft size-large wp-image-249" /></p>
<p>It&#8217;s available in my Etsy store, <a href="http://www.exrezcorsets.etsy.com ">www.exrezcorsets.etsy.com </a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve listed very expensive expedited/rush shipping so you can get it in time for March 17th.  I will return the shipping to normal after midnight this Saturday if no one buys this baby.</p>
<p>It has a 23 inch waist, which means you should have about 26 inch waist.<br />
The bust ranges from 34B to a healthy 34C&#8230; you may love it with a bra and pasties.<br />
The front is 16 inches long, which means it may cover a bit more mufty&#8230; which is wonderful for your big tease on March 17th!</p>
<p>If you are hankering for this, and want to bypass logging in to Etsy, OR, you don&#8217;t need expedited shipping, just <a href="http://www.exquisiterestraint.com/contact.html">CONTACT ME</a> here at Exquisite Restraint.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you love corsets, or just discovered them, I am giving a presentation next weekend at Threshold Dungeon in North Hollywood, California.</p>
<p>I know a corset is a huge investment. If you live in Southern California and have been thinking about ordering one, now is your chance to meet me and see some of my work firsthand.<br />
You&#8217;ll also see some history, some interesting tidbits, and watch me put my costume degree to work!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had a long association with the good folks at Threshold.  This is a private club, but this event is open to the public. I encourage you to come&#8230; you&#8217;ll be among good folks!</p>
<p>Threshold is proud to present</p>
<p>June&#8217;s Kink Academy:</p>
<p>SIMONE and EXQUISITE RESTRAINT CORSETS</p>
<p>presents</p>
<p>&#8216;WHAT IS A CORSET?&#8221;</p>
<p>Saturday, June 20</p>
<p>7 PM</p>
<p>(Doors open at 6:30 PM)</p>
<p>Location:</p>
<p>Hollywoodland Studios</p>
<p>11300 Hartland Street</p>
<p>North Hollywood, CA 91605</p>
<p>(Entrance in back of the building)</p>
<p>Admission:  $5 for Members and Affiliates</p>
<p>$10 for Guests and Non-Members</p>
<p>The entire BDSM community is welcome to attend (age 18 years old and up).<br />
Threshold membership is not necessary to attend.</p>
<p>The presentation will cover:</p>
<p>~What is a corset?</p>
<p>~Brief  history of corsetry</p>
<p>~Some construction aspects and secrets</p>
<p>~How to buy a proper corset and what exactly is a proper corset</p>
<p>~Demo with live models, a chance for attendees to try on some stock corsets</p>
<p>All attendees are eligible for a 15% discount on a new corset order if they attend this event</p>
<p>Simone, owner of Exquisite Restraint Corsets, has served the community for 9 years and brings her career as a theatre and film costumer with extensive corset knowledge to Kink Academy and SMU.</p>
<p>Not to be taken for granted, modern people own corsets and wear them, but  corsets come with a historical pedigree and are a profound source of fascination, even a fetish, for many, while merely a unique fashion item for others.</p>
