I have an Amazon list that I shared with TD. I will get packages randomly, and it really is a mystery what I get. I know I can easily go to the list and look at the 'purchased' items, but what fun is that?

The following will be the wearable things.

This is a front-clasp posture bra that basically helps slim the waist. It looked unnatural to me since my hips are wider. Maybe I needed a bigger size; this is 2xl. But easy-ish to breathe in at least. I got one that clasps in the back, but after getting this one on, I realized the other one would be too hard for me to clasp on my own. I think it did help with my posture when I was wearing it.

Next is a long-sleeved sweater dress/sleep shirt. Not sure of its exact title. But it's comfy, and I would wear it to bed if it wasn't so hot out! It's really comfy, but just too hot to wear it regularly. There were other designs; at the time of ordering, this was the only one available in my size.

Beautiful butterfly dress. Perfect for summer. I originally wanted this dress to match a dress my daughter has. This one kinda matches the spin test (when you spin, it fluffs up a bit). It's a stretchy material, so it kinda attaches to the skin a little.

Next are the more scandalous things. 3 types of Lingerie. All from Avidlove.

Lingerie is lingerie. You may wear it a lot or not often. I had a fan going while taking these pictures. (The fan was going because it's hot, not for effect) So it might be fuzzy.

Originally, I wanted a purple one, but I received a white one.

Unlike their American counterparts, however, I was still a law student in Germany at the time and therefore had no access whatsoever to the traditional symbols of Yuppie success: designer suits, luxury watches, sports cars, or exclusive squash clubs. Consequently, the book does not accurately reflect my own lived reality. By the time I entered professional life in 1989, the Yuppie era had already begun to fade. I belonged rather to the post-Yuppie generation: those who consciously witnessed the lifestyle, yet never fully embodied it.

In any event, the term "Yuppie" was never embraced in Germany with the same confidence and enthusiasm as in the United States. It always carried a faintly ironic, if not outright critical, undertone. Perhaps this was simply Germany's way of signalling that conspicuous ambition and material success should be enjoyed discreetly and preferably accompanied by a modest expression of guilt.

Amazon published the above as my customer review. And then they deleted it without explanation. Apparently, even a book review about the 1980s must first pass contemporary ideological quality control.
