Shapewear is a personal thing! This season I will help you in the privacy of your own home, consider me your girlfriend that tells you “no more panty lines”! Proper undergarments can help you enjoy your day, so remember you can always visit a bra fitting specialist at Nordstrom’s or Dillard’s. You should be doing this once a year, especially if your weight has fluctuated up or down.

Let’s talk body shapers that will make momma happy! Did you know that Spanx® is the number one company in the US for slimming our lines? Sara Blakley is a millionaire a few times over. She also created the line Assets® which is sold out at Target online; which shows you that shopping for your underpinnings is crucial. I have personally test driven each of these fine under garments.

For a shapely 2011 Fall season, from one mom to another, here is what you will need!

 

1. Tummy and Thighs:
Featured on Oprah in June 2009, my favorite tummy and thigh slimmer, found here at www.HerRoom.com for only $35 in black or dark beige, with moderate control.

 

 

2. All Over Slimming:
My favorite one piece by Spanx® is the “Slim Cognito Shape-Suit” style no. 345, priced from $98 to $102, so worth the investment. Hand wash and line dry, it will last forever! Trust me!
