Nippies, the patch of freedom

Filed under: Accessories, Swimwear and Lingerie

nippies patch of freedomWe've talked about little things that we use here and there to help with a temporary nip or tuck - fashion tape to keep necklines in place, regular old double-sided tape for the same idea, and breast petals from Lauren Silva. I've come across another brand similar to breast petals called Nippies, which is company based out of Venice, California. Nippies are called the "patch of freedom" because they allow you to wear 1) all those tops that would otherwise expose straps, or 2) any top when you just want to go au naturel. Nippies will be especially helpful this Holiday season when you want to slip into that slinky cocktail dress.

Nippies are availble online from their website at www.nippies.net. They come in different shapes, sizes, and "patterns."

Since we're free to go bare legged, the best thing we can do to help tuck our tummy in without the help of Dr. 90210 is a girdle. Don't be afraid of the word. I know it sounds like some horrible thing that your grandmother used to wear in the '50s, but these days, we can call them "shapers." Spanx is an entire line of underthings that help "shape" us where we might have a little too much shape.
