Posts with tag control top

It's always good start with a solid foundation -- and by "solid foundation," I'm talking about keeping your curvaceous curves from wiggling, jiggling, and bulging all over the place. In the past, we could rely on the control top of pantyhose, but no one, and I mean no one, still wears pantyhose, do they? Do they?!?!

Since we don't get control top, and given that Dr. 90210's appointment book is probably filled up until 2010 (the stitches wouldn't heal by the time you had to go to your event anyway), the best thing we can do to tuck in our tummies 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.

So suck it in, spank it into place, and don't breathe for the rest of the night.

There is absolutely no way that the semi-glamorous B-list celeb you happened to spy at the table next to you at lunch today looks that put-together naturally. Sure, she's probably blessed with a speedy metabolism, and maybe her grandmother really does have a porcelain complexion, but when it comes to what she puts on, she's got help. Let's just call them "fashion fake-outs," little hidden secrets that help make you look fabulous.

Shapeshifting - No one, and I mean no one still wears pantyhose, do they? I hope not. However, the one good thing about those ridiculous things was the control top. 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."
