Dr. Rey Shapewear

What’s the difference between an LBD that looks good and one that looks spectacular?  There’s a good chance it’s not the dress at all– it’s the undergarments you’re wearing beneath it. 

The right undergarments give you lift and shape in all the right places AND do it in a comfortable manner.  Since I’m always on the hunt for such treasures, I’m interested in the collaborative offering of Dr. Robert Rey (of Dr. 90210 fame) and Australian lingerie designer Bruno Schiavi: Dr. Rey Shapewear

  

Dr. Rey’s expertise in enhancement surgery and plastic reconstructive secrets combined with Bruno Schiavi’s experience in the lingerie/shapewear market offers women a unique range of body enhancing shapewear to disguise any imperfection and enhance a woman’s natural assets. The collection is for every woman who wants to improve her shape without going under the knife. Whether it’s bridal season or every day life, Dr. Rey Shapewear can completely transform the appearance of your body, providing you with confidence and satisfaction.

The line consists of high and low waist garments, body suits, corsets, t-shirts, bras, briefs, g-strings, swimwear, hosiery, and more. Shapewear prices start at $27; bathing suits at $32.50; and hosiery at $17.50.

Well I, for one, am 100% pro- “improving my shape” and anti- “going under the knife,” so I’m looking forward to trying it.  I’m particularly pleased with the price point, which is a steal if the items are as good as advertised.

Dr. Rey’s Shapewear is available at the following retailers:

Sears.com

BareNecessities.com

and HSN.com.

So have you worn Dr. Rey Shapewear?  And how often do you wear this type of garment– is it just for special occasions or more like everyday?

Yummie Tummie Nursing Tanks for The Postpartum Belly

You all know I’m a huge fan of Yummie Tummie tanks. I own at least 5 of them and wore them all the time before I got pregnant.

I was delighted to find out that Yummie Tummie makes a NURSING TANK!

The Yummie Tummie Nursing Tank Top is the ultimate tummy control nursing tank with secret shapewear built in. It’s designed to be worn on its own, or as a layering piece so you can get into your pre-pregnancy clothes faster. And who doesn’t want to do that?

The top offers moderate control and a nursing tank top all in one. Soft cotton fabric, spandex tummy panel. Specifically designed for nursing mothers with built in soft cup bra for comfortable support and convenient one-handed nursing clips.

The slick fabric of the midsection will not cling to clothes and the elongated design will not roll up. Extra long length, comes down over rear to provide some additional slimming. Yummie Tummie’s Nursing Tank instantly slims your entire postpartum silhouette from below the bust to the hips. Smooth away inches, or as Oprah says, “No More Muffin Tops!”

Check it out…

Yummie Tummie is absolutely the bomb and they were nice enough to send me one of their nursing tanks for me to try out as soon as I give birth in August. I am SO excited and I can’t wait to try it out! The nursing cups and clips look great so I really think I’m going to love it.

If you aren’t pregnant or nursing, check out Yummie Tummie’s regular tanks.

Have YOU tried Yummie Tummie tanks yet? What do you think?

Yoga Pants with Built In Shapewear for Real Women

Upstate New York yogawear company Bodsana has launched with a capsule collection of yoga pants designed for the woman who is underserved in today’s activewear market.

All Bodsana yoga pants sit at the natural waist and the company offers their signature Elimiline® pant with a built-in panty that extends to mid-thigh with lace trim to create a streamline, slimming look with no lines.

Bodsana Founder Nancy Causey, co-owner of the Half Moon Yoga Barn in Millbrook, NY, saw a gaping void in the yogawear market for women of her age (62).

“The Elimiline® pant was created from a need – my need. Being a yoga teacher, I live in yoga pants and panty lines were a constant issue. I also have a small, yet real, handlebar problem (you know, ‘muffin top’) and I am also past wanting to show my navel. I was desperate for a stylish pant that would not hang too low, “ explains Nancy.

The idea for Bodsana started when Nancy found a yoga pant that she loved because it sat at her natural waist. However, panty lines and ‘handle bars’ continued to plague her. Around the same time she discovered a pair of underwear, both expensive and delicate, that held her in and didn’t produce unsightly panty lines. She asked a local dressmaker if the two garments could be merged into one. “The process wasn’t easy, but it was comfortable and flattering, and every time Nancy wore this pant someone would ask her if she had lost weight. This amused her at first and then she became inspired. Wouldn’t everyone want to look as though they had lost weight while wearing their yoga pants?

All Bodsana yoga pants are made of a 14 oz. Cotton/Lycra blend (88%/12%) for added support, “they smooth out the lumps and bumps!” exclaims Nancy.

    The “Riki” Elimiline® Full-length Pant retails for $70, while the “Louise” Basic Full-length Pant retails for $60. The “Maggie” Elimiline® Capri retails for $66, and the “Sherri” Basic Capri, $56. The “Chippie” Basic Skinny Pant retails for $60. All styles are currently available in brown and black.

The first Bodsana pants went into production in the beginning of 2009 and the company has built a following throughout Millbrook, NY and the neighbouring towns all through word of mouth buzz. Nancy has found that women who fall in love with the pants tend to buy 4 or 5 five pairs because they can be worn for many things other than yoga. “At its core it’s simply a flattering pant that can be dressed up or down, and for that same reason they are great for travel as well,” explains Nancy.

You’re probably thinking, “Why don’t I just wear some shapewear panties under my regular yoga pants?” The truth is, you won’t get the same results. Because the shaping mid-thigh panty is sewn right into the pants, you get a seamless look and don’t have to worry about anything peaking out above the waist band when you bend over. And because the rise is higher than most yoga pants on the market, they are more comfortable and modest for all you baby boomers!

I absolutely love these pants and think they are definitely worth the price. They wear well, wash well and make you look great. That is priceless.

The pant is now available nationwide at www.bodsana.com. Follow Bodsana on Twitter @Bodsana to find out about new products.

Enhance Your Back Side With Padded Underwear

Yeah, I know what you’re thinking… “Um no way!” But seriously, some people just aren’t genetically gifted in the derriere department. Exercises may lift what you already have, but adding inches is a little more difficult.

Now you can instantly enhance your back side and the way your clothes fit, with Padded Panties, Panty Butt Enhancer Pads, Silicone Body Shapers and more from a cheeky little company called Bubbles Bodywear.

They were kind enough to send us a small selection of their offerings to try out and review. We couldn’t be more thrilled! Being someone who already has quite the bubble butt, I had to find some friends to try these out and my mom ended up being the most willing candidate!

After coaching her past the initial fear of wearing them in public, she wore the BubbleBuns Padded Boyshorts in black with a pair of grey skinny jeans. She looked FABULOUS. She was afraid that it would look like she was wearing padded underwear, but we both agree they look totally natural. We were both really impressed with the results! If you’re concerned about other people knowing you are padding your backside, DON’T BE.

If you are used to not having much going on back there, then yes, it will be a surprise to turn around, look in the mirror and see a nicely shaped bottom. Don’t let that scare you though. It’s not ridiculous or obvious. It just gives you a nice, natural looking curve. My mom is an extremely fit and healthy woman who looks amazing for her age and these undies made her look even better.

My mom also tried out the Silicone Leopard Panty. They looked good, but she thought they felt kinda heavy and would take some time to get used to wearing them. She preferred the BubbleBuns Padded Boyshorts because they had removable foam pads that were very lightweight and more comfortable to sit on.

What’s also interesting is that they were featured on The Today Show last week with Bobbie Thomas’s segment “Spring’s Most Unique Style Trends“.

Take a look at Bubbles extensive collection of padded underwear to find the pair that is right for you. They also have Bum Lifters & Booty Bras and Adhesive Silicone Bra which is perfect for wearing under your favorite summer clothes. More on that later!!

Plie is a Brazilian brand of Slimming Shapewear meant to be worn underneath your clothes to give you a smooth, sleek and sexy look without the appearance of bumps or bulges. Here’s what they have to say about the brand:

This line was designed to be worn all day with comfort in mind. The fabrics are specially selected for the steamy climate of Brazil- skin stays cool and dry.

Slimpressions: Shapewear for All Occasions!

slim

My wardrobe is full of pieces that almost look great – just a little too tight here, not so flattering there… While losing a few would be ideal, what am I to do in the meantime? I don’t have time to slim down before holiday parties, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to look fab! Thankfully, there is a miracle cure available – not a pill that will shed all the extra weight overnight, but one that will help me look better instantly!

Of course, I’m referring to Slimpressions! Slimpressions carries ten pieces of top quality shapewear, formulated to address all your “reconfiguring” needs. There are six tops and four bottoms, each designed to smooth certain areas like your stomach, butt, thighs, or upper arms. Each piece is a comfortable spandex nylon blend, and machine washable, which is a huge relief. I just don’t have time to hand wash my delicates, and I’m certainly not going to pay to dry clean them!

I was sent several pieces from the Slimpressions line; my breakdown of each fab piece is below.

1

The Haves – $72

~Gentle compression smoothes and shapes dreaded “arm flab.”
~Soft cups for natural chest coverage.
~Ribbed midriff for flab-u-less all around support.
~Long torso for tucking and layering.
~Tagless comfort.
~Seamless torso that cuves where you need it to.
~Mesh armpits for added breathability.

I love the soft, breathable material. Adding a more “breathable” armpit is genius, as shape wear can get really hot and cause overheating, which kills the sexy factor your shape wear has created in the first place! The long torso is also an amazing idea, as I often find that tops like this aren’t the right length and cause problems with a variation of outfits. And I’m excited about the inclusion of arm slimming!

If you’re wearing a sleeveless top but want all the other perks, check out the Tanks A Lot – $62.

2

The Have Nots – $72

This piece is identical to the one above, except that it obviously scoops down below your cleavage. Another innovation that I LOVE – I really like being able to wear my own bra, regardless of what other undergarments I have on. Much of the shape wear I’ve tried in the past has flattened my boobs, which is a huge bummer. This piece totally solves that issue!

The same scoop neck style is available without sleeves as well – it’s the Tanks A Little for $62.

3

If you’re rockin’ a sleeveless piece, check out The Skinny Minis – $58. It has the same tucking and contouring perks as the rest of the collection, but features super comfy spaghetti straps. I love this piece as a regular black cami under a sweet sweater; since the top doesn’t look any different than ordinary tops, no one knows about your secret slimming!

4

Comfort Bralette – $36

~No wires, hooks, seams, or padding.
~Lifts and separates, and oh, so comfortable!
~Great for all figures.
~Made of 5% Spandex, 95% Nylon.
~Plenty of smoothing comfort but light weight to wear comfortably under clothes.
~Easy care… machine wash cold with like colors in gentle cycle, tumble dry on low heat.

No wires or hooks – what a dream come true! I love bras like the Comfy Bralette for casual days, or ones where I’m hanging around the house. I don’t like being completely bra-less, so this is a perfect solution that provides support AND comfort. Every girl’s dream, right?

56


Moderate Control Brief for Shaping Tummy, Hips, and Rear – $33

Seamless Full Cut Panty with Light Compression – $24

These are two of the lower coverage bottoms from the Slimpressions line. Both are smoothing and comfortable with enough control to make pants and long tops more flattering. Whether you’re looking for light or moderate coverage, these pieces are perfect. And they feature non-binding, non-rolling waistbands.

78


Seamless Long Leg Shaper – $45

Hi-Waist Control Panty for Extra Tummy and Waist Shaping – $39

These are the second two bottoms from the Slimpressions collection; as you can see, one goes down on the leg while the other goes higher up on the torso. If you want a lot of coverage and control, pair these with your choice of Slimpressions tops!

I’ve really enjoyed incorporating Slimpressions into my wardrobe. My clothes look better and I feel more confident. The Full Cut Panties are my favorite, as they’re so comfortable that I don’t feel like I’m wearing shape wear, but notice a difference in how my clothes fit. The material is breathable and the pieces are well proportioned, so I don’t suffer from rolling, shifting, or tight straps. I know that I’ll look fab in all my party gear, and so will you! Slimpressions stock sizes Small – 4x, so most everyone is covered. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to Reconfigure Your Figure!
