5 Shapewear Essentials

Hey Curvies!!!!

This post is long overdue. I literally thought to myself, "you can tell everyone what you're wearing but you don't tell people what is underneath." I guess I told myself off! Some of the shapewears below you may have heard of, but this post is different because these 5 shapewear essentials are also seasonally based. What I wear under a dress in the Summer time may not be the same garment I wear in the Winter.


Tights

Tights are a girls bestfriend AND control tights are the absolute best thing in the WORLD! These located here are seriously my new favs. These go on without a hitch and last a very long time. I love to wear tights in the cold months, because I get to give my shapewear a break.

Spanx (Thigh Length)

Spanx are located here I know, I know you are probably tired of hearing about how great a good pair Spanx are, but I can not deny the fact they are awesome lightweight shapewear. I usually wear Spanx with jumpsuits because it smooths everything out. Spanx are perfect for the Spring and Summer time because they are light and airy.

Spanx (Panty)

These are located here and are perfect year round!!! I wear the panty spanx under work slacks, tights that are not control tops, jumpsuits, and leggings. Occasionally wear my panty spanx with too short dresses because my thigh length shapewear is too long (see above picture) to control my stomach and booty. 

Wal-Mart Shapewear

These are located here and have to be the best kept secret in AFFORDABLE shapewear. Only $13!!! I absolutely positively love these because they make bodycon dresses worth while! The boning in the back helps them stay up and the gripping in the leg area prevents them from rolling up. Now I highly recommend these for the Fall and Winter, because they do not have ventilation.

Lane Bryant Shapewear 

These located here are perfect with flowy maxi dresses and skirts. These are super light but controls the giggle and restricts inner thigh rubbing. Now these are not heavy duty so don't count on them sucking everything in, because they are light weight.

The Return Of The Cheetah


Hello everyone!

This is the third look for Kareem of Big Bella Donna and I's collaboration for the ENTIRE month of February, "Colors of Love."


I am one of those people who is still in love with peplum anything. Literally! So it was only right that I wear my super cute peplum dress for this post. This dress is super comfy and hug my curves like nothing else. The bright vibrant color was everything in the early morning sunshine!


I decided to pull out my old cheetah print faux fur jacket. I am really not sure why I haven't brought it out sooner, but it was the perfect coat to turn this look up. Oh, and it wouldn't be winter without knee high boots. I got the boots for steal!!!

Style Notes: This dress is true to size and I am wearing a 2x. I sized up in the jacket because of the lining, I am wearing a size 2. These boots are wide calf friendly and I sized down to a 9.
