Posted on December 21, 2009 in Camisoles,Panties,Shapewear Solutions,Underwear We Love Tags: Boyshorts, Camisole, Clothing, Foundation garment, Lingerie, Undergarment

TC 444 Shapewear Camisole (click for details)

As the year draws to a close we took a poll of our client’s favorites and the winner was hands down the TC 444 Shapewear Camisole and A406 Boy Short. One of my clients, Gail Mitchell of Palm Springs, CA, remarks on the fit of both items:

“I love my life and my new figure after loosing over thirty pounds in my mid 60′s. I purchased the TC Camisole and Boy Shorts and was amazed at the flattering fit and comfort of the garments. My friends noticed that I started wearing more body conscious clothing including my new hot mama Ralph Lauren Jeans. The boy shorts don’t smash, they actually enhance my new shape. I would recommend to anyone! ” Gail Mitchell

You go Gail! We selected the TC Camisole because it has become a solution for “every woman”. This is our motto here at Lingerie Fit Expert. The goal of any bra, shapewear or underwear should be to help a woman find solutions that work with her wardrobe or figure challenges. Time and time again we have seen both the camisole and underwear do this and more. Click on the link to find out more about these fabulous shapewear solutions.

What to Wear? Shapewear Solutions for Party Dresses

Posted on December 18, 2009 in Panties,Shapewear Solutions Tags: Clothing, Cocktail dress, Dress, Lingerie, Skirt, thong, Undergarment, Women

Now that the holiday shopping frenzy is coming to a stop shortly, it’s now time to focus on solutions for holiday dresses and attire that make a woman feel confident underneath it all. Two of our favorites are the TC Fine Intimates Thong 430 and the Extra Firm Thigh Slimmer 499. Two different concepts, but a proven winner for women who want to boldly walk into a room and not worry about “issues”.

TC Fine Intimates Thong 430 (click for details)

The thong features a semi-high waist for those challenging “burrito rolls”. One of my clients a physician who lives in Los Angeles once said, “Control thong? Wow that is such an oxymoron”. However, she is still a fan today as are so many women of this product. The tight black skirt or sheer dress that requires no lines is a perfect match with this undergarment. Both items feature the “Wonderful Edge”©.

Extra Firm Thigh Slimmer 499 (click for details)

When thinking of the words Extra Firm, I used to get scared with the concept as it pertains to shapewear. TC has made it magical as the garment not only fits snuggly on a woman’s body, but the engineering and support allows for it to sculpt your figure instantly! The seaming provides shaping on the rear. Surgery is not required to wear the hot mama dress. The 499 is your new friend who shapes you and does not tell your secret! The best part, you can drink, eat and be merry (even laugh) without being in pain. Both of these items are available up to 2XL.

Holiday Trend 09 – The retro inspired cocktail dress is back. The cut tends to be narrow and very slim. Be confident in shapewear solutions that fit and flatter your figure.

The Holiday Essentials – Luxury Loungewear

Posted on December 11, 2009 in Loungewear Tags: Clothing, Hoodie, Lingerie, Shopping, Undergarments

Arlotta Cashmere Hoodie (click for details)

I am a lounge diva to the max. When I am home it’s all about the hoodie, the lounge pants and the tank top. I ran across the Arlotta and my heart stopped. It was love at first sight. Starting with Arlotta Cashmere Hoodie 3220 and Draw String Pants 2024. Cashmere is the ultimate in luxury. This is stunning and the features make the price point worth the investment.

Arlotta 2024 (click for details)

It has a zipper and pockets which in turn allows you to mix and match. You know me if you read my blogs I am always finding a way to take lingerie to another level by combining it with outer wear. Yes, this one could go with your daily wardrobe. The ultimate gift for any woman is a bath robe. Arlotta does it again with a Cashmere Robe style 2011. As Campbell’s Soup says MM Good! I would curl up in a chaise lounge in this one. Has your special someone been asking what to buy you? You have my full permission to forward, cut and paste…Dreams do come true!

The Holiday Essentials – Hanky Panky

Posted on December 9, 2009 in Camisoles,Panties,Sexy Lingerie Tags: Clothing, Hanky Panky, Lingerie, Shopping, Undergarment, Underwear

8 Candy (click for details)

How could we review the best in lingerie for the holidays and not mention intimate apparel power house Hanky Panky…The collections are fun, feminine and creative. This is on every woman’s list as a must have even if you’re a shy girl. As I reviewed the new collections for holiday I had to share my favorites. The 8 Candy Rolled Pack is ideal for the stocking stuffer gift. How cute is this! It looks just like candy but instead it’s spicy panties.

Hanky Panky 4911 (click for details)

The low rise 4911M Modernist collection of thongs is another great gift idea. Hanky Panky is known for the world’s most comfortable thong. Give a friend (or yourself) a collection to begin your obsession with these top picks.

The Panty Party 1390LS Camisole is in my shopping cart. Done! Wow, I love this for my jackets and night on the town. In our previous blog, we talked about how to line this or wear it alone with the TC 444 Camisole.

Panty Party 1390LS (click for details)

Holiday Trend 09 – Lace is a must have in every woman’s lingerie drawer. If you have sensitivity, try a brand like Hanro that offers Mercerized Cotton.

The Holiday Essentials – Gift Ideas for The Expecting Mom

Posted on December 7, 2009 in Nursing/Materinity Solutions Tags: Family, La Leche League, Lingerie, Mother, Pregnancy, Women

La Leche League 4200 (click for details)

I recently did a segment for the program Life Changers on Extra for a new mom. She had been struggling to find the right size bra and solutions for her wardrobe. Beginning this month, we are kicking off our focus on maternity/nursing. It’s a challenge for so many women. The La Leche League Daywear top style 4200 is perfect for women who want function and solution. You’re able to comfortably nurse without having to strip down to several layers. I would consider this a great gift for a new mom or expecting mother. La Leche League also features sleep and lounge wear for active moms.

La Leche League 4365 (click for details)

You can go from the bedroom to the carpool lane if needed. Style 4365 has been a favorite of my clients. The pull down elastic top for nursing is a plus. It’s important to remember that a woman’s body changes numerous times during pregnancy. The ideal gift is one that allows her to feel feminine, but yet comfortable as she embraces her body and new lifestyle. We look forward to sharing more advice for expecting mom’s monthly in our blog.

The Holiday Essentials – Sexy Shape Solutions

Posted on December 4, 2009 in Camisoles,Panties Tags: Camisole, Fashion, Lingerie, Panties, Polo neck

DKNY 631007 (click for details)

DKNY has been one of my favorites for years. The price point is reasonable and the fit is great. DKNY camisole 631007 can be layered under a suit or worn under a turtle neck or v-neck sweater. Depending on the length of the jacket or top, the lace could be shown as a peek-a-boo affect. Complete the look with the DKNY 676007.

DKNY 676007

The shape provides full coverage while the back provides a total seamless solution with the thong. Women have always asked me if it’s possible to have shape and be sexy. Question answered with this one.

Holiday Fashion Trend 09 – Sparkle tops are hot this year. Using a shapewear camisole gives a girl confidence to remove the cumbersome bumps and lumps. Shine diva!

The Holiday Essentials – Shapewear

Posted on December 2, 2009 in Panties Tags: Basics, Clothing, Fashion, Little Black Dress, Prom, Shopping, Undergarments

TC Fine Intimates 4125 (click for details)

How many holiday parties have you worn shapewear and were uncomfortable? All the ladies in the room said “YES”. I know the first time I ever wore a control brief I was 18 attending prom and wishing the night would have ended at 9:00. OUCH! I am in pain…TC Fine Intimates have heard the cries (literally) of women everywhere. The new 4125 Light Control Shaper Brief is spectacular. This is the ultimate in total comfort, total control. Melts on the skin like your wearing nothing, and shapes the places where you need it most. As we enter holiday party central, you have got to add this one to the list. I enjoy the fact that you can wear any bra and create the right solution for you. As we mentioned, strapless is a common necessity this time of year. Add a convertible bra that is either molded or not, and create a total one piece illusion. Get your party on girlfriend!

Holiday Fashion Trend 09 – The “Little Black Dress” should be in your closet at all times for the unexpected party invitation.
