The style of underwear we select is very personal.  Some women refuse to wear anything but a thong, and some argue they would never be caught with one on, give me the full coverage solution.  It appears over the years that the full brief has been forgotten.  I have graduated many of my clients from the lady briefs to new hip solutions such as boy shorts, thongs and hipsters.  As we were reviewing fall, I wanted to make sure this solution was not left out.  You may want to consider putting this one on the list.  Fall and winter brings cooler temps and layers are a must!  Many of our clients have remarked how they have paired a camisole and a full brief as a warm wear solution.  The brief also has no panty lines.  Ok, I heard what you said…it’s not sexy.

This is not true anymore.  The vintage inspired trend as we saw at the Emmy’s recently is huge.  Vintage underwear that is modernized for today’s diva is very fun and colorful!   Pants are the number one trend this season.  The brief is your counterpart to fashion success.  I even had my own wow moment when trying on a dress recently while wearing a brief.  It slimmed, trimmed and toned without having to wear a shaper.  A small bit of advice, don’t purchase the lady pants to large.  They will tend to bunch and bag under your clothes.

I admit I am a TV Junkie and channel surfer.  I am amazed at the growing number of infomercials for shapewear products.  I receive emails from my clients with the common question, do they work?  I am a believer every product has a consumer and a solution.  How it works and what you need it for is really up to you.   I recommend products that not only fit, but are confirmed winners from our clients.  Here are a few of our favorites:
