As we end July with a focus on must have items for the summer season, one of Lingerie Fit Expert favorite items is day wear/play wear.  These are the items that cross over between lounge and hitting the town.  The best part is the incredible shaping solutions that are inclusive in the items.  That’s right, you don’t have to add another undergarment to look sensational.  In the heat wave we just experienced, who would want to add on another layer.   The new “it” shoe is the platform. Add this with your shapewear item and your hot mama in the city!

Finally, grab your sun screen, flip flops and tank top, summer is here!  The first item on my summer wardrobe list is always new tank tops.  Whether it’s pants, skirts or shorts, the tank is a multi-purpose life saving fashion essential.  If you’re on a summer getaway, how perfect to pull out a tank to go hang out at the pool or lounge and feel dressed.  Add some jewelry and voila!

I notice many women also become active during the summer with exercise regimens and outdoor activities.  Instead of using our ready to wear tank tops, purchase inexpensive camisoles and tanks that give you comfort and mileage for your money.

When you want a next level look, the tank is still a fabulous solution for evening attire.  This time the tank takes shape as the outerwear essential, but also provides a seamless and “fit” solution.  Step out in confidence knowing you look flawless.

Make this a fashionista must have on your summer shopping list!

In Style Magazine recently reviewed new bras for women.  It was well done, and wow what a collection.  It is so awesome to see that women of every size and shape can truly have their own style.

As I reviewed lingerie trends for spring, my favorite pick is vintage inspired lingerie.

Vintage is timeless, and if you’re a woman who likes to collect lingerie, it’s a must have. It appears that dresses and being ultra feminine is the key this season.  A vintage bra and panty set would be the ultimate accessory to your wardrobe. Regardless if you can not see it, you know how fabulous you feel and look.

It does not cost a fortune to do the vintage look.  Prices range from $24 to $60 for a bra and $10 to $30 for the bottom half.  Create a new expression of you with a return to classic intimate apparel that celebrates the old, but brings out a bold new woman in you!

I feel so honored that the passion I have for lingerie continues to grow when you hear someone say ” Thanks I really needed the help!” I walked away truly inspired to stay on my mission regarding the importance of a great fit. Some of the girls were college grads, others were women 50 plus who had felt a little self conscious about their body image. Take control today!

Did you know that every woman should own at least 10 or more pair of underwear?

Happy September!  My favorite time of the year is here.  The weather starts to change, and it’s layering time!  This week we are going to feature our clients and LFE favorites to get you ready for fall 09.   We begin with Panache B001/6.  This is a LFE must have for women who want a solution for sweater dressing and sheer vintage shirts. The first time I tried it I could not believe the lift!  No stress worrying if my rack would fall down.  I am sure you have been there…      Since the weather tends to be warmer until late September, you can wear it without a jacket and feel confident for a day to evening look depending on the occasion.  Sizes range from 32B to 42DD including triple D’s.  On the scale of 1 to 10, I call this one a 10 plus!

Chantelle 3582 - click for details

I have been a huge fan of Chantelle for years.  Every bra looks like a custom designed frolic that was cut and sewn just for you.  Chantelle is known for their attention to detail.  The fit is fabulous although on the small side.  I was lingerie shopping for a client and came across the C-Chic Style 3582.  This is a must have for the woman who wants it all.  The bottom of the cups is lightly lined for modesty, while the sheer top is all about being diva divine.  A woman who wears this hot little number has what I call the “confidence factor”.  It’s all about you!  Available from C to G Cups.  Fall may be cooler, but this one is sizzling…

Yummy Tummie TK 1009 (click for details)

I was recently interviewed by a magazine about trends in lingerie. She asked me what trend is the top request by most women. I responded that shapewear is taking center stage as a solution for women of every age. I believe if you have “issues”, you should never let it get in the way of looking good or feeling good. I preach what I know since I struggled for years with size and fit issues. You can absolutely have a new body with shapewear in an instant. Do you need to be smooth and a fashionista under a sheer blouse or shirt? Try a shapewear camisole like Yummie Tummie TK 1009. Looking for a lightweight solution in your pants and skirts, no need to feel like a sausage, try Body Wrap 47822. The magic of shapewear is that you can now “increase or decrease” the support intensity. Your issue can be resolved with a little secret underneath.
