Those silhouettes...

Celebrities and those perfect hour glass figures... They all seem to have smooth curves with no lumps, muffin tops, tummy rolls and bumps. 
Their secret?

Shapewear!

All of them, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, Lindsay Lohan, Adele, Beyonce, Kristen Stewart, Tyra Banks... They wear shapewear underneath their dresses to give them that silhouette- The flat stomach and smooth curves.

I just love these before and after shots of regular people in shapewear!

Simply Yours Introduction to Shapewear

Confidence: It's complicated

Mirror Mirror on the wall....

*yey* Friday... and the weather is perfect too.
ok, alright, back to the blog before hitting the spots.

#Shapewear- what is shapewear? simple, its clothing you wear with the intent of enhancing your body shape. My friends and I wear Shapewear to flatten the tummy, shape the thighs, reduce the size of the bottom, lift the breasts, help support the back by increasing posture... the cherry on top is it honestly just makes you feel like a princess no matter what your problem areas are.
So, for me, it's my belly! My belly just kind of has a mind and life of its own- so it pretty much does whatever it wants.
My best friend, Lizelle- she has a thigh issue so her shapewear buys are all centered around Thigh shapers. Her belly is flat like a baking tray! So anyway, I'l just pretty much take you down the shapewear road and we can "explore" that.

First things first

Ok, so I just need to get something out of the way from Day#1. And that is, this weird habit of mine of talking about myself in the 3rd person. My hubby totally hates it, LoL! but in my defense; its all my grandma's fault. Her thing was "I hope Leila-bug is coming over for the school holidays to cook with grandma?" ...I swear, the woman would never say "I, me" etc. So it rubbed off on me (mildly).

Now! onto the interesting part. This shapewear blog *super excited*
I'm starting at the beginning with this thing. I have to start there because I honestly had a "what the heck is shapewear?" look the day my colleague told me about it. So I'll take it from there!

 

My journey...

So! I'm blogging... Finally.
Was not sure what i would blog about specifically because I absolutely love all things #fashion #stylish #glamorous #girly and above all #practical.
And then 3 months ago (my wedding) my journey with shapewear began and Leila has not looked back ever since *chuckles*
Allow me to take you down this road. It would be such a pleasure!
