I have been enjoying over the knee socks paired with patterned stockings this winter. I say stockings, but truly they are pantyhose *gasp* -I know real sexy right?! Some of us need the 'control'. I have thought of switching to a girdle but want to try them on before purchasing. I have the feeling wearing them for their actual purpose, as opposed to back when I wore them for the sexy factor, changes how I want them to fit. What about you? Do you wear a girdle? Which one and how did you find sizing? I am especially interested in hip to waist ratio because my hips (large) and waist (not so large) do not adapt to standard sizes.
I find they are sized for about a 10" difference. I wear a size smaller to make up to my not-so-small waist. I don't wear them daily though and haven't worn the shorts type, just open bottom. Not terribly helpful I am!
ReplyDeleteI don't wear spanx I don't think they have enough strength to suck it in. I also have a tiny waist and larger hips. I go to Sears and get them, they have the old fashioned kind with built in garter belt clips if you want that, and the selections are usually under 20 dollars. Yes, do try it on.
ReplyDeleteFirst off, pantyhose rule.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I love my girdle! It really sucks everything right into place, and keeps you from eating too much. I believe I also got mine at Sears. It has eyehooks and a zipper on the side. It's a little time consuming when using the restroom, but man, does it give me a knockout figure!
I also don't think Spanx are controlling enough, fit is hard I'm actually really short which puts everything out of place so to speak, trial and error I'm afraid try some out in store.
ReplyDeleteI am often wearing the Vargas Longline Girdle from kissmedeadly. I also do have larger hips and a smaller waist (37" hips, 26" waist). It works for me and is very comfortable AND sexy
