The Bare Skinny

When finding the perfect outfit, dress, pants, shirt or anything else we want to wear that makes us look fabulous, it requires us to find the right undergarments also. Here are the best unmentionables to wear for the most challenging clothes.

The Plunge

When you look at Jennifer Lopez, Jamie Lynn Seigler and Joy Bryant in these pictures you know without a doubt that there is no way they are wearing a bra. So how is it that they are not falling out and spilling all over the place? Double-sided tape…

This clear tape, specifically for fashion, can be used to hold spaghetti straps in place, prevent plunging necklines from showing everything and keep those loose dresses close to the skin. It’s also gentle on the skin and will leave no residue on your fab fabrics!

For those of you that want to be daring and sexy with a plunging neckline this holiday season here are some tape options for you:

Backless

Ciara, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Christina Ricci all decided to go backless, yet sexy and elegant to recent gatherings. When you wear a backless dress, you know the conventional bra is out of the question. Going braless? Ummmmm….not a good idea especially if you’re larger than a A cup. A Backless Bra is best to achieve the desired effect.

To wear the dresses Nicole Kidman, Kelly Brook and Salma Hayek are wearing, you have to have on seamless underwear unless you decide to go commando which is in no ones best interest (Britney).

Worn by celebrities on and off the red carpet whether they are wearing skirts or jeans, Spanx are more than your grandmas girdle.
