Lingerie designer Jesus Fernandez sent us a sneak preview of a new lingerie label his company is going to be launching soon.
Looks pretty promising if you ask me!! 🙂

Shapeez Presents The Unbelievabra!
New shapewear brand Shapeez has just launched its one-of-a-kind combination bra and body slimmer. Say goodbye to visible bra lines, back fat, and even the dreaded “muffin top” with this unique, shaping and slimming product. What makes this bra so special? Breathable microfiber with wicking technology to keep the wearer dry and comforable. Underwire, molded foam cups. Adjustable straps. No back bands or closures.
The Unbelievabra is available in a cropped style, the Mini as well as the Ultimate, a full length style for those who want more tummy control. All styles come in nude or black and accomodate sizes A – E (making for 25 different sizes!). Retailing at $75 for the Mini and $85 for the Ultimate, this product is truly worth the investment! Because this amazing shapewear garment is brand new, it is only available online at the Shapeez website or the As We Change (a San Diego based e-retailer) site. However, it is projected to be in more stores this fall (with additional shapewear products including minimizers and demi bras). I’ll keep you posted as more stockists are added. In the meantime, if you purchase an Unbelievabra, please let us know about it in our forums.

Pure Style Girlfriends for Surgery-Free Solutions
Pure Style Girlfriends is a company whose is devoted to providing inexpensive and simple solutions as an alternative to medical procedures. Look and feel your best using these fashion faux pax solving products. Choose from double stick tape, adhesive strapless bras, bra inserts, breast lift tape and more!
I recently tried the Pure Style Girlfriends Pick-Me-Up Breast Lift-Up Tape. After trying numerous products like this before (with little success), I was interested to see how this brand would work for me. In the past, I had tried adhesive bra cups that taped from the bottom, which left a natural shape to still be desired. So I tried the kind that taped from the top. And still, I was not quite impressed with the shape or lift. So I was curious as to how Pure Style Girlfriends would be different. The first thing I noticed that was different was the Patent Pending tape. Rather than forming cups just below or just above the breast, the tape is designed to lift from underneath. I believe it is this vertical lift that sets this product a part from the rest. I was able to have both lift and shape. While the product is ideally suited for A-D cups, I was suprised at the success I experienced with the product. Additionally, I was impressed with the Pure Style website as it features a quick clip of how to use the tape.
So, check out Pure Style Girlfriends soon. Let us know what you think in our forums. To find a store near you, enter your zip code here, or purchase online at Bare Necessities.
Tackle Arm Flab with Slimpressions
The Curve NY show introduced me to a new product designed to tackle that pesky arm flab. Not only do the consumer tested Slimpressions tame arm flab, but also smooth out the the back and midriff. Available in three silhouettes (The Haves, The Have-Nots, and the Skinny Minis), you can meet your individual needs to “reconfigure your figure.”Both the Haves and the Have-Nots feature a ribbed midriff for all around support as well as gentle compression on the arms preventing that unsightly underarm flappage. Additionally, both of the body shapers feature a long torso ideal for tucking or layering. However, the Have-Nots scoops under the breasts for women who do not prefer the extra compression. The Skinny Minis provide the same upper body control as the Haves collection, but allows your arms to be free.
The machine washable (!) Slimpressions are available in Black, Brown, White, and Nude and in sizes 1, 2, and 3 which correspond with pant sizes. Why pant sizes? The torso of Slimpressions is long enough to cover your entire midriff so is sized to match that area of your body.
Want more information? The Slimpressions website is very thorough in detailing the specifics of the garments. While you are there, sign up for the preferred pre-sales customer list. In the meantime, we’ll keep you posted of the latest developments as we hear of them!
Lejaby Lingerie Fall/Winter 2008 Preview!
Straight from the catwalk of Paris’ Salon international de la lingerie last week — photos of two Lejaby Fall/Winter 2008-2009 pieces in anything but boring winter colors! 🙂 No Bert-bashing, but obviously there’s one professional photo and eight somewhat less professional ones, but I’m loving the fact that we get a chance to show you these pieces fresh from the catwalk…
Enjoy!
