As a bigger gal I know how important shapewear can be. I also know how much I hate wearing it. I’ve never had a really good experience with any. I mean there was once when my cousin and I had to help one another in the bathroom during a funeral because getting things back into place was easy. All I ever wanted was a piece of shapewear that goes on easily and wears well. Special Intimates must have heard my prayers because they came through in a big way.
Special Intimates believe that women deserve both comfort & confidence. That is why they use premium fabrics, simple silhouettes and perfect fit. They could not have done more to make their products any better in my opinion.
Shaping Lace Tank
The Shaping Lace Tank is perfect for me because I have muffin top. Okay, it’s more like whale blubber than muffin tops but this tank helps take care of that problem. I really like the lace because I can wear it under a jacket and still be stylish. the lace doesn’t show through most of my tops either. I mean I have a couple that are thin and light colored which means you can see the tank under them.
Soft Modal Tank
The Soft Modal Tank is perfect for under tees. I can’t wait for summer to try out the high moisture wicking that is promised. It does shape not as much as the lace tank though in my opinion. It’s much looser than the lace tank. That is why this is a great laying piece with some control and shape.
Shaping Brief
Lets face it you aren’t a true Southern woman until you have been taught the importance of the shaping brief. Of course my mother calls them girdles and the ones she wears frightens me to no end. The Shaping Brief from Special Intimates is not only pretty but very easy to wear. It pulls on with no issues and wears well under clothing
The smooth side panels do most of the work for you while also making sure that your dress or other clothing doesn’t show that you are wearing these babies underneath.
Special Intimates is Make sure that you stay tuned to my Instagram because in the next few days I will be sharing outfits with the tanks and the briefs. I will make sure to share before and after pics so you can see how the outfit looks without the shaping clothing and then after.
