It doesn't matter if you're going to work or to a wedding, when an outfit doesn't fit right or shows off all of your troubled areas, it's never a good feeling. Instead of making an appointment to see a plastic surgeon, trim that tummy and lift your butt with a pair of shapewear briefs. These miraculous undergarments target the stomach, butt, and thighs, giving you the appearance of having shed a few pounds.
Make It Brief
Back in the old days (a few centuries ago) and even a few decades ago, shapewear briefs were known as girdles. These undergarments, which originally resembled corsets, were often high-waisted and made from smooth, yet constricting material. However, these girdles weren't exactly discreet and appealed more to older women. Thankfully, the girdle was slimmed down and is now found in almost every woman's undergarment drawer. Shapewear briefs are usually made with Lycra and nylon, but polyester and cotton are also other options. Best of all, it doesn't matter what you're wearing since these briefs can be worn under any piece of clothing. Here are a few popular shapewear briefs that will have you looking great all year round.
* '''Spanx''': This brand of shapewear is without a doubt the most popular manufacturer of shapewear briefs. Their Slim Cognito shaping brief offers women a comfortable and seamless fit. Its high waist compresses and contours the stomach area, and it even includes removable straps in case you want to attach it to your bra. Another shaping brief is the Spanx 'Undielayer band to flatten the stomach.
* '''Dr. Rey''': The E! channel's Beverly Hills plastic surgeon launched his line of shapewear which includes the Everyday control brief. This undergarment contours the hips and lower stomach while lifting the butt. It's also incredibly affordable.
* '''Hanes''': Although Hanes is known for its undershirts and underwear they also make shapewear. The Hanes All-Over Shaping Moderate Control brief smooths and provides optimum coverage. The leg opening extends a little lower than normal briefs.
* '''Bali''': With 360 degrees of stretch, Bali's Seamless Firm Control Briefs targets the torso and provides complete coverage of your rear end.
* '''Barely There''': If you find that most shaping briefs are too constricting, Barely There's Breathe brief is designed with a breathable and cooling fabric. It's also seamless, firming, and tummy smoothing.
