Who’s been wearing Spanx Now?

Slimplicity-lingerie-slipEveryone, apparently!  At the weekend the BAFTAs took place, with some of our favourite leading ladies including Olivia Coleman and Sheridan Smith winning prizes.  As is the case with almost any major celeb event, Spanx UK was hard at work, providing some of our best loved and glamorous stars with shaping support (including the boys!)

As well as gracing the curves of Sheridan and Olivia, red carpet regulars Holly Willoughby and Tess Daly were relying on the shapewear – and both women mentioned Spanx in their red carpet interview, too. They were joined by a whole host of other famous faces including red carpet presenter Jenni Falconer and Queen-of-the-Olympics Claire Balding.  And the ladies weren’t alone – star of the BBC’s Great British Bake Off Paul Hollywood and Chatty Man Alan Car were two of the guys also wearing Spanx for Men.  We call that a victory for gender equality !

Away from the BAFTAs, Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden opened up about how much she loves Spanx in an interview with the Daily Mail, saying last week: ‘‘I don’t care that my tummy is hanging over my trousers. I know I can always put a pair of Spanx on. It is a healthy paunch.”  A woman after our own hearts…

Shout it from the rooftops: We Love Spanx!

mama-spanx-nudeWe used to think that shapewear had to remain a shameful secret that we’d take to the grave.  Frankly, we thought we’d rather do pretty much anything than own up to the fact that we were getting a little helping hand from Spanx UKbut it seems we were wrong.  Nowadays, any VIP or FOP (Fairly Ordinary Person) is queuing up to lavish praise on Spanx shapwear… and who are we to turn our noses up at such a trend?

Mum-to-be Kim Kardashian was snapped this week wearing a camel coloured leather dress (a brave choice on any day of the week, let alone when you’re also juggling a baby bump)… with trusty shapewear shorts peeking out from underneath.  The Kardashian sister has declared her love for the brand in the past, calling them her “best friend”, and it seems she’s not about to give them up any time soon.  Luckily Spanx has a range of lines to suit every need, including maternity Spanx (of which Rochelle from the Saturdays has already admitted to being a fan)… so now you know just how she’s keeping that svelte pregnancy figure!

Kim loves her leggings, so we’d be surprised if she hasn’t also tried Spanx leggings.  I can personally vouch for these – I love them.  They pull you in, flatten your stomach, tone your legs… pretty much everything you could ask for and more.  The control around the middle even makes me sit and stand better, so you get better posture into the bargain!  Plus you wear them just like normal leggings, so there’s no need to hide them away, and no possibility of your secret getting out.

Who’s Flashing Us Now?!

We love it when our beloved Hollywood starlets reveal a little too much (no, not like that!), and show us that they too need a little helping hand to look that gorgeous. We’re talking of course, about Spanx. Like a breath of fresh air, we can’t get enough of those accidental glimpses of shapewear, reminding that whilst they may earn more than we can count, they’re just like us.

The last few days brought with them several Spanx sightings, and some from those who you would never even guess! The beauty of shape wear is that essentially, it remains your special secret. Good fitting shape wear will nip & tuck you in all the right places, transforming outfits and adding a rather large dose of confidence in the process. With a pair for every shape imaginable, it’s hardly surprising that celebs all over rely on them to keep any lumps & bumps in check.

Katy Perry ‘almost always wears hers’, Gwyneth Paltrow has a drawer full of them…but who’s been wearing theirs now?

It’s no secret that Kim Kardashian loves her Spanx, even naming them her ‘best friend’ in one interview. But it seems that sisters still share, no matter her famous they are, as Khloe has been spotted flashing her shapewear at the weekend. Notorious for her on-point and super chic style, the youngest member of the Kardashian clan showed off a striking monochrome dress & gorgeous figure – complete with a pair of the Spanx In Power Line Super Power Panties. Never one to be embarrassed, Khloe hardly looked phased by the accidental reveal, which makes us love her that little bit more. A fan of the Kardashian style? Layer your favourite hosiery over your shapewear to streamline in secret.

And from a sister of an expectant mummy to a pop star ready to, well, pop, Rochelle Humes from super girl group, The Saturdays, has recently expressed her appreciation for maternity Spanx. Mama Spanx have been specially designed with you & your bump in mind, lending support to those sore backs and working to gently shape bottoms. What’s more, as Rochelle puts it, they ‘make you feel so comfortable’.  You’ll find that thanks to some very clever expandable fabric, your shape wear will grow as you do, making any Mama Spanx the perfect investment. Love being a mum-to-be but miss your favourite sheer tights? Get your hands on a pair of the Mama Spanx Maternity Tights and wear under your favourite shift dresses.

And for the man in your life? It’s been reported that Brad Pitt is no stranger to the shapewear, as he relies on his for a little extra help when it comes to maintaining those dashing good looks and physique. Working to show off all the good bits whilst transforming the not so good parts, why not get him the Spanx for Men Zoned Performance Tank? Subtle enough to pop under a work shirt or tee, the breatheasy fabric slims & trims instantly, but most importantly, in top secret. And as if Brad Pitt’s body wasn’t incentive enough, we’ve learnt that funny man & TV personality Jonathan Ross adores his Spanx too – if it’s good enough for

Brad, its good enough for everyone!

Spanx: Shapewear of the Gods, Whatever Your Shape

Tulisa might have been flashing her Spanx at the National Television Awards this week, but there’s no shame in showing off your control shapewear any more – she’s in good company, as shapewear’s legions of fans will demonstrate.  Spanx shapewear has no end of celebrity devotees, testament to its wide range of styles and control levels and shaping features for any problem area.  So find out which Spanx is for you based on your celebrity body…

 

Celebrity Body Double: Kristen Stewart

Kristen has a boyish shape, so if you’re like her you probably want to go for something that adds curves.  Open bust bodysuits will give you control but allow you to wear your own bra – or else try the Spanx Slimplicity Booty Booster Shorts, which have removable bum pads to give you a booty like Beyoncé’s.

 

Celebrity Body Double: Kim Kardashian

Kim has previously declared than

“Spanx are my best friend”, so it’s fair to assume that she’s a fan.  If you’ve got an hourglass figure like Kim, chances are you won’t need a bum booster product like Kristen.  Go for something that slims the hips like a strong control short – we love the Spanx In Power Line Super Higher Power, which is a bestseller with our customers, too.   And we’re sure the devotion won’t stop now she’s pregnant – she can just switch to Mama Spanx!

 

Celebrity Body Double: Adele

Apple shapes like Adele will want something that gives them that sought after hourglass figure.  Get something that adds shape by cinching in the waist, but make sure you use the Spanx size chart to avoid unsightly bulges in all the wrong places.  Adele has admitted to sometimes wearing two pairs of Spanx under red carpet looks – but there’s no need to go quite that far as you can get great extra strong support from Spanx ranges like the

Slim Cognito.

 

Celebrity Body Double: Brian Dowling

Spanx for women has been around for ever, and in the name of equality it’s only fair that we share the sculpting power of shapewear with the opposite sex.  Celebrity Big Brother host Brian Dowling has confessed to a love of the range, saying: “My stylist gets me the male Spanx,  It makes me lose a good inch and a half and puts my nipples up around my chin.  It’s amazing.”  Straight from the horse’s mouth – Spanx for men is the way forward, guys.

 

So whatever your shape, there’s a shapewear to fit, smooth and shape your body… just follow your celeb body double for the figure of your dreams!

Tights, Charity & Pandemonium at MyTights.com

MyTights.com held our very own sample sale earlier this week, where we sold off vast numbers of sample hosiery and shapewear to raise money for the Renal Unit at

Royal Berks Hospital – a worthy cause, as I’m sure you’ll all agree.

We set ourselves up in the foyer of Hearst magazines (publishers of magazines including Company, Cosmopolitan and Elle) who were kind enough to host us and before long we were being mobbed – hardly surprising when tights were priced at just £1 and shapewear at just £5!

Spanx’s Latest Celebrity Fan…

Another week, another celeb fan coming out of the shapewear closet. This week it was the turn of the Tulisa Constavlos, aka the feistiest lady in pop and X Factor judge, who lost her last act – 16 year old Ella Henderson – at the weekend to general outcry. The ex-N-Dubz-turned-solo-star has confessed that – gasp – she’d rather just buy cialis online uk slip on a pair of Spanx than diet, according to Heat Magazine.

Finally! A celeb that actually admits to liking food and even more, eating it! We thought it was generally accepted that celebrities live on a complex diet of vitamin water, unicorn-purified air and the occasional sniff of a McDonald’s bag (yes, we’re looking at you, Miley Cyrus), but now we know the truth. Goodbye, Gym! Farewell, Low Fat snacks! From now on, we’ll be doing a Tulisa and relying on shapewear to keep us svelte over the party season.

Spanx’s In Power Line Super Higher Power shaping shorts made it onto Heat’s top three shapers. The high waisted shaping shorts come in black or nude and has strong control for ultimate shaping power and a super-steamlined silhouette, which makes it one of our favourites, too! But if that’s not quite what you are after, not to worry. Whatever you’re wearing, there’s a Spanx to go with it, from shorts to briefs, bodysuits to slips, and camisoles to open bust shapers.

Ok, so maybe we won’t REALLY be able to ditch the gym and eat whatever we like (Spanx UK might be miracle workers but even miracles have their limits); but there’s no denying that being able to get a secret,

instant nip and tuck will mean we can tuck into our favourite Christmas treats, a little more relaxed that we’re still going to fit into our party frocks.

Jess Simpson Wears Double Spanx!

Jessica Simpson is the latest celebrity to confess to wearing Spanx, joining other famous fans including Adele and Kelly Osborne. Jess donned TWO pairs of the sculpting shapewear for her post-baby body reveal on US TV in her interview with Katie Couric.

Now we weren’t sure about layering two pairs – in our experience, one of their super control pieces is more than enough (plus, how would we breathe?!) But the new Skinny Britches collection at MyTights.com is their lightest ever shapewear with medium control that can be layered. The ultra fine pieces are finished with laser cut legs for utter subtlety, and are super comfortable, too. Four styles are available, including a thong that will banish VPL forevermore and the Skort, a skirt and shorts combined so you get a feminine look whilst your shapewear stays put.

This really is shapewear you’ll forget you’re wearing. But if you wanted something with a little more control, look no further than Spanx’ Slim Cognito range. Super strong control, seamless, with graduated compression so you get an hourglass figure even Beyoncé would be jealous of. And the best thing about the range (in my opinion, though I agree it’s hard to decide) is that there are 6 different styles, so whatever your outfit there’s a shape to suit. Slinky evening dress? The Shape Slip will smooth your silhouette and keep you feeling feminine. Teeny tiny shorts? The control panty has a high leg with shaping around the waist for a flat tum.

So whether you need a little light smoothing or want a body transformation à la Jess, get your Spanx on with the huge range of Spanx UK products at MyTights.com.

Surgery hits a bum note for Christina Aguilera

It has come to our attention this week that pop diva Christina Aguilera has been spotted with a dramatically differently shaped bottom to pictures taken a few months ago, sparking the questions: has she or hasn’t she? Mutya has, Nicki Minaj is rumoured to have, Kim Kardashian denies having and Towie’s Chloe Sims is planning on getting – we’re talking of course, about bum implants.

Since J-Lo showed us that bigger can be better when it comes to rears, a whole host of stars like Beyoncé have paved the way for curvier ladies to feel sexy with a little more junk in their trunk. But what if you’re naturally petite? Hence the sudden spate of surgery for certain slimline celebs.

Ladies, what on earth are you playing at? Not that we’re against surgery per se, and we agree that J-Lo’s rear is to be envied, but these girls have all got great figures already bum implants are generally a pretty permanent option. Thankfully, our saviour Spanx have cottoned onto the trend for curvier derrières and brought out shapewear designed to sculpt your bottom as well as your other problem areas.

Whilst traditional shapewear can flatten your behind, Spanx have got several options that will really help you to make the most of your curves, including the Spanx Undie-tectable High-Waisted Mid Thigh Shaper which whittles your waist while a looser knit around the derri-area (see what we did there?) provides a subtle lift and prevents flattening. Or for ladies who want a little extra padding, you need to try the Spanx Booty Booster Shorts, which come with removable bum pads so you can choose exactly what silhouette you want to go for on a daily basis.

Now, who’s going to give Christina the memo?
