I love to wear dresses and skirts. The only problem for me is that my legs chafe- and that’s not fun for anyone. I use plenty of shorts and stockings, but shorts can “cut you” in strange places and can leave not-so-pretty bulges, and it’s not always the right weather for stockings. I recently was able to try new Bandelettes, which look a bit like the garter you wore under your wedding dress.
“Bandelettes (www.Bandelettes.com) — the solution to keeping thighs from chafing; the lace Bandelettes fit all size thighs and stay in place…and can match nicely to your under garments.”
The way they work is like this- they have a no slide, plastic-y coating on the back so that you can get them to hold their place on your thigh where you put them. They stay in place (even when it’s hot) and keep your legs from uncomfortably rubbing together. You can get them in several colors and sizes to match every outfit and fit every size. One odd thing- you need to measure your thighs to get your correct size, which is both a bit pesty and also not exactly pleasant- No one likes to know EXACTLY how big their thighs are, LOL. I hope they find another way of figuring that out!
“Bandelettes resemble sexy high thigh tights without the added complications such as slipping. Frequent use of tights can also promote a humid and warm environment encouraging fungal and bacterial growth. The Bandelettes offer a welcome respite in that they are delicately crafted and cover only the area that needs to be protected. Rather than coming across as unsightly, they are aesthetic and decorative without revealing the true purpose that they actually serve.”
They are comfortable and easy to wear- I have had no issues with them so far. I’m sorry, I’m not taking a photo of me wearing them- that’s a little personal- but the photo above is me in a dress with them underneath, so you can see that they can’t be seen under clothing. Check out this video for more info, and the photos of models wearing the bands for a better idea of what they look like.
