Have you ever had one of “those days”, where no matter what you put on, your undergarments are not helping your situation? Perhaps you are showing a roll or two you wish you weren’t, a panty line, etc?  Not that I personally ever have days like that!  (cough, cough)

OK, so I do.  Recently, in fact, and then I remembered- I have some beautiful undergarments from Naomi & Nicole Intimates that help “smooth things out” so to speak.  😉 
Have you ever visited http://www.cupidintimates.com?  If not- I suggest that you check it out.  With over 80 years of making women’s clothing, they know what they are doing.  Lovely, functional, and also PRACTICAL- you can wash most things in the washing machine, with only very few exceptions.

There are a variety of colors and styles to choose from, so no matter what outfit you are trying to “match” or what body part you want to smooth out or shape- Naomi & Nicole will have that perfect piece.  Or pieces! 
So- ok, yes, you can read all about them on their site- but how do they hold up???
Nicely!  I am happy to say that both of my “intimate wear” garments survived the flood.  Why?  Because they were with me in Ohio, and as you know I rushed home when I heard the storm was coming, making it back just hours before it hit.

They are soft and not constricting, which I so hate and will not continue to wear things I am not comfortable in. Fashion, shmash-ion.  If it hurts, I’m not wearing it!  LOL.  They also have a fabulous guarantee– only made by those that are sure about and can stand by their product, true?

Nope- not me, hehehe.  None of you want to see that one!  Website images to the rescue of my dear readers, who would love to keep their eyesight!  🙂 
While I didn’t do yoga in these Microfiber Highcut panties, I do have to say they didn’t “show” through my skirt or shorts, and that they are indeed comfortable and didn’t ride up.  Here is some product information for you-

“This waistline panty will stay in place all day long, even while exercising. It’s so lightweight you’ll forget you’re wearing it. Our breathable Wonderful Edge® silicone finish, placed at the legs, prevents wedgies and eliminates VPLs. This revolutionary panty won’t ride up and will remain invisible under your clothes.”

I liked them so much, that I am going to try out a few new pairs from the site.  I have to get new underwear (Thanks, Irene!) anyway, so I thought I would get a few nice ones from Naomi & Nicole since I know I like them, and try a few other styles out. 

Nice, yes?  No matter what size your chest is, you can fit into this shaper.  Best part?  It shapes your thighs, too!  Yippeee!!!!
I love that it’s soft, and shapes and smooths instead of strapping you in and keeping you from sitting and inhaling, UGH.  With a chest my size, it can make shopping for undergarments (and everything else!) difficult, so I really appreciate this open chested idea.
Here is the product description-

“This single-ply, lightweight garment is made of high-modulus Tactel® fabric designed to provide a smooth look for all-day wear. Wonderful Edge® at the leg holds the garment in place. Wear it with your own bra for a custom fit. Choose it for tummy control, waist shaping, and thigh control.”

Again- there is a reason that these were with me!  I wanted to look nice in my dresses when I was meeting people, and not only did I look nice- but I felt confidant, and that’s really half the battle anyway. 

One of you will win one panty and one shapewear item 🙂

I think that I, like most women, take immense pleasure in handbags. I don’t know what it is about a really great purse that just “does” it for me (and so many others!) but, doesn’t a great bag just thrill you?
Miche Bags are unlike any other. They are a basic bag with interchangeable shells, that you can customize for any outfit. The shoes and the purse really “make” or break the outfit, so a fab handbag is a MUST when you are dressing to impress, heading out to an interview, or just want to look great.

It’s fun and easy to customize your bag, and choose the shells (the part that shows) that you like best. You choose what size bag you want, then pick the shells you like best. And even better? If you get new shoes (WHEN you get new shoes!) you can pick up a few new shells to match! Going to a wedding, and want to match that bridesmaid dress, or cocktail attire? No prob! Switch the shell, easy peasy.

Here is how it works-

Please excuse the mess- I made this video the day before I left for Ohio- Pre-Hurricane, LOL.  I let my husband make the video, and he didn’t even try to keep the mess out, Le Sigh.  You know how packing is. 

You can buy your bags HERE, and you can enter to win one standard bag and shell below. Here is how to enter!
