BareNecessities.com, Shapers, and Me

After not 100% pleased with my overall smoothness once seeing this dress in a recent post, I decided to submit it for a shapewear makeover, or rather, “make-under” for the exclusive shapewear event with BareNecessities.com Style Director Jenny Altman.

Consisting of a fabulous makeup application by senior artist Keri Blair of Mac Cosmetics and a fitting with several shapewear options, I donned the Yummie Tummie Strapless Slip with Lace Hem, $86, underneath my asymmetrical black dress. I never would have thought of it, but this option is actually quite versatile, eliminating having to wear a strapless bra and worry about any type of shapewear/pantyhose combination. Plus, since it is in nude, it can definitely be worn under other items in my wardrobe that may be a bit transparent. Gaining some styling tips and advice from Jenny was a highlight of the evening, since shapewear is far from my forte, although an integral part of most women’s everyday routine.

It’s on for Valentine’s Day!

by fashionpulse

What to get, what to give? Yeah, it can be complicated — here are our tops picks, from the semi-obvious tot he obscure, but perfect for the occasion! Even if you don’t have a Valentine as of yet, we think all of these items also make ‘I deserve it’ gifts for yourself.

Here’s some tips:

4EA15GMCRY-M Mimi by Sorrelli Earrings, $35.20

We’re kind of obsessed with the new little sister line Mimi by Sorrelli, and thought these earrings were the perfect foil to traditional diamond earrings; they are incredibly chic and the price point is just right!

The Lacie, from Victoria’s Secret, 3 for $30

An amazing deal right now, get The Lacie brief, thong, or hiphugger at this price (usually $30); if you like Hanky Panky, you’ll LOVE The Lacie!

Nautica Windowpane Velour Robe from BareNecessities.com,$20.99 (was $85)

Yet another unbelievable price; I think that most guys could use a robe (instead of walking around in their underwear).

Hunter Boots: Original Lace Short Boot, $125

We’re digging this silhouette for Hunter, and the color is definitely perfect to make it a V-Day Gift!

The Natural, Satin Nipple Covers or Sexy Plunge Bra

So you’ve got a hot date; why not wear something that’s been living in your closet for quite some time, silently begging you to ‘take the plunge’?

Oral B Pulsonic Toothbrush, $59.99 (was $75)

Seems random, but take care of you and your loved one’s hygiene for V-Day! This brush features a 2-minute timer setting, two modes to clean, and a precision tip brush. By an extra brush head for your significant other and share!

Sandalwood Fig Collection, Bath & Body Works, $9.50-$19.50

The latest fragrance (we are in love with this scent, by the way), that in our opinion, is completely unisex! Indulge in a candle, massage oil, or the body wash & foam bath.
