Hello ladies
I realise this subject has probably been done to death, but maybe just one more time?
I'm going to a wedding in a couple of weeks time. It will mainly be populated by young, slim glamorous types. I am none of those things, but have a lovely slinky midnight blue jersey maxi dress for the occasion. The sort of dress that would look sexy as owt over a waspish waist and Joan Holloway arse, but like shit over my back boobs and porridgey buttocks.
So... I need some magic undies. Probably the sort that go from boob to mid-thigh. Are Spanx worth the money? What about John Lewis or M&S versions? Or, even, Uniqlo?
Which ones, in all you wise ladies' opinions, ride up or down? Which will not constrict my breathing and displace my internal organs? Allow sufficient freedom of movement to chase after my toddler all day, yet minimise bum wobble?
And, what's more, if I buy them online should I buy the size I am (14 on the arse) or the size I want to be once they're on?
