I have a Trinny and Susannah body suit thing and it is amazing!
I got it from Amazon for £40 which was slightly cheaper than department stores, but I have recently seen them in TK Maxx for about £10!

Hello,

I have some Marks & Spencer's magic shorts (at least that's what I think they're called)

if you imagine a pair of tights, but cut off the legs midthigh, and you're just left with a very reinforced top bit that's what they're like.

I found them fantastic, and they cost about five pounds. I'm a size 16 with an hourglass figure and I fit their large size. (Sizing I believe goes from small to XXL)

good luck

Katy

I've just bought a Spanx half-slip. It's great basically! It looks quite inoffensive as shapewear goes. Quite expensive at £40 including a Figleaves 20% discount, but hoping it'll get lots of wear.

I have the spanx shorts that come right up to your chest and attach to your bra. Expensive but great investment, nothing moves!

I have the Spanx that come to mid thigh and up to the bra. There are I think two versions, the slightly more heavy duty ones attach to your bra.... and are brilliant as they don't roll down and they are pretty smooth on the thigh.
