New Obsession

I have a new obsession with high waisted briefs. They are absolutely amazing for an number of reasons.


1. They hold your tummy in if you're feeling bloated.
2. They give you a waist.
3. They cover your butt.
4. They're sexy.
5. They're sexy in the sense they are classic.

I have been buying vintage briefs and girdles on ebay (see stores vintagetreasuregirlboutique and purpledreamdesigner Treasure Emporium ) which are stunning because they are authentic and actually hold things.

I'm also obsessed with American Apparel's Nylon Spandex Stretch Floral Lace High-Waist Brief. They are affordable ($21.00 a pair!), and they come in colours that match bras I already own. Unfortunately, American Apparel is going through some financial problems and may end up closing down, so if you want these, get there FAST!

Another company that does great high waisted briefs is Bassoni Lingerie. They have a great high waisted brief that comes in black or nude and has control all through the belly and gives you a great waist. You can find Bassoni in many lingerie stores around Australia.


Glad to see the waist is coming back and muffin tops are disappearing slowly. Now, if only the leggings disappeared with the muffin tops, I'll be one happy camper. But I'll settle with high waisted leggings for now.
