Hey Awesome ones, as we age our bodies change and many of us, myself included, get a bit more curvier and find we need to re-think our undergarments. In this video I discuss shapewear and smoothing undergarments to help us hide our tummys, belly and muffin tops. If you want to look slimmer and thinner this how to video will help you smooth things out a bit and give you some more confidence with your outfits and wearing dresses and other clothes in your wardrobe.I talk about fittings of bras, undergarments, high rise pants, tights and camisoles and hope it helps you with your curviness too.- Heather (*scroll down this page to find similar items that I mention in this video)

Hi Heather!
Thank you so much for providing the wonderful videos. I am 62 years old and struggle with style and make up as a “mature” woman. I enjoy your sense of style, especially with the jeans and sweaters. I wish we could be friends!
Thanks again and I look forward to seeing more of your awesome videos.
Best,
Laura
Thanks so much for your lovely comment. I guess through the internet we are kind of virtual friends! So glad to have you part of this community Laura!
Hi Heather, greetings from Australia.
My problem is a little bit different. I am not over weight, except for my tummy. I would pass for a woman in the very last stages of pregnancy.
My doctor doesn’t seem to be concerned. So seems I just have to live with it.
Any shape wear I have tried makes no different. I have never tried “spanx
But don’t really know what size to get. I take a size 14 top and then have to get a size 16 for the bottom half. Do I get a size 14 or a size 16.
I am 68 years old. I certainly don’t expect to have a figure like my 18 year old self. Thanks Margaret
Hi Margaret,
I have a larger tummy too and if I eat certain foods or a lot of water, I get bloated.
I think you need to go into a store when they open in your area and you feel it is safe. Since shapewear is so personal you need to try them on. I would suggest an all- in -one shapewear with straps that has built in briefs. I have one with a space for my bra to peek through. If you get just the briefs it will ride down and you will look even bigger. Get the more expensive brands like Spanx, the material breathes more and lasts longer.
Remember that you don’t need to wear these everyday.
Take care and I hope this helps,
Heather
Heather,
I’d like to add, if you can buy an all-in-one shapewear with press buttons or hooks at the crotch, it’s better than the other kind that you have to remove your dress or jumpsuit when going to the washroom.
True… thanks for the input Denise
