I had a dress emergency yesterday, and that 'necessity' made me 'invent' something useful and wonderful.
I needed something to smooth out my tummy and thighs. So, here it is, 4 hours before I have to leave for a funeral, July, hot and I had too many kids to run out and get a satiny thing to help me. So, I took an old pair of pantyhose and chopped them off at the knee. This gave me smoothness from the waist to the knee (read as 'no chub-rub), and wasn't too hot. Plus it was a lot cheaper than a Spanx and I didn't have to go anywhere to get it.
Don't toss holey pantyhose - you never know when you are going to need them.
I was always curious if doing something like that would make the pantyhose roll up at all. My pantyhose tend to roll down at the waist, and it's kind of annoying.
ReplyDeletethey did eventually start rolling up, but I did manage to make it through my event ;)
