I just want to alert anyone who wants to streamline the midriff and waist (hips too) a bit that I just discovered Target's Merona Fit Solutions Slimming Style clothing with "built in slimming under layer" and love it. I saw a couple of dresses, a knee length skirt and a couple of tops. The fabric is poly and spandex knit with a nylon and spandex lining. It's black or a black and white print. The skirt has something like biker shorts under it. I sized up one size and got the skirt and a sleeveless shell that will make good travel pieces paired with Sweet Pea tops or to look like a LBD together on their own. At $17.99 for the skirt and $16.99 for the shell it's very affordable. I feel so slim with all the jiggly bits held in snuggly but not too tight. I also liked one of the dresses and the print top but probably need more bust to really look good in these pieces. They will be great for most women.
I'm wearing skirt and shell under a cardi today and so far the spandex layer is staying put. I hope they will come out with more colors. The down side is that the spandex under layer may be just too warm for hot weather.
