All About Spanx

[beach]

mga sis, anong spanx or assets ang okay for bagong panganak na moms?ok ba to in replacing abdominal binders? para papabli na ako sa states

from what i read sa online magazines, gwyneth paltrow wore double spanx after she gave birth to Apple, her first child. i

[brattinella]

@beach agree... diyan mura ang spanx... less than 3k...

[cindylulu]

^^spanx layered with another spanx?? ang tindi nakakahinga pa sya ha.

[brattinella]

^ang hirap huminga nun 

[clueless]

gusto ko ng bod-a-bing. at ng leggings. ang mahal. 

the assets tankini i got from the sale was only a top pala. dufus. walang bottom. paano ko gagamitin. i have yet to find a bottom for it. buti black so madaling hanapan ng terno kahit dito na lang.

[cindylulu]

at rustan's naman the draped tankini costs 7k. i love the color - a hot pink. i would love to have a halter swim dress pero wala pa silang ganun.

Sisses recommended ba Spanx sa mga bagong panganak? may binder ba sila?

[cindylulu]

^they have no binders sis but there are tummy-taming body shapers na pwede na rin sigurong maging binder. as one sis here said, even gwyneth paltrow used it after giving birth.

Hi sissies! Just want to know how much (or just a price range) rustan's sell Slim Cognito® Shaping Bodysuit if they do have it. And is it worth the price? Does it really hide the bilbils? Sorry for the questions, need it for an event that I have to attend to. TIA

Yung Slim Cognito Shaping Bodysuit nila (yung panty sa baba) is a little less than 5K. The mid-thigh one is 5250. Hope this helps.

^ grabe, super mahal na talaga!

i made the mistake of buying higher power and a slim cognito cami sa rustans i think 2-3 years ago. super nanghinayang ako kasi ang laki ng mark-up kaya now i buy direct from spanx.com. plus may assets pa doon.

[beach]

Kamusta ang Assets? Is it same quality as Spanx? haven't tried eh... m so satisfied kasi with Spanx.

[clueless]

^ i have the following from assets:
- Fantastic Firmers Open-Bust Cami
- Fantastic Firmers Cami
- Cami Bra
- Mid-Thigh Shaper
- Brilliant Bra
- Push-Up Tankini

and i have the following from spanx:
- Bra-llelujah! Underwire Contour Front-Closure Bra
- Slim Cognito Seamless Tank
- Higher Power

to compare:

brilliant bra vs bra-llelujah: i like the former better kasi parang mas nakakalaki ng boobs.  but i love both equally because of no back fat.

assets camis vs spanx slim cognito: the latter has more slimming power so medyo mas effort for me na isuot siya. i feel more relaxed/comfy with the former but in terms of slimming power, better talaga si slim cognito.

in terms of quality of material, parang pareho lang. or mas malambot siguro ng konti yung spanx vs assets especially comparing the spanx high power vs the assets mid thigh shaper.

and considering that assets is (more than) half the price of spanx, it is a very good alternative. pero pag nag-sale ulit sa spanx.com, i will probably try their panties. and the bod-a-bing and leggings nga din sana.

[mama squeak!]

^I have their bod-a-bing top, pant and crop pant. I usually wear them when I travel. It's wrinkle resistant kasi. Super comfy pa yung material.

[clueless]

^ they look comfy nga. namamahalan lang ako. plus i'm not sure of the fit. i havent checked yet if they have it at rustans so i can try them on muna for size. hehe.

i will wait for the next sale or when there's a coupon for spanx.com before i buy. haha.

thanks for the feedback.

[mama squeak!]

^I haven't seen them yet locally. I usually buy during their sale period din. The bod-a-bings I got during their black Friday sale pero usually $20 off lang kasi popular items.

[clueless]

^ i usually buy lang din pag sale or basta may discount. like if it's your birth month, you get a 10% off coupon. my friend naman was able to find an online coupon for i think 20% off or so.

my bra-lellujah i got for 50% off last thanksgiving sale lang.

sayang din kasi if i get the wrong size. kaya hindi pa ako bumibili until now because 1-mahal, 2-not sure of size. haha.

[klengmorales]

Ang mahal pala nito. nalula ako sa presyo. ipon mode muna. pantago ng bilbil

[sportscaster]

Thanks so much sis beach and clueless! Maybe its worth investing in one coz I can use it again. Its a bit steep but if it will slenderize and give me a nice form then go! hehe! Getting in shape is really hard, thank you spanx for making life a little bit easier. 

I'll look into buying online, hope they'll have my size. 

[cindylulu]

@clueless, no bod-a-bing at rustan's sis.

i have the assets chic peek sweetheart cami and i have the spanx hide and seek cami. except for the slimming level, i don't find any difference at all. well, i have two assets lang kasi, the sweetheart cami in nude and in black.   

[beach]

my personal favorite is my spanx slimplicity high-waist panty... sobrang comfy without sacrificing the compression sa tummy ko. i haven't tried assets pero kasi, m so satisfied na talaga with spanx... i will try next their undie-tectable line.
