I haven't tried spanx yet. Kinda thinkin I want those for after I deliver ;)
I have used the thigh highs before, but not in a while. Something makes me feel all insecure with having the undies part missing while im trying to dress up. Does that make sense? Like I dont feel like i have smooth lines underneath.
Oh btw this is a theme-charity benefit thing and they are doing 'Gatsby' this year....so im already gonna feel like a flapper-cow! Lol
Have you thought about thigh highs? Legg's has some awesome ones.
I have used the spanx brand. They are good!
