Do The White Thing

Joe's Jeans, Available at Bloomingdale's

Fitted or flared, cuffed or cropped, white jeans are white hot this summer. But sometimes this white look can go terribly wrong. Neutral numbers offer little camouflage when it comes to figure flaws and body-hugging denim is VPL’s BFF.

Fortunately, Spanx offers a jean-ius solution! Show off your ivory power by pairing your best pair with the Skinny Britches® Capri. The new, lengthier addition to this Spanx fan favorite collection offers sheer shaping power from non-binding waistband to laser-cut leg edges!

And while it may be our coolest shaping pant ever, don’t call it a lightweight. The Skinny Britches Capri keeps your cheeks and thighs dimple-free. Now that’s something to smile about.

Spanx Has Girls Saying Bra-Vo!

Get your girls ready for a standing ovation. Bra-vo!, the latest bra from Spanx is engineered to fit flawlessly. From its hidden strap adjustment to discreet hook-and-eye front closure, this back-smoothing, side-slimming bra-blem solver is ultra-innovative.

Three cheers for Bra-vo!

And while SPANX fans love the everyday comfort and ease of Bra-llelujah!, sometimes a gal just wants to bring **** back. Thanks to Bra-vo!’s chic (and smoothing) lightweight power mesh, showing a little strap is no longer a sartorial sin.

Rock a low-back frock (like this Trina Turk dress) and let the mesh make an appearance. The peak-a-boo effect is a quick way to give your look an edge, while staying back-bulge free.

We're bringing **** back...

Adele Rocks 4 Pairs at a Time

Life & Style's Coverage of the Story

Grammy Award-winning singer Adele has been a Spanx fan for years, wearing our Tight-End Tights for many of her appearances and performances. But she shared a little more about her commitment to Spanx during a segment from an upcoming interview with Matt Lauer. The British songstress told Matt that she wore four pairs of SPANX under her dress at the 2012 Grammy Awards. We’ve heard about celebs wearing two or three pairs, but four pairs makes Adele an official Spanx Super Fan! Talk about “Rolling in the Deep”!

The “Rumor Has It” singer did tell Matt she only kept two pairs on during her performance, and the duo joked that two pairs of Spanx is the max when singing.

It’s been exciting to watch the buzz around this story build, as its been picked up by publications and websites around the world, including Life & Style Magazine,which featured a quote from Sara. You can watch the clip here and stay tuned for the full, hour-long special set to air June 5 on NBC.

Sara Blakely Gives Women a Leg Up

The Leg Up™ program is Sara’s way of offering up-and-coming business women a big break they deserve. Inspired by the opportunity she received when Oprah named Spanx a “Favorite Thing,” Sara sees Leg Up as her own way to support women’s entrepreneurial endeavors and introduce them to our catalog and web readers.

This round, Sara chose two companies that combine style and function—just like Spanx!

The first is Moonrise Jewelry. Founded by Meredith Restein in 2002, this line of handcrafted jewelry allowed Restein to turn her jewelry-making hobby into a sustainable enterprise that empowers women in rural communities like her own.

The second Leg Up recipient is Roseanne Horn, founder of Tiligroup, LLC. (Tili is an acronym for Take It or Leave It). Roseanne was always keeping her makeup, keys, sunscreen, dog treats, etc. in clear zip-locked bags that left everything in full view. She knew there had to be a more attractive solution, and thus the Tili Bag was born. These re-usable zip-and-seal bags are as colorful and fashionable as they are functional!

Congrats to our new Leg Up entrepreneurs!
