Every single year, as we come hurtling towards the big day, we're forever promising ourselves that "this year it'll be different" and this year we won't end up eating those extra three mince pies, or that fourth glass of rosé. However, each and every year, we find ourselves back on the sofa on Boxing Day, surrounded by a fortress of half-eaten arctic roll and an empty bottle of sherry.
Christmas is a time for excess and, we've just got to admit it - prevention is never going to be the cure with this one. Instead, you can ensure that you still look tip top in that devilishly tight cocktail dress, with the help of shapewear.
Shapewear is the best friend to any body-conscious person - so essentially, to anyone and everyone over the age of twenty, during the Christmas period. It sucks you in comfortably, in all of the right places, and creates a flattering silhouette, regardless of your shape.
Wearing shapewear can be the difference between going out and hiding in the back of the crowd, or feeling fantastic and ending up with that kiss under the mistletoe. Take control of your situation this Christmas - even if you can't really take control of your mince pie consumption.
Here are our top picks for handy shapewear with this Pelham and Strutt Christmas review:
Men's Core Long Sleeved Shapewear:
Absolutely perfect for popping on under your dress shirt before you visit the family - looks smart, keeps you looking trim - take that, beer belly! Another bonus of wearing a core long sleeved piece in this current weather is that you'll keep cosy; even if you have to walk the kids around for carol singing! Available in black and white, you can match your shapewear to the shirt you've picked out for the day.
Women's Core Shaping Dress:
That office Christmas party that you've been anticipating for what seems like half of the year, is finally upon us - panic time! The recent winter chill has left a strange increase of fat around your tummy area, that definitely, definitely wasn't there last time you checked - but fortunately, shapewear can come to the rescue. This bodycon, strapless dress will work under practically any cocktail dress that you decide upon. Its nude tone will allow for ultimate versatility, ensuring that you are in no way held back with your outfit choices.
Women's Core Body Shaper:
If you are planning on visiting the family before you sneak off to a Christmas party, you may have an outfit change or two in your day. Wearing this core body shaper will take you from turkey to tequila - it's versatile enough to work around most outfits. The pale shade will work around most colour palettes, leaving you to focus on who you're grabbing under the mistletoe.
There are many ways to incorporate shapewear into your wardrobe around the Christmas period - allowing you to kick back and enjoy the things that really matter, like family - and red wine. Don't waste precious time feeling self-conscious; let yourself go a little with the handy help of shapewear.
Bottom line:
Taking green tea catechins - GTC - is one of the best ways to detox and diet to get into that tight fitting dress this Christmas.
