These swim bottoms are embedded with UPF 50+, providing further protection from the sun. A nylon and elastane fabric blend — that one of our editors called “nice” and “textured” —help these bottoms remain comfortable and slightly stretchy.
“This is my first exercise dress, and I absolutely love it,” says former editor Amanda Fama. “I have it in a size medium, and it’s just snug enough without being too tight. It feels supportive (yet chic), and then inner shorts don’t ride up while you’re moving. I went to a happy hour after a workout in this dress recently and felt super confident.”
“This T-shirt is a layer[ing] essential to wear with blazers, cashmere sweaters, jackets and more,” says writer Jannely Espinal. “I have a similar version of this tee and I wear it whenever I need a fitted look. The design features smooth edges and its breathable fabric is ideal for those warmer days. It is one of my top things to wear whenever I need something sleek yet casual.”
Whip these shaping shorts out to smooth the appearance of your tummy and sides, give your booty a bit of lift and prevent any chafing under dresses and shorts. Speaking from personal experience, these won’t roll down at the waistband and are comfortable enough to wear from day to night.
Traveling soon? This one-and-done sleeveless jumpsuit is super comfy, but looks way more put-together than your average sweatsuit. It won in our Gifts We Love awards last year!
“They’re so comfy, they feel like you’re just pulling on a pair of leggings,” says social video producer Anita Chomenko. “The flare at the bottom plus the pleating detail on the pant make it look like a tailored trouser. They have some compression but they don’t feel restrictive. I keep reaching for these!”
I have been wearing these über-flattering dark wash barrel jeans non-stop since I got them earlier this fall. The petite cut was perfect for me right off the rack, which is amazing as a 5’1” gal who usually has to get all of her jeans hemmed. Since they just launched, they’ve never been on sale before, so I’ll take the 15% off as my chance to snag the black wash!

As the name suggests, this “undetectable” shaping underwear is a game-changer for special occasions and everyday alike. It’s full-coverage in the front to smooth out your tummy, but has elastic-free edges and a thong back to eliminate any visible panty lines under leggings, form-fitting skirts and more. For those in search of a little more coverage, try the smoothing brief style, which is also on sale right now.
This super high-waisted brief is about to become your secret weapon for looking and feeling your best in even the most form-fitting pieces in your closet. It smooths your stomach and prevents the dreaded “mushroom-top” effect that can come from tight waistbands. The bestseller with over 15,000 ratings on Amazon is on sale in four colors right now!
This waist-snatching cami works incognito under blouses, T-shirts and dresses to smooth exactly where you need it to. It’s comfortable enough to wear all day, with straps that won’t dig into your shoulders.

The perfect leggings do exist, and they’re on sale right now at Spanx. Equipped with medium compression and available in three inseam lengths, these leggings are bound to become your new go-to pair.
For those days when your usual leggings just won’t cut it, try a faux leather pair. They dress up an otherwise casual outfit, and they’re so much more comfortable than genuine leather pants.
Combine the shaping effect of Spanx with the everyday wearability of jeans and you get these supremely flattering flares. The high waist and five wash options go with a range of tops, from tees to sweaters, blazers and more.
To match your new favorite sweatpants, add this half-zip to cart. The layer is on sale in a ton of colors for as low as $59 on the retailer’s site — that’s over 50% off!
No wardrobe is complete without a little black dress. This versatile frock can be dressed up or down for holiday parties, office days and more.
Whether you’re hitting the pickleball court or running errands, this sporty skirt with built-in shorts is up for the task.
This chic vest is perfect for pairing with jeans, capris, skirts and more. Because it’s both polished and flattering, you can rock it for both your 9-5 and your 5-9 plans.
Yes, I’m including yet another pair of leggings in this list, but hear me out — there’s never been a more flattering pair when it comes to your backside. These work their signature Spanx magic for what the brand calls a “built-in booty lift” (no pricey surgery needed).
If you prefer a more flared leg over a skinny one, these yoga pants are your best bet. The “flare” is more similar to a bootcut than a bell-bottom, so they won’t get in the way of any vinyasa flows or morning jogs.
These figure-flattering pull-on pants are a bestseller for a reason. There are no zippers, no buttons, and no pockets (so no bulk!) at the hips, creating the smoothest effect possible in a pair of pants.
