Hang up your Spanx. VEDETTE is sucking your ass in while keeping you looking and feeling hot, hot, hot when you take that dress off.

all i can say is wow – this stuff is so hot in a sexy-crazy-corset-shape-wear-throw-back-to-50's-housewife-girdle way…i don't know what to do with myself.

now i just need someplace amazing to go so i can wear my wicked hot corset under a bad ass dress and have the most amazing hourglass shape and tight as a soccer ball butt while looking forward to undressing for someone special afterwards and parading around in it. boom.

heck, maybe i'll just wear it around the house.

totally loving this look. it's just smokin ol' fashioned hot. i tested it out on a male friend who said it looked like a sexy biking outfit but no way was it gonna be hot on. well, he changed his mind, fast. look, there's a peek a boo cut out for your vajinnee and butt, so i mean, c'mon. 

the bra is not part of it – it's just this sexy girdle thing and i am mad about it.

this is the LENORA – it's $72
