A Bonus Deal Of The Day, Because It’s Christmas (And Because We Heart SPANX)

From today until 12/31, you’ll get 20% off all SPANX purchases over $50 at Bare Necessities – just click through this link and enter discount code SPANX20 to take advantage of the deal.

In light of this happy occasion, we couldn’t think of a better time for a fond SPANX retrospective. Use our reviews to get some ideas, then slip on your new SPANX and happily ignore all those daytime TV hosts telling you what not to eat after January 1.

One writer swore in January that the Hide-and-Sleek Panty was “a lot stronger than my will power.” So true.

In our Underwear For Your Shape guide, we highlighted SPANX ideal pieces to sport under hip-hugging cocktail wear because…they are.

Readers and writers proved us right when they shared their favorite shapewear – the thighs/hips/tummy section of our Shapewear Guide reads like a SPANX stockroom list.

And then Bare Necessities told us the Power Panty was one of their best sellers . Would you question the majority at an upscale lingerie store?

We even dig SPANX’s fashion sense – their patterned tight-end tights were in our Fall ’08 Wardrobe Guide .

So happy holidays, from us to you. Go get some on-sale SPANX.
