A little extra effort:
I am not a fan of hot weather, especially dressing which normally requires several layers of shape wear, two pairs of tights and assorted silicone add ons.
My legs are glow in the dark white, my arms are lorry driver dark. Having spent a few hours in the garden over the last few days my head and shoulders are red, border line sun burnt.
Determined to get out I had to put in a little (actually a lot) of extra effort:
Fake tan on the legs, shoulders and upper arms. This was easier said than done, multiple layers in places, moisturiser to blend, shower off excess and then re apply and blend.
I did brush on some setting powder to the legs to get rid of the shine. I was impressed how my multiple scars on my legs were pretty well hidden.
The result was bare legs and no tights! As the first layer of tights is used to hold the silicone hips in place I had to wear my smaller hip pads.
Minimal shape wear was just one pair of but shaper pants holding the hips in place and two pairs of high Spanx.
No bra so I had to glue (Evo-Stick) my M&S foam breast forms in place. I think they were either the smallest or medium forms so as not to show with the strappy dress. A little contouring was used to accentuate the cleavage.
I was very happy with the results and managed an afternoon out in the heat.
I did however have to remember to put a towel on the car seat so as not to leave fake tan everywhere. Any light coloured clothing or object I came into contact with now needs cleaning.
It was a lot of effort but worked well. I don't think I will be going to this much effort again for a while.
And as I have previously said; I do not recommend using Evo-Stick to affix breast forms unless you are prepared to suffer for your art!
