testing, testing 1, 2, 3, the hip-T

my hip-t

I recently got to try out a “hip-T” – it’s basically the lower half of a t-shirt, with an elasticized waistband.

It was created by Christine & Kelley, two women who got tired of being self conscious while wearing their favorite low-rise jeans – after all, no one likes to flash their underwear!

The hip-t is worn over your pants, but underneath your shirt – it just looks like another t-shirt or lace-trimmed camisole underneath:

I tried my hip-t (disclosure, I got a free one to try out) during a shopping trip, driving my car and sitting in  cafe having coffee.  It fit true to size and was comfortable to wear – I didn’t even notice an extra layer.  I was impressed with the comfort and stability of the hip-t – I needed to adjust it after climbing out of the car, but it stayed put otherwise.

I’m quite long-waisted, so even normal rise pants tend to end up as low-rise on me – the hip-t is definitely going to be a part of my wardrobe from now on :-)

    I started your post thinking “why on earth would anyone want to fake a layered look?”, and then got to the low-rise pants problem. A-HA! Total problem, and suddenly I’m in love — I’ll be looking into these for sure. Thanks for the hot tip!
