When you’re putting together your work wardrobe, what you wear underneath is just as important as what you wear on top. Whatever you wear—blouses, skirts, dress pants, power suits—they only truly look their best when the foundation underneath is flawless.

How you look at work can greatly affect your state of mind and your confidence—which is related to your performance at work. According to one survey:

• 72% of women feel they are taken more seriously when they look their best
• 44% of people feel that confidence is a key factor in hiring decisions
• 52% are worried about "tummy bulge"
• 95% admit to owning clothes that don't fit properly
• 43% of all women try on more than one outfit each day

What’s more, what you’re wearing underneath your work clothes can make a big difference in your physical health and comfort. Do you ever feel back pain from sitting all day, hunched in front of a computer, or from walking around in pumps? That pain may be related to poor posture. Wearing a firm compression shaper can hold your torso straighter for long hours. Not only can better posture prevent back pain, but it can make you look more confident.

To sum it all up, your undergarments are foundational to how you look and feel every day! Are you putting as much thought into yours as you should?
