As savvy chiconomistas, we know you love multi-purpose products. When you think about it, they are like a two for one sale. So, why don’t we demand that out of our garments? And no, we are not talking about antibacterial shirts whose labels insist you don’t have to wash them.  In the looking-lovely-for-less land of chiconomise, we mean tights and shapewear that help you save, slim and send cellulite packing. So, treat yourself this autumn to some two-in-one wonders.

Slimming Stockings

Have a serious caffeine habit? Then make another habit of wearing caffeine tights from Skinkiss, £24.23 for a pack of three (RRP: £32.30). They made a huge hosiery stir back in 2004 and are back to give you perfect pins with their not-so-secret anti-cellulite ingredient, caffeine. Despite the crisper weather in autumn, you won’t mind wearing these slimming stockings because the more you cover your legs, the more you won’t have to.

Caffeine Shapewear

Made from the buff-body-giving gods of Lytess, this shapewear (that you can don as outerwear) trims your figure and uses fat-burning caffeine to help it stay that way and shea butter to keep your skin soft and supple. So forget embarrassing ashy legs and dry knees, even if you forget to moisturise. Choose from this shapewear’s leggings, £49.95 (RRP: £54.95); capris, £44.95 (RRP: £49.95); or shorts, £39.95 (RRP: £44.95). We prefer wearing the leggings and capris with boots, while the shorts look great under a skirt.
