Spanx!

Have you ever worn Spanx?
I've heard the stories: "They don't work." "They're uncomfortable." "All they do is constrict your organs."
I have a feeling these people haven't worn legitimate Spanx garments or been to a Spanx store to get advice on how to get a properly-fitting garment.  I wear Spanx and this isn't true.
Just saying.
I've also heard this: "Spanks? What on Earth kind of services do you provide there?!" (These kind of comments come mostly from the male population.)
My answer: "Spanks is not a dominatrix dungeon." Period.
We are not a store that encourages or even accepts objectification from the male eye.  We only just started offering the "Spotlight on Lace" collection which is sultry but not crass.  It's for first-timers just delving into the shapewear world who don't want the shapewear look.  
Some Spanx taglines: "You can conquer the world with a little support." "Never underestimate a woman who wants her butt to look better in white pants."
Spanx is about girl power, not sex.
It's about comfort and support, not body-hating and squeezing into things that don't fit.
At Spanx, I'm personally going to make sure your garment fits you correctly and you're comfortable in it, be it a body suit, a pair of high-waisted shorts, or a bra-llelujah bra.  I am your new best friend and you'd darn well better let me in the fitting room so I can give you the best advice ever!
Make sure you bring your cocktail dress so I can choose the best garment for you!
Almost needless to say, I love working at Spanx.  
Come on in; I can't wait to meet you!

New Beginnings

I have news! I now work at the Spanx store at the King of Prussia mall!  I've found another way (besides working as a cosmetologist and esthetician) to help women feel beautiful and confident. 
I've also started my own makeup business: Makeup by Danielle C.  You can find my work and contact information on my facebook page: fb.me/fabulousbydanielle .  I do all sorts of makeup looks with the goal of enhancing my clients' natural beauty. I offer lash application and also do face painting and basic body painting!  I still do luxury facials and facial waxing on the side. I can come to my clients or we can meet at my place.
This new stage of my life is an exciting one.  I had a beautiful daughter (the most beautiful baby ever in the history of the world) at the end of February and have had the opportunity to visit her and her new parents several times in the past two months.  Her new mom is a fellow makeup artist and has become my makeup mentor, and an inspiration and encouragement in so many other ways!
