Eva Longoria was spotted showing off her bikini bod the other day at a beach in Puerto Rico__. The Desperate Housewives actress looked amazing, but what really caught my eye was her not-so-flat stomach. Check out the photos here. Chicas, I know I'm not the only one that gets tired of seeing these celebs with hard rock abs! The fact that Eva now has a normal, little panzita really made me realize that some celebrities are just like us–real women! It also had me wondering how she gets it to look so flat in all her glamorous red carpet dresses. I think it's fair to say that Spanx may not be behind it. Certain dress styles can actually give the illusion of a smaller waist and a flatter stomach. So before you start filling your closets with new spring vestidos, check out a few of these styling tips that will give you an instantly leaner-looking figure. Don't be surprised if you suddenly get stopped for compliments!
