It's become very clear to me that Kim Kardashian wants us all to think she's a lot slimmer than she really is. She recently posted a picture to Instagram of her in a blush pink cropped turtle neck and matching pencil skirt that made her look like she's dropped another 20 pounds. Meanwhile the paparazzi pics of her in the same exact outfit from that very same day revealed a much fuller and curvier figure. What gives? But what really drew my attention was the glimpse of her nude-colored Spanx. It looks like I've discovered Kim's true secret to looking slim!

Kim wearing fajas doesn't exactly shock me. She's been pretty open about it in the past and has even said, "Spanx are my best friend." I mean, with all the form-fitted pencil skirts, crop tops and bodycon dresses she's been wearing lately it would only make sense, right? See Kim isn't much different from us (regular people) she wears fajas too!
While I don't recommend you wear them on a daily basis (they can compress your organs), I do believe they come in handy every once in a while especially when you're planning to wear a form-fitted number. So it definitely doesn't hurt to have at least one shapewear piece in your lingerie drawer. I think it's totally fine that Kim choose to wear a faja with this outfit (after all it is skin TIGHT), the problem is that we saw it!
There's nothing more embarrassing than having a pair of Spanx peaking out from underneath your clothing. Kim might want to go for a high-waisted panty or at least a longer skirt next time!
