No amount of dieting, exercise or lipo can get the hips and waist to coexist harmoniously. If pants hit the hips correctly, there's that pesky pucker at the waistline. The glamorous minds at Minneapolis-based Hollywood Fashion Tape have a new solution for those days when a bulky belt won't do: the Hollywood Hip Hugger. Unlike other "invisible" belts, the stretchy, black Hip Hugger clips to belt loops in the back only, so no buckle or bulk in front. It's adjustable to fit sizes 2 to 16. It sells for $8.99 at hollywoodfashiontape.com. Look for it in stores soon.
