My problem with them was it was a pain to pee and I have a slight amount of scoliosis, so they never fit my shoulders. One shoulder is a little higher than the other so in most shirts I'm fine, but it stood out in body suits.

Not again!!! lol Because I know I'm gonna be tempted to try one as a trend-follower, but I also know the nightmares that will probably ensue. lol I did used to wear them often as a kid, in the 80s when they were THE thing. But now...I'd be way too self-conscious about my stomach and "love handles" (although I haaaate saying that because it shouldn't matter), not to mention I'd feel like I was wearing one of J's old onesies. The snaps and crotch are so uncomfy and difficult to maneuver when you're in public, and they pull on you. I'm a high-waisted gal, and wearing any shirt tucked in typically is not at all flattering on me - at least in my view - and this would be even worse. Again...hate that I succumb to that feeling, but it is what it is; even self-love advocates are human. ;)<br /><br />BUT...if you've never tried one, or even if you have and want to again, DO IT! You might be pleasantly surprised and have a completely different response!

I had a few when I was in grade school (early 90s), the prettiest of which was a lovely burgundy, green and cream floral print one that I wore most frequently with dark green pants. I'd certainly sport them again these days. They're handy and attractive, and can go well with certain 50s outfits, as your first (great!) photo here alludes to.<br /><br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4885867892898159023.post-62111565052417114512015-04-23T21:41:30.763-04:002015-04-23T21:41:30.763-04:00I was in gymnastics for years and wore them ALL th...I was in gymnastics for years and wore them ALL the time!

Who needed pants? <br /><br />I still like the idea of them as something to tuck in, but like the other commenter - lumps and bumps keep me away from them. I tried on swimsuits today, much to my distaste.
