GIVEAWAY CLOSED***
I have finally solved my problems. Okay, not all of them of course, but definitely one of them. And do you know what helped me? A wonderful company called isabelt!
I will admit that I have had some serious 'pants falling down' issues in the past. You may be wondering why I didn't just get a belt. Well, I did get one. It was black, big, and bulky. It made my shirt bulge out in this really weird way that I couldn't stand. The belt actually added inches to my waistline because of that. So now it just sits in my drawer, and I thought I would never find a belt that could actually fit my needs and didn't look completely obvious.
Enter isabelt. I had read all of their great info on their website. That isabelt is a fashion 'fix it'. It is a thin, fully adjustable clear plastic belt that virtually disappears when worn. Well, it sounded wonderful so far! It also boasts that it will prevent back gap, slippage, belt bulge (yes!) and belt bulk (yes, yes!) I was thrilled to have found something actually addressed the issues I had been having, and couldn't wait to try one of my own. I knew I would put it to a good test, because I am hard to please when it comes to belts (is that weird? LOL) And I knew that I needed to find a solution to my pants problem, for the sake of my poor embarrassed husband who has to be on butt covering duty when I bend down.
So I got my isabelt. When it arrived, I read through the directions a few times to make sure I could understand how to adjust it (I am not the most mechanical person). I figured it out, put it on, sized it right, and then went on with daily life. Right away I noticed it's comfort. It was not bulky, and didn't push into my tummy when I bent over. The plastic also felt very strong and sturdy, definitely something would hold up to lots of use. That day I needed to go to the store (the ultimate test right?) so I got changed out of my over sized tee and put on a more fitted (and clean) top. Guess what? NO BELT BULK!!! Yup, none. You could not even tell I was wearing it. That right there sold me, but I knew the ultimate test would be walking & shopping. So out I went. The isabelt held my pants up perfectly. There was no tugging my pants up after I walked awhile, which is a common issue of mine. The isabelt had solved my belt problems, and for that I (and my hubby) are grateful!
Here you can see how the isabelt worked for me! OLD BELT (BELOW)
ISABELT (ABOVE)
The isabelt is the perfect accessory for us moms. Are you between sizes right now? Trying to lose that baby weight, but not wanting to commit to a whole new wardrobe? That was my problem. I had lost a little weight but didn't want to have to spend money on new jeans. And who knows if I will keep losing or even gain a few. isabelt makes it very easy to find a belt that fits you perfectly. They offer many sizes & styles like:
- isabelt original design in S,M,L
- isabelt Plus - same design but for plus sized women
- isabelt Junior cute designs for those teens!
- isabelt Wide - a wider 1" version of the isabelt - the wider belt means added support
- isabelt Breast Cancer Awareness Belt - a portion of these sales go to the Susan G. Komen foundation!
- isastrips - this is their body & apparel tape! Can be used with isabelt products. If your pants don't have loops for a belt, just use your isastrips! Also works great to keep tees in place, bra straps in place, and so much more!
- isabelt is now available in black! This can be the perfect accessory to any outfit!
BUY IT: isabelt makes it real easy to purchase these belts! You can order right from their website! You can also check this listing to see if isabelt is available at a store near you!
GIVEAWAY: Lucky for you, I get to share the isabelt with 2 lucky readers!! I have the:

Boy, I sure could use one of these belts! I am a bit swaybacked and my pants always gape in the back at the waist. I probably would want to try the original isabelt in a size large. This sounds like a very cool product!

I could sure use this as I am making the transition back to regular clothes versus maternity ones. I'd love to have the isabelt wide.

I could use one because I'm short waisted, so a belt tends to cut me and make me look lopsided. This sounds perfect! I'd love the clear one!
i would love an isabelt.
with my hips i don't need anything draws the eyes to look at them .
i would want the ISABELT WIDE.
i love acessories. i like to buy an accessory first, then buy a dress to match!

I've been wanting one of these for so long! But, financial circumstances have made it impossible, would loooove to win one! I'd like the original in small. I have the same problem as you, wearing an untucked shirt but needing a belt only to have that huge bulge! Thanks so much for the opporunity.

Are you kidding me? I NEED one of these...I get so tired of "cracking it" as my husband calls it, even with long shirts!
yippee!

Why I would like isabelt: it's impossible to find jeans that fit me correctly (or at least so far it has been ;) )!

I love to wear longer t-shirts, but I MUST wear a belt with my pants! I love that this eliminates the bulge! I would like to win the wide version!

I totally relate! I also have the embarassing gap issue in the back and regular belts do not always solve that problem! I would want the Isabelt large. Thanks!

I'd love to win and try this product! I'd like to have the isabelt wide, still trying to lose the baby weight. Pants don't fit just right and this might be a better answer instead of trying to buy a whole new wardrobe all the time! Thanks for the giveaway!

I would like the wide. I need it because I get those gaps in my pants but I am not fashionable enough to pick coordinating belts.
tifg45@excite.com
for me, I have a hard time to find a belt that fixs me without me having to make extra holes in it. And it's also hard to find one that is just plain and simple. either belt would be good for me, but I guess if I had to pick I would pick the isabelt wide.mavans@scottsboro.org
I need this because I always show my underwear when I bend down. I hope it works.
mccataquet(at)comcast(dot)net
If I had known this existed, I probably would own one by now! This is exactly what i need! I hate the bulk of belts but I need SOMETHING because I'm still losing a lot of baby weight and in between pants sizes on a regular basis!

I need this! Why hadn't I heard of this before? I would like the Large, if I win. And I need it because I am desperately trying to lose weight. My son is almost 16 months old and I'm still working off the pregnancy weight. My husband has given me a big budget for new clothes, but I don't want to buy any until I get to my goal size. This would help me out a lot!
This would be perfect for me! I'm constantly pulling up my pants. It drives my husband crazy. Like you, I don't want to have a huge bulge under the shirt. Great stuff!
I need an isabelt because my pants never fit well in the waist. There is usually a gap at the back and this would help. I like the clear one in large.

I need this!!!! My pants are always falling down after wearing them for a couple of hours. I do not like wearing a traditional belt because of the bulge it leaves. I would like either of them.

i have big hips but a small waist, this would be perfect for me! all my jeans are too wide at the top!

I get that back-of-the-pants gape that I need a belt for but hate wearing one because of the bulk! I need isabelt!

I've never owned ANY belt before, because none of them fit properly-- I've always settled for a long scarf around the waist! But this has limits. My size is, apparently, not one manufacturers actually believe women have; there is ALWAYS too much room in the waist, even when the rest of the pants are skin-tight! So you can see I neeeeeed this belt, or at least my oft-scandalized co-workers need me to have it!

I need an isabelt because I am in the process of losing weight and I hate having to constantly tug on my pants to keep them where they should be. My other issue is that I ALWAYS have that gap at the back of my pants and feel like my butt is hanging out. This would be perfect! I would like the isabelt Large if I win, please!

I would love one of these!( the original) My daughter is 15 months and I have lost my baby weight but haven't had the time to buy new clothes. I have tried clothes shopping with her -didn't work out to well! So a nice thin belt would be a great solution (I also have the big bulky black one!)

Hi, I am a follower!

I would love to try this!! I had my daughter 7 months ago and ever since I cannot find pants the fit me right!! They are either too small in the hip or fall right off of me. I'd hate to buy a whole new wadrobe so I feel like this would be the solution to my problems!! I would like to try the Original in Large.
I'd love to win this for my sweet sisters...
To help my pants fit on my postpartum body!
I need this!! I had my second child 6 months ago and before I was pregnant with her I had gained a little weight, which I've now lost along with the baby weight, and nothing fits right. On top of that, the LAST thing I need is a bulky belt adding to the belly bulge I have right there so this would be perfect!
Thanks!

isabelt wide
My sister would love this. Please accept my entry. Thank you.
Isabelt original
I'm a gapper. I can't stand to have my underwear hanging out there for all the world to see.
I hate when the top of my pants doesn't fit and this would work perfectly.
erma.hurtt@sbcglobal.net

I love wearing long shirts, but I need to wear a belt or my jeans will hang too low for work.
And I would need the isabelt wide!

I gain and lose weight, then gain and lose again. When I'm a bit thinner, my slacks are loose, hang on my hips and drag on the floor. This belt would sure help me. I would need a regular in the large size. This is an unusual and delightful giveaway.

I need this because the pants I wear to work stretch out at the waist during the day and I'm always having to pull them up. And I hate the bulk of belts and how they cut into me.

This would be a great addition to my collection, but I also love that it helps get rid of belt bulk!!
strycker@slu.edu
I have crack gap :( lol
I would LOVE one of these belts! I have been on Weight Watchers since January, and while losing 25 lbs is fantastic, it does present a major problem with the whole "pants falling down thing." Even my new jeans, that I JUST BOUGHT are already starting to feel loose. Plus, I have the same problem you did in that I only have one belt, and it is horribly bulky (plus, I'm down to my last belt loop, and pretty soon it won't even be useful anymore). I would love to try an Isabelt!
