celebrity Blake Lively Feet

Like many women, her body was turning against her. Gravity was taking hold, her thighs were expanding, and cellulite was puckering her once smooth skin. Creams had no effect, thongs restrained nothing, and support hosiery did not stay hidden
Matters came to a head when she was getting ready for a party, and was shocked to discover that her pale linen trousers revealed all her flaws and blemishes
But a genius flash of inspiration saved the day. She grabbed a pair of scissors, cut the feet off her pantyhose, slipped them on, and the lines and imperfections were masked from the world's gaze
It made a huge difference to her wardrobe, and at that moment Blakely realized she was onto something big
Since her changing room epiphany Blakely's range of undergarments have Spanxed the backsides of millions of women. There have been impressive endorsements from celebrity fans on the red carpet, and Oprah says she can't live without them. And it's hardly surprising
With Spanx there are no lumps, no bumps, no VPL (visible panty lines) - just a smooth svelte shape that makes women feel like a million dollars. And this has helped to create a company that sold an estimated $350 million worth of products in 2008
Yet the brains behind the power panties and hosiery empire started her entrepreneurial career with two major drawbacks - she didn't know the first thing about the pantyhose industry and had no background in business
After graduating from Florida State University and failing her law school entrance exam, she spent several months dressed as a chipmunk at Disney World before embarking on a career selling photocopiers. She excelled in sales and stayed in the job for seven years, though it was not her passion
But then she created a product that fulfilled a need among consumers, and despite a lack of formal business training had the courage to embark on her entrepreneurial career. She is the absolute embodiment of the can-do attitude
It took Blakely a year to create a prototype that she was happy with. She worked on the design at night and on weekends, and at the same time tried to patent her revolutionary product
