Make your a** look good and help 'support' other women at the same time

If you're a woman, you've no doubt heard of Spanx. They are the modern day version of the girdle. These support undergarments are commonly referred to as 'shapers'.

But the thing that I like about Blakely is that she listened when women told her that her product was too expensive. She responded by creating a line for Target called "Assets". And my favorite part of the line is that a portion of each sale goes to Blakely's Foundation, which 'supports' women in several ways.

I also viewed an inspiring profile of Blakely on CNBC's "The Entrepreneurs".  You can watch it here (via Hulu):

I mean, seriously, what's not to like about a woman who says this:

So, please 'support' this foundation if you can!!
