Default Ladies' carry options for summer

Ladies, we will soon be switching our closets for spring/summer. Well, hopefully. I use a Remora holster, but that doesn't work with everything in my summer wardrobe. I don't always wear a belt, sometimes I even wear a dress!

Any advice/reviews on the Belly Band, Concealment Undershirt Tank, and Concealment Compression Shorts would be welcome.

Besides comfort, I'd like something that isn't black. I carry a J-frame (638) and hopefully will be carrying a Shield by summer.

Thanks for your input!

Thanks for video links, I've watched Falia's youtube channel for a while.

I was hoping for some feedback from those who have used these products. I guess I'll try a couple and add to my holster collection.

There's a product that's currently available called the "flashbang". It's a holster that attaches to the center section of the bra. It's actually a pretty neat idea. A girl at my department conceals a Ruger LCP in this fashion. Just do a web search and locate the video that demonstrates it. It presents quite fast.

Yeah, I've seen the flashbang, not what I'm looking for though. Have watched videos and read blogs, I guess I need to try some of these products and then post reviews here for other women. Maybe I need to contact companies and test products for them!

I've been thinking of asking the local gun shop to bring our the Cornered Cat lady with all her holsters for a presentation on women's carry options. I bet it would be a sell-out!

I too wish I could try a bunch of these things before buying.

FWIW I'm considering a shoulder holster myself for summer. I always wear pants and usually have a belt and almost always a light jacket or long sleeve shirt but with my work I think something in a shoulder harness would be more easily concealable.
