The IsaBelt bills itself as "the woman's original virtually invisible fashion clear belt." It's basically a clear bra strap that you sling around your waist to hold your pants up so you don't have an embarrassing plumber's-butt situation (or as IsaBelt fears, flash the entire front of your thong to passersby). Because a virtually invisible plastic belt is better than a stylish leather belt. We didn't have the heart to post it here, but click on to watch the 3:30 IsaBelt infomercial, which explains how to adjust the bra strap — er, belt — in detail, to the tune of "Since You Been Gone."
