What Underwear Do You Wear?

What kind of underwear do you wear? I used to wear thongs and boy shorts, but then I went nutty and bought a dozen pairs of this black underwear. I wanted to keep things simple and streamlined, especially with rowdy toddlers to attend to!

But now I’m ready to mix it up again. Madewell’s new intimates are adorable. And I love love love these Hanky Panky lacy ones, too. It’s so nice to wear something soft and pretty under your clothes, right? It’s like a sexy little secret.

Oh, just holding some goldfish. NBD.

What kind do you like? Do you have a recommendation for cute affordable pairs? (I still swear by these for every day.)

P.S. I hate the word “panties.”
P.P.S. A French bra trick, and did you have sex on your wedding night?

Being the age I am underwear is important for reasons other than style. That said, my everyday underwear must be pretty and utilitarian. This is why I wear one of the two brands below-depending on time of this month. ?

Check them out!

If you are petite, try the girls section. I’ve found my most comfortable bralette (the only kind that I find comfy and that fits properly) @target, about $8. I actually buy quite a few clothes in the girls (and boys) at Patagonia, REI and target. My items are basically the same as they would be for adults, like yoga pants, down coats, but less expensive. A girls/boys L or XL fits my boyish petite frame really well. Unfortunately at 5’6″ I’m too tall for most pants but did find girls levis at thrift a while back that I just cuff and wear as crop, $3.

Gotta chime in here and put in a plug for the Wacoal “B Fitting” Bikini panties available at Nordstrom (http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/wacoal-b-fitting-bikini-3-for-39/3427833?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&fashioncolor=NUDE). They’re one-size-fits all, so comfortable, light and airy and the price is right.

I’m all about bralettes now. Screw underwires! I thought my boobs were too big but I think I do ok :).

I love aerie!! They have so many different styles and patterns. I was going nuts when I started wearing scrubs on a daily basis. I needed to find a way to express my individuality! That morphed into popsicle undies. When trying on wedding dresses, I didn’t realize that strangers would see you in your underwear. I remember my mom pointedly staring at me and then saying, “Did you bring anything that doesn’t have milkshakes on it?” Aannnnd my response was, “I have ones with ice skating polar bears…”

Cup of Jo, we’ve done this! AERIE. I think your post a while ago is where I first learned of the BEST bras and underpants around. :)
