in honor of that dumbass girl on Survivor: China who decided not to wear a bra on day 1, who clearly has never watched a single season of this show….i decided today we’d talk about our underthings.
For a very long time, my mother was instrumental in my underwear purchasing. It was always jockey. safe. plain. sensible. boring. bikini. but, truth be told, the jockey bikini was not a bikini. no, folks, this is a BRIEF if i’ve ever seen one.
yes, i was pretty much covered head-to-toe in cotton fabric until i broke free from the mother and discovered a little place called Victoria’s Secret.
my journey there began with the bikini. the real bikini.
i dabbled in the boy short for a short while. a very short while.
they felt like, well, they felt like shorts. and they kept riding up. i did NOT enjoy these.
i dabbled in lace for about a minute and a half, and realized they were NOT for me. lace underwear are meant to be worn for 15 minutes, give or take. they are not meant to be worn for an entire day. i’m definitely a cotton kind of girl. i have me a few little lace numbers, but they are not meant to be worn as underthings, if you catch my drift.
and then i discovered my beloved v-string.
ah! bliss. there are NO lines! they are super comfy! it’s like not wearing any underwear at all!
and they are hot damn sexy. which certainly doesn’t hurt.
i mean, i’ll be honest and throw it right out there that most of time i don’t wear any underwear at all. when i wear skirts. it’s just little little sexy secret i carry around that no one knows about. except for me. (and now all of you) and the random people i occasionally flash (by accident, you pervs) when getting out of my car.
but when i wear pants, i wear underwear. and it’s always a v-string. and it’s always from Victoria’s Secret.
so…what about all of you?? whatcha got on underneath your clothing today? every day? do you change it up? always wear the same kind? shop at the same stores?

Shocking!!! You don’t wear underwear when you wear skirts? Honey, you must have a much better view for those voyeurs than I do! I’m sending you an e-mail that, in light of this post, you might enjoy!

It’s not raunchy!! It’s sexy! at least to me! it’s a personal thing though…some people can’t be comfortable going commando. plus i don’t have to worry about lines at all…
Christine says
I do the opposite…I go commando when I wear pants/sweats/whatever. But when I wear skirts I cover up to avoid the accidental flash. I’m with Jen…am I making some faux pas that I’m unaware of?
Jen says
I wear the boycut but have not figured out how to get rid of lines and still feel comfy. I can NOT go without…ewwww. A little raunchy, Ali? 😉
LAVENDULA says
ummm no comment on my um underwear.
Jen says
since we’re being personal here-just curious…why do a person not wear underwear with skirts? For fun or is there some fashion faux pas that gets crossed everytime i do it that I should know about?
FENICLE says
Oh so personal…letting us all know you go commando!
When my mom controlled my undies they always came in a plastic package of 3 from Wal-Mart! 🙂
Now that I pay for them they still do!
SleepynIta says
I am all for the boyshorts at bedtime or seamless vTech laSenza underwear during the day. Lace is for “relations” nights only…….
As far as Survivor, if I was ever on that show you would be damned tooting that I would be wearing LAYERS of clothing, bathing suits and underwear before going to any “pre filming” events, you never know what kinda crap they will pull on you. All I have to say is thank goodness they were given their sneakers.

I’m with Beck — GRANNIES all the way! But, I am 39 weeks preggers just about…. And, mind you, I’ve been wearing Thyme maternity underwear, which is KINDA like the jockey bikini, but more bikini. Ugh, who wants to hear about a humungous pregger girl’s undies?? 😉
And, should we call you BRITNEY, Your Flashness????!!!!!!!! 😉
Beck says
I wear granny panties.
I didn’t always – I used to be the Sexy Lace V-String Gal. But 3 kids and one fupa later, underpants don’t fit right.
Aren’t you glad I told you? You’re welcome, interweb!
