I wear the low rise cotton hipsters from the Gap:

And for thongs, I wear the Gap low-rise cotton thongs. I like the quality and the fit.

Mary Green. I find them incredibly comfortable, and my husband thinks they are sexy.

Target. Fruit of the Loom hipster 3-pack all the way.

Only wear fancy panties when the situation calls for it.


Amen, sister!

my vote is for Costco. they've lasted since forever, and I change underwear 2 to 3 times a day.


Why do you change underwear so often?


Because I don't like panty liners.

Anyway, on the unsenw crotch: when it's open the fabric rubs more vigorously in the wash and it dries faster so it kills more germs than the tightly stitched ones.


Interesting reasoning, but I'm not sure I buy it.

I'm pretty sure VS does this because it's cheaper and easier (read: more profitable). Either way, it's my preference to have it sewn down. So, I'm done with VS.

And, I agree with the PP. What in the world is with those VS models lately? Have you seen the lips on these women? Those posters in the mall.... these women's lips are gigantic. Not even really attractively plump. Who approves these photos?

I'm the Jockey Elance bikini wearer. I never thought to try these, but might give them a try. A little cuter than regular bikinis.

That's the thing I like about Jockey. Same style, year after year. I hate when I find a style I like then they change it.

I like the low rise hipster and the low rise bikini. Both are awesome, fit well, 100 percent cotton, and comfy. No riding up or down.

they have some lacy varieties that are actually REALLY pretty and sexy, but I don't find them as comfortable as the cotton ones.

They are almost always on sale, too. And they run a bit big. I wear a size small and, well, my bum's not small anymore.


Also, my hubs would jump me if I were wearing six pairs of granny panties and a chastity belt. But a pair of black undies, even cotton, and black bra, are pretty sexy for every day use, in my opinion!


I totally agree. I'm not against sexy undies, but I really want to be comfy and need something inexpensive for daily wear. DH could care less, as he just wants the undies off as quickly as possible anyway.

And, I'm with you on the black undies and black bra. Flattering (for a post-baby figure) and sexy.

Wow. Really? Comfortable underwear is enough to draw your husbands away from you? Better look closer. After a few years together you guys should get over it... Isn't it about more than sexy lingerie?

switched from victorias to gap. love the gap for comfort, though i wouldn't say they wear well. you might get one year out of them.

I used to swear by VS bikini briefs but the ones I bought in the last 2-3 yrs are tinier and crappier quality. I threw them out. So now I am ready to throw out the older, better ones so thanks for this thread! I'll try Costco.

Surprised no one has mentioned Aerie. A juniors brand, sure, but their lace tangas and thongs are amazing. So much more comfortable than VS.

They have good sales, too, so I wait and then stock up.
