Random non-clicky poll: undies

I need new underwear like yesterday. Assuming you wear underwear, where do you buy yours? I was blessed/cursed with an ass so I hate low cut undies that quarter-moon the hubbs. I also despise thongs, much to my husband's dismay, due to the fact that my ass gets hungry and eats them...Any recs on comfy non-granny panties?

Re: Random non-clicky poll: undies

  • I've been a VS girl for years, but then they changed their styles and my fatass wasn't having it.

    I did find some low rise bikini's that are low enough to not stick up over my jeans and fit my curves.

    I know a lot of people recommend hanky panky that they have at nordstrom.

  • I'm the same as you.Don't like thongs or anything low cut but I also don't like a full on grandma brief. I know what I can recommend not doing - buying the Hanes from Target (not that that matters) because they have all fallen apart! I buy VS but like Shaina have noticed a change in their styles but have dealt with it.?

  • Lane Bryant is my go to store for everything these days. I'm huge on one stop shopping, so it works great for me. I use to be a VS girl, but since gaining weight/having a baby/having boobs that don't fit into VS bras I have just given up on that store all together.

  • Not gonna lie, my stupid dachshund is a panty muncher (she knocks over the laundry basket and has a feast...nasty slut) so I don't spend a lot on underwears. I buy boycut ones from target that are the 5 for $20, or whatever the deal is. mossimo is the brand, I think? They'll have shorter "sexier" ones, to show more bottom butt cleavage, and then longer more comfy ones that cover everything. I like em.

  • If thongs VS ones that are super thin with barely a seam, otherwise I wear Hanes or Fruit of the Loom ones that are like mini little breifs I am blanking on the names because each brand has two similar ones, I wear those because I have a rather big booty and hips though and want full coverage without the grandma underwear look.

    ETA  Hipsters are one of the ones I wear

  • I have a gabillion from VS, the Pink line.  I love the cheeksters.  I like how there is actually a decent amount of fabric in the crotch area, meaning I can wear a pad with my period and not worry about it getting all scrunched up.  Does that make sense?

  • I bought these in Las Vegas when I forgot to pack underwear.  I wound up loving them.  They are comfortable, offer coverage, don't ride up, yet are still a little more than your typical cotton underwear.

  • VS is the way to go or gap body

  • I'm a cheapo so I shop Walmart. I have an enormous butt too, and I usually go for cheekies or boy shorts. Though if you don't like thongs, you may not care for the cheekies...
  • My absolute FAVORITE undies ever are from Aerie. I also have an ass that will devour a thong - I've tried time and time again to wear those things and it just doesn't happen.

    Most all my undies are boy shorts of some type. In my opinion, Aerie's are way more comfy & softer than VS... and way cheaper. You can catch their sales and get 7 pair for $25 vs. Victoria's 3 pair for $25.

  • I'm crazy cheap and I used to have lots of diff. underwear from all diff. places.  But I have found that my fav. underwear is the basic hanes cotton comfort soft Bikini's.  I tried their stretch ones, but I hated them (maybe those are the ones that fell apart on you Summer).  They shrunk or just weren't comfortable. 

    I can't do thongs, or boy shorts (they always ride up too). I did find that Barely There makes really comfortable bikinis as does Jockey.  They both make materials that are super comfy, I just don't buy them a lot since they are too pricey for me for the moment.  But I do find them sometimes pretty cheap at TJ Maxx or Marshals.

  • My favorites are my DKNY body lights seamless boy shorts.  Sadly, they were discontinued.  I own about 6 pair, though, so it gets me through most of the week.
  • Thanks guys! I need to go look in VS and Gap. We don't have a Gap Body so I may have to order online. Are the sizes pretty true to what you would normally wear? Glad to see other people have picky-panty syndrome too. Oh, and Mar - Rex is a panty snatcher too. It grosses me out!!

    Yeah Daisy is a panty/bra snatcher. Funniest was when she got a hold of my sports bra and literally had part in her mouth and a leg in one of the armholes.

    Sorry I'm a thong girl, but if I don't wear one then VS cheeky or boy shorts

  • A little late to this, but I am a thong girl and buy all mine from Frederick's of Hollywood.

    On weekends and in the evenings I tend to wear bikinis and those are just the 6 pack ones of either Hanes or Faded Glory.  I find neither rides up much.
