Do you match your underwear to your outfit?

If so, do you plan ahead or is it just the best that'll work that's laying in the drawer?  Do you feel 'off' if it doesn't match?

Or.. are you the type that ca rock a striped bra and checked undies with a floral dress? lol

    I never match my lady garments. I figure DH enjoys ANY underwear I put on, and he's more interested in my tits than my bra. And it's never bothered me.

    that's me!

  • It depends.  Typically I just don't care.  But if it happens to work out, and I think about it, I'll match them.

    This, but if I do it subconsciously (I usually pick out undies first) and then realize later in the day, I sometimes have squeled in the bathroom.

    And I do'nt know why, but right now most of my bras are floraly with pinks, so I have been buying a lot of pink undies to semi-match

  • I usually try to pull the closest match out of the drawer, I'm never a matchy matcher.  Sometimes I couldn't care less and it gets a little ridiculous. 

    Every once in awhile I'm in the ladies room and I lol at myself because I'll be wearing a nice, professional dress with some skull and crossbones thong or something lol

     

  • I use to be really bad about that, THEY HAD to match, as i've gotten older (gotten bills to pay) buying panties and bras to match Everything i own just got to be a little um...pricey!! But i'm still a believer in that they should match it just doesn't always work out that way. I do try to match them the best i can to what i've got that still fits. dang Bc made my girls grow lol

    Oh god no, I'm just happy to have a bra that holds the girls up.  If it looks nice, that's a bonus.

    I don't really try to match them ever.  Jason prefers all black bras and panties, so if I think I want to try to get some, I'll do the black & black, but typically I don't even think about matching them.  Like right now I have on a brown bra and hot pink panties, and I'm wearing black dress pants and a black and white top. 

    I'm also the girl who doesn't care if my socks match as long as I am wearing long pants and you cant see them.

  • When you have big boobs, it's  not really like you have a wide selection of patterened bras.  So, my bras are all either black or beige.  And I wear boring old Hanes Her Way cotton panties (mid-rise bikinis) so they only match on accident.  I do try to make sure they don't SHOW through whatever pants I have on though.  lol

  • I don't usually match my bra to my underwear or either to my outfit for the day.  The only exception is when I am wearing black or dark colors.  I try to wear black bras & underwear with these so if anything peeks out, it is not noticed.

    I don't have big boobs and I still only own black and beige bras!  Mine grow outwards, so I have to have just the right amount of padding to push them in a little, but not give me wonderbra cleavage.  So there are very few styles that I can/will actually wear and feel comfortable in.

    Is that TMI?

    I agree with the selection problem; I'm a 36D and I have a hard time finding pretty bras.  I only try to match on rare occasions.  I do make sure that my underwear doesn't show through what I'm wearing.

  • I've found one bra in my entire adult life, that had a print.  it was a cherry print and it was from Lane Bryant.  And so I immediately ordered it.  And it didn't fit.  That was NOT a 42H.  I swear, why can't they just make universal ACTUAL sizing?!?!

     Like this!! Yes I usually go with the black, beige, and white..so boring and plain but the patterned ones don't hold up! Especially if you have big boobs. my H always tells me that I should wear thongs but I like the ones that show half the bootayyy i think their comfy and kind of sexy

  • Odd that this convo is happening, DH just text me the other day and was asking about my underwear and told me he likes it when I wear thongs, he has never said this before. I love boy shorts, but I have subconsciously been trying to wear thongs, but it isn't going very well, I think yesterday is the only day it happened. I don't match my underwear/bra to my outfit unless I am going out or to a wedding or somewhere that I actually planned my outfit and then I will try to match. 

     Usually I just wear whatever I grab out of the drawer.
