Bras and panties

Do yours match? Do you wear the same kind all the time or do you have a special pair for extra fun nights? What color(s) are you wearing right now?

Mine never match unless it's by accident. I buy a lot of black stuff though, so I guess it wouldn't be too hard to make them match if I needed to, but I've never bought a full set.

Right now I've got aqua blue and pink bra and black and white striped bikini bottoms. And I'm boring; I have no fancy under garments.

Can you tell I'm bored?

    currently they do, but that is simply by chance.
    Do you wear the same kind all the time or do you have a special pair for extra fun nights?
    I do both. I buy fun ones (silly patterns or what not) for normal everyday use, but then have other ones for sexy nights or nights out
    What color(s) are you wearing right now?
    I've got my Black cheeksters on right now and a black bra

    Do mine match?  Mostly never.  I buy my boyshorts from AE (when they're on sale after christmas...every year) so most of them are Christmas themed (I'm special like that).  Bras are VS and dang comfy.  I also bought BF a box of Christmas boxers when we first started dating.  So obviously, we like Christmas undies.  Duh.  That's pretty weird.

    I have some special ones, but as Liv says, they just end up on the floor.  Plus I've gained weight so they don't look as good as they used to, ya know? 

    My undies now are Christmas themed, snowflakes :)  awww, Christmas

    PS - It's ACTUALLY getting close to Christmas, so I'm not as crazy as you think!

    I once dated a guy who insisted they had to match. Fortunately, H is not like that. Most of the time I go for comfort, but I do have nicer stuff as well.

    Usually if I match with the daily stuff it's only because I own a lot of black and tan. But right now I have a black top and white with black polka dots bottom.

    I really loved the Barely There cotton bikinis, but they don't make them anymore.

    Do yours match?
    Always... Most of my bras are tan, black, or a pastel color/print but I also have navy, orange, teal and like a dark pink-ish purple bra. I have panties that match every bra or at least coordinate. If I don't have panties or a bra to match what I want to buy,  I buy something to match or nothing at all. lol I'm weird like that.

    What color(s) are you wearing right now?
    Black and lace bra and black lace with a sheer material panties. They are kind of sexy ;)

    Do you wear the same kind all the time or do you have a special pair for extra fun nights?
    I definitely have several extra sexy pairs for special nights with BF, but he never seems to notice for more than 30 seconds lol.

    Finally, My answer to the poll is:
    D. All of the above. Sometimes I choose not to wear underwear especially if I am wear shapewear of any kind. I own "g strings", briefs, bikini cut but I wear boy shorts, thongs and cheekies mostly. I also wear boxers to bed.

    Haha Liv my BF is the same way - he likes to look at me in lingerie, but he says he prefers plain old naked anyway so what's the point.

    I don't usually match, but I used to. In college I always wore thongs and matched them to my bra, as well as matching them to my outfit in some way. Needless to say I had TONS of underwear back then.

    Now I pretty much stick to boy shorts. They are the most comfortable without actually wearing granny panties. And I always have to swap to sports bras when I'm not at work or going out, because regular ones are just too uncomfortable for DD boobs.

    Currently I am wearing a grey and silver leopard print Vicky's bra, and Winnie-the-Pooh boy shorts. Yes, I'm 26 and I have Pooh underwear - judge away.


    ETA: Re-reading this post makes me feel really boring and old. With the exception of my cartoon underpants.

    Mine never match.  I don't even own any matching sets.

    I despise thongs.  I can't imagine who was the first person to think they were a good idea.

    Most of the time, I wear hipsters or low-rise briefs.

    Sousa: I would definitely still have my Cookie Monster underwear and my Elmo underwear if I hadn't gotten too small for them. I love cartoon underwear, but usually buy the boring stuff because it's cheaper, lol.

    Blue: I like the Christmas theme, lol. At least you're in style for the winter months! : )

    No, they don't match unless I'm feeling fun, and it's usually boring like black with black. I have one bra that has big tropical flowers on it, so I can pair lots of solid colored panties with it, but usually I don't care.  

    I do have "special" underwear - I loooove lace panties. They make me feel so pretty! My favorite pair is lime green lace and I have another mesh pair with butterflies on it.

    My current underwear is leopard spotted bikinis with black trim and my bra was a present to myself - it's red with black polka dots, black lace on the cups and a tiny black bow on each strap. It totally doesn't match, but having big boobies usually means you can't find super-cute bras, so whenever I find them, I snatch them up and wear them whenever I can! =D

    Ok for starters the title of this thread made me completely cringe. EEEEK. I hate that word!!!

    Moving on....

    I rarely match on purpose.  My bras are either black, white, or beige.  

    I have over 100 pairs of underwear, all from VS.  I have a problem with walking in there & not leaving without 5 new pairs of underwear apparently.

    The majority of them are bikinis & thongs.  FI prefers plain black bikinis so if I'm being fun for him that's what I wear!

    Right now I'm wearing navy boyshorts & no bra.  I got home from work, put on my PJ's, & don't plan on moving from the couch all night :)

    Do yours match? 

    I have a couple pairs that match, but for the most part, no.  

    Do you wear the same kind all the time or do you have a special pair for extra fun nights? 
    Tee hee.  I love the VS lace trim thongs, so I'm slowly converting my underwear wardrobe, as it were, to be all of them.  They're super cute and sooo comfy.  And practically no VPL.  EVER.  As far as extra fun nights go, I had a couple fancy things with exFI, but he kept those (I'm really hoping they don't end up on the internet...) and so I'm starting to rebuild my fun wardrobe.  So far I've got an unlined black lace bra.  Which is apparently really hot.  So, I think I'm going to go from trying to cover me up in the sexy stuff to just matching stuff slightly outside my comfort zone.  :)

    What color(s) are you wearing right now?
    I'm wearing a white bra and a grey, white and pink leopard print thong.  It's got a gray lace band :)

    If I could, I would.  But they don't make bras that match every pair of my underroos.

     I have some special pairs that I save for fun nights/special occasions.

    You're welcome. :]  I hate it when that happens... I will cry if they retire the deco bra, because that's the only bra I've been comfortable in since I hit a DD cup (which was sophomore year of high school, mind you).  However, I am totally geeking out because these people -- /> <a href="http://www.affinitasintimates.com/parfait.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.affinitasintimates.com/parfait.html</a> have created a whole line of really pretty bras for people my size. :D
