I’m not a thong girl. The invention of the “boy short” was really a blessed excuse to continue wearing a grandma pant. As a teacher by day and yogi by night, I believed that thongs had little business in my life. But the increasingly lower cut denim coupled with VPL fears, has forced me to make a few investments. Plus, even a plain ol’ gal like myself can feel a little sexier in scantily clad undies.
Recently, two girlfriends, on two separate occasions, mentioned the hanky panky. one size fits all? Is that even possible? $18.00 per pair? Is that even reconcilable on a teacher’s salary? These, of course, are rhetorical questions, because there i was, front and center, in bloomingdale’s lingerie department, lining up to make the purchase.
I must confess that I like them. I do. They’re comfy, they show no lines and i do feel nice in them. still, they are a bit pricey. For a cheaper, and equally good version, hit GapBody. They don’t wash quite as well, but in all other ways are a wonderful substitute. Make sure to get the ultra low rise lace thong, not the cotton and lace ultra low rise thong- which are kind of thick in the crotch area and not half as much fun.
I, too, was inspired to drop 18 hard-earned bones on a peach little number. Cute, indeed, but I am loathe to admit that they may not fit the bootie as well as good old Vicky’s low-rise version (and who can beat 5 for $25?)
RIT: you INSPIRE me. I love the LPL and will be passing it on to ALL 🙂
