Sub-Wear (What I Wear)

Ok this one will be quick. I needed a piece before pants because I need some pants & jeans pictures. LoL You’ll find out later. I probably look like this under my clothes.

My basic underwear is bra, camisole/tank top and panties. Everything else is extra.

Bras: I only wear white, beige, & black bras. Nothing special about my bras.
Panties: Only wear white or black briefs, boyshorts, & thongs. When I was a little girl I wore all the colors & patterns that I could stand and made the "As soon as I get Grown" promise that I would not wear them. That is one promise I kept.
Camisoles & Tank Tops: They come is all the colors and patterns. I own them in all kinds of materials from cotton blends to lace. Like I said in the top blog, I wear them for modesty. People don't need to see my cleavage, big busted or not. Nor do they need to see my bra through some of my shirts. Sometimes a shirts is a little thin in quality so a cami or a tank give me extra protection.

Other Underwear Options I have other post about some of them check them out HERE & HERE

Girdle/ShapeWear: Some of you wear Spanx.Those are cute and trendy and I no use for them. I wear a Girdle [gur-dl].

 
The new trendy word is shapewear but it's still a girdle. Those are two forms the shorts and a body slip. Why do I wear one? So I don't jiggle in my clothes. This picture right here is HogWash to me!!! I don't want to jiggle

Slips: I'll say it again. If you wave your butt in front of me asking if I can see through your dress I tell you Need To or Should Have put on one of these.

I know your mother and grandmothers make you wear them and you made the "As soon as I get Grown" about wearing slips. But trust me slips Reduces that see through worry and keeps you dress from crawling up. Also it keeps you from asking smart mouth anything about what I think.

Stockings: I still wear them with my heels.

My feet sweat,my feet slide around and that makes my feet hurt. I think most people think of stockings they think of the Reinforced toe kind. or But they are many kinds. There are the sandal toe.

Still full coverage but not the ugly extra material. There are the toeless stockings. I like these because You can see my cute painted toes better in the summer. I also wear knee highs under pants. 

Wearing a full stocking is too hot under pants. Knee High are more comfortable.

So that is what this chick looks like under her clothes. Sorry, you had to use you imagination but this is the web. I don't have time to find out I'm on some nudey site because of my underwear blog post!!! Y'all didn't want to see that anyway.

What to Wear Under There?

What happened to wearing a slip and stockings? I feel many times I am one of the few ladies that still wears both, especially under the age of 50.

Most adults in America dress how they want to dress. I mean unless an adult is mentally challenged and can't make that decision or in an abusive relationship with restrictive rights most of us pick what we put on our bodies.

I really wish ladies would choose to wear slips again. Invariably, I get the question "Can you see through this" from some thin dress or unlined suit wearer. If the same person asks me that twice, I'll ask "Why don't you wear a slip". The excuses are the same "I get hot", "I've not worn slip since my mom made me", and my favorite "That's to many clothes to put on". I even had college pals that saw me in my slip and asked me why was wearing a teddy under my dress. They had never seen or worn a slip. The saddest part is it is becoming more and more difficult to find them In-stores, in-catalogs and online.

Also a few of the few stores that carry slips have the nerve to charge an outrageous price for them. I've seen a slip cost $45. That was nothing but the greedy devil doing that but with fewer ladies wearing slips I understand. *sigh*

Now stocking and pantyhose are not as a rarity as slips. Many still wear stockings. Beyonce wears them on stage. Broadway dancers wear them. Drag queens wear them to keep a good tuck tucked away. I can't put my foot in any dress shoe including my dress sandals with out a stocking, a knee high or a trouser sock. My feet sweat and slide up and down my shoes and get blisters with out them. I tried once at a childhood pal's wedding. I made sure I sprayed my foot spray on and had a fresh insole in my 2-1/2 inch sandal. One hour my feet were miserable in some shoes I wore in comfort with stocking. The straps kept sliding out. The insole was soaked by the end of the night. Never again have I done that again. And don't think others should too.

I see dance floors full of ladies who need on stockings. I wonder what do they think caused their blisters and corns. Why their feet hurts while doing the Zydeco Bounce? It's improper foot care & foot wear. A stocking would help some of that. They ever have the kind with the toe cut off so you can see your pedicure. No excuses!!!

Oh well, I'll continue to be a soldier in a army of the few that still wear slips and stockings. Maybe when the tides turn I'll be a General in that army. A general without my underwear showing and in dry shoe insoles. 8D Won't you join me?

As Always Talking to You in Adult Terms

A Cute Comfortable Fashion Blog

"You Must Suffer for Fashion" "Fashion is Pain" Why do people believe those things? People especially us Ladies, are literally putting our bodies in pain to wear the hottest shoes & clothes. Stilettos are stabbing the foot in heel and pinching the toes causing bunions. There are a brand of shape wear out that are worn so tight it literally shifts internal organs out of place. Garments that pinch the skin so hard that the blood vessels & capillaries burst.
Why?

I don't believe in wearing anything that causes pain. I can't do pain for my fashion. I dress as cute as my comfort level will allow. Jimmy Choo & Christian Louboutin are cute to look at but you can't put enough Dr. Scholls gel pads in to make them not hurt. And at those prices, they should come with built in relief. Now that I blogging Dr. Scholl should make a comfortable yet stylish shoe.

I'm not saying we should wear lounge wear 24/7. Nor should you let gut hang, stretch, or poke through.  I just don't think hurting the body to be fashionable is not smart. I refuse to Layer girdles on top of each other to even smoother in an outfit. One is enough. Plus I like for my blood to circulate. I will not to wear a shoe so high my blood pressure goes up. I won't wear panties that get caught in crevices, nooks & crannies and bacteria sets up.Yes, I wear flesh tone sandal-foot stockings with open toe shoes. My feet sweat and I don't do blisters. (I said sandal-foot & not reinforced toe There is a difference Learn it.) If my feet are tired but I'm going out, they are going into a lower wedge. If I'm grocery shopping I'm wearing classic fit jeans, not jeggings or skinny ones with cotton briefs.

Relax the body sometimes. Let's look Good but Healthy also.  Maybe Dr. Scholl should get in the High Heel game. I wonder if they tried and it was not up to their comfort standards. Umm interesting?
