If you know me in real life, and especially if you're related to me, I don't want to hear any complaints about this post. It's for the girls. So here we go.
I hate wearing underwear. Panties. Whatever you want to call your bloomers. Now I've had sensory issues with pants and underwear my entire life. I can quote my younger self here, "I hate school. I hate going to school because they make me wear pants". Go little Taila, you were right. Society shouldn't expect us to conform to pants. Anyway, underwear. I don't know exactly when, but at some point I just quit wearing them. I always keep some in the closest just in case (boyshorts or thongs only), but thanks to some fantastic birth control they really weren't a necessity in my life. But I am a connoisseur, what grown woman doesn't want some comfortable but cute (you can read sexy) sets in their arsenal. If you are a regular panty wearer (especially a plus size one) you know how incredibly difficult that can be. Things roll, fall down, squeeze, or god forbid the terrible wedgie. Let's talk about some of the brands I own.
Torrid: A polarizing company indeed, I discovered them in 2017, having shopped at Cato's primarily. At the time I was blown away, they had everything, and much more modern styles. This began a renaissance in my style, I wore dresses and skirts more, I explored non floral clothes, and I found cute underwear for the first time. As time went on, I started to realize as much as I do like some of their clothes, they're overpriced, and not exactly my style most of the time. Unfortunately, their underwear still had all the same problems that places like Lane Bryant, Walmart, etc have. They just don't fit all fat bodies correctly. I've got a big ol' ass, it gets in the way folks.
AdoreMe: I think I ordered from them for the first time in 2018, I bought a nice purple bodysuit. It was comfortable and pretty good quality. I didn't buy from them again until very recently, I bought some lingerie, and a very nice matching bra and panty set. I love the bra, which is quite surprising because when I say I don't tend to wear underwear bras are included. I didn't hate the panties, but they rolled so badly I could barely manage to keep them up. This is not to say that I don't love this company, in fact I think I'll definitely be purchasing more from them in the future.
Now for the real reason behind this post. The best underwear I have ever owned. Allow me to introduce you: https://www.target.com/p/women-s-seamless-high-waisted-rise-thong-auden/-/A-87419991#lnk=sametab
You know I'm not going to gatekeep the good stuff. These are absolutely amazing, I can barely tell I'm wearing them, no wedgies, no rolling, just perfect. I am not a big Target shopper, while I love the store, it's a bit of a trap for my manic shopping. However, you will see me giving them my patronage more often, especially in their underwear and clothing. When I purchased the thong above (only 7$!!!!), I also got a pair of shorts (legging shorts, short leggings, I don't know they're legging material). They're very comfortable and at a whooping 12$ I will be purchasing more. I won't say all of Target's clothes are my style. I'm comfy chic girly. A little punk or pastel goth at times, but my only real requirement for my clothes is that they must be comfortable. I am not a fashionista, but if you're looking for an affordable, comfortable pair of underwear, check your local Target. If you want to hear more about my experience as a fat woman wearing clothes, let me know, I have thoughts.
