What is it going to take to get The Real Housewives of Riyadh into production?

OK so I was at a sample sale today and this girl next to me was wearing black high heeled boots, thigh high sheer black stockings, sexy thong underwear and matching bra. I felt wicked bad next to her with my Warner's bra from Daffy's and my 'wiggly worm' brand underwear from the closeout store (5 for 6 bucks). Guess who was a brunette and who was a bleached blonde ? And guess who has a double digit dress size? Yeah that wasn't a challenge. Seriously this girl dressed sexier for a day at the office than I've dressed in my life. It was quite something.

My husband bought me lingerie right before I got pregnant. It was beautiful - 100% silk, tasteful, from an exclusive boutique - BUT as Sadie mentioned, the fit was all wrong! (the racer-back cut of the underwear barely covered my big ol booty and the bra was too small around my rib cage) So even though the boy ticked all the right boxes, it was still a bust (har har).

Oh and I just found out the boutique invited him to a mens-only holiday preview night featuring lingerie moddles, a burlesque show, and free booze. I'm thinking about writing them an email and pointing out that this advertising angle might not be effective once the wives and girlfriends hear about it... Or suggest that they should invite the WAGs too!!

That is slightly icky, but as I am sympathetic to cross-dressers...and poor....hmmm.

Um, I like thongs. That's what I wear. Other stuff just rides up. The boyfriend has no interest in lingerie so anything I buy is just for me. Needless to say, he doesn't buy me any.

I'm seeing a lot of distaste for thongs. I suppose they aren't really practical for FEELING sexy, as they are shoved halfway up the arse, but I wear them for a very practical reason; no VPL. Isn't that what they're for?

"Because the thing about lingerie gifts is, even if they kind of suck, most of us will wear them just to be good sports. Like faking orgasms, this kind of white lying runs the risk of fooling a guy into thinking he's done an awesome job..."

bwahahahaha

i really really enjoyed this line.

Also, i try not to be a picky bish about this, being as most of mine ends up torn or lost in some alley way that evening...

@ForgetfulBitch [who needs love when theres SoCo]: What's the deal with that anyway? Surely this stuff should be designed better. Perhaps Kevlar fishnets are a worthy invention?

Honestly, I want my guy to buy me something he wants to see me in. 99% of my lingerie was picked out by me. It's sort of a kick to see what he might come up with! We like to have fun and get a little kinky, so I really don't see what's the trouble with red/black lace, thongs, teddies and whatnot. As long as there is no garter-stocking combo that makes my thighs look like jumbo franks, I'm cool with it.

I was in a relationship with a girl who wanted to wear lingerie for me (because she thought she should?), but didn't know what to buy.

She asked, "What about this one? Should I buy it? Or this one?"

I responded, "You don't need to wear lingerie you know...isn't this silly?"

Her: "But I want to!"

Me: "Why?"

Her: "Don't you think I'm sexy?"

Me: "Uh...of course. But you don't need to buy lingerie and even if you WANT to, I'd rather you pick something that you feel sexy in. I don't feel comfortable suggesting what I'd like to see you in."

Her: "You're a bad boyfriend."

Me: "I am not. Besides, you know I like PVC, not lace."

Reason #1082 I'm happy I'm not there anymore.

I used to love the panties from The Express. I hate thongs, but even their thongs were comfortable. I wish that line would come back.

I buy my own lingerie, tyvm. Mr.B can't care less about lingerie, prefers me wearing boy shorts, and won't set foot in a shopping mall.

I buy lingerie so I can prance around the apartment feeling pretty and then he can take it off.

My boyfriend and I have gone and picked something out together, but in all honesty, both of us could care less. You're going to get naked anyway...

I wear cotton from Gap Body. I once bought this really pretty, EXPENSIVE, pink and red set of a bra and panties from VS, and wore it on Valentine's Day. The boyf thought it was nice. They've been sitting in my underwear drawer since 2005.
Boyshorts look hideous on some women, btw. I would not want any dude to see my muffin top handing over and my thighs trying to escape. Ew ew ew.
