I need help! I have only just acknowledged that I am still wearing my massive greying leass than flattering black pants that were bought for those initial post-partum days from Primark and don't seem to have found their way to the bin yet--.

I need to smarten up my underwear drawer but am on a budget (mat leave) and do find the fuller cut of aforementioned smalls quite comfy if unattractive. I want some fairly plain pairs as I'm still in feeding bras and don't want to have to buy sets.

Pre DDs I used to wear the shorty type things but in a few sizes bigger than my dress size so that they properly covered my bum.

Any tips for comfortable yet attractive knickers that won't break the bank?

I have a couple of packs of these they are super comfy, but rather pretty too.

Otherwise most of my pants are Freya, but only what I can hunt out super cheap in sales.

Those m&s ones look great - how do they measure up sizewise? Will Google the freya suggestion when not on my phone.

Matalan have the most amazing pants ever, the most comfy pants in the world, they are microfibre type material, flattering, not mumsy, colour doesn't fade, just brill. unless you are prone to thrush then you need cotton pants

I quite like the Gap ones: www.gap.eu/browse/product.do?cid=60770&vid=1&pid=748415

Better than M&S IME.

Have just returned from US with Victoria's Secret ones, they is Da Bomb (as I understand they say in the US)

M&S Brazilian knickers are the best and comfiest I've ever had and they are reduced to £2 in the sale Shock

Personally I find the M&S brazilian pant the most uncomfortable thing I have ever worn, but I know lots on here like them. Gap pants are good especially the shorts, I forgot about them.

I buy M&S in a 14 (am a 12) I hate tight pants.

Leia are good for Freya bargains.
