Knickers

Hi All

I used to wear thongs before I had children then I got out of the habit. I find myself searching year on year for knickers that don't have VPL but also stay in place. I find boy shorts roll up and anything that goes high on the wait rolls down my stomach! I am a size 12-14 and already buy a size up for knickers. I find VPL style has flat seams that don't stay in place. I can't stand seeing VPL on me but really don't find Thongs very comfy anymore. Please hit me with your favourites - ones that stay in place & no VPL. Much appreciated. I am wearing jeggings most of the time these days. I don't know how much £ I have spent on the hunt for this over so many years.

Another vote for Sainsbury’s. After 40+ years of M&S bikini knickers I have discovered Sainsbury’s midi knickers. They’re perfect. Comfy, no VPL and cheap. I stock up in the sale which makes them practically free!

it depends on your shape as to what style works best. Ive got quite curvy hips, in that my waist is more defined which means that my bum ends up eating my knickers really quickly and I also have the same issue with the no vpl styles.
Ive had success with sloggi double comfort shorts, although theyre practical rather than pretty, but surprisingly after thinking high legs never worked for me, I have some high legs microfibre knickers from M&s which feel barely there AND stay in place

full briefs are very comfy and stay in place, but they might give you VPL if thats something that bothers you (im over it, I dont care anymore)

Victoria's Secret are fab, comfy and also come in various colours. Ten Cate look like granny knickers!
