Co-ordinated lingerie

Post by Kittie »

How many colour co-ordinate your lingerie? This morning I am wearing a black sloggi comfort bra, black M & S panties and black tights (panty-hose). I can't always do it!

It all depends on what I am wearing over it, it would never do to have a VPL that showed due to colour or to wear a dark bra under a light top or dress.

Just my take on the subject

I know some things.

Aswell as wearing same colours I love to wear contrasting colours espically white & pink e.g white camisole, pink panties.

I used to match in my younger years because I could. Now I go for what fits right and it happens, getting the right bra usually means not finding matching panties in a style I like. The reverse is also true -- I won't find a matching bra to my panties.

SSSSooooooo.... As Susan, said, it depends on the outfit and making sure the lingerie is not obvious. A dark top requires a dark bra; a light skirt requires an appropriately light panty.

As for the hose? They need to coordinate with the outfit and it doesn't matter what you have all under.

... and yet another vote for coordinating more with what you're wearing over than matching bra to panties. Any time I'm wearing separates it's important to keep light/dark continuity between layers. If I'm wearing a dress, though, then I like to have matching or well-coordinated bra/panty sets.

I match about 90% of the time. I love black or red for my lingerie 8)

It all depends what's going on and of course what's coming off!

My boyfriend likes me in fully fashioned seamed nylons and at least 6 strap suspenders. He bought me this amazing corselette which wasn't cheap but makes my figure look amazing! A matching thong underneath and I'm ready for anything (or everything!).
It costs a fortune to look this cheap!

Co-ordinate lingerie

Post by Joan »

I like to co-ordinate sometimes, probably about 30% of the time. Although I do not mind contrast I try to make sure that all my lingerie item look good together and do not obviously clash.

One awful habit, borders on OCD (Obsessive Compulsive behaviour Disorder). I tend to co-ordinate my lingerie when they are hung out to dry on the line, and pegs in a repeated pattern! Hmm maybeI am in need of therapy, or to just have wooden pegs.

Almost always. And the lingerie should coordinate to the outfit I'm wearing over it too, if possible. Because it all connects see, the tights have to match the skirt and shoes, and they are in contact with the panties. The panties have to match the bra, and the bra has to match the blouse and the earrings. It's not necessary to match exactly, but you couldn't wear, say, red panties and a teal bra. That is just SICK :roll:
