    What about if you wear black trousers & a white top, you have to wear odd underwear.

    Undies come in different colours these days ;). Not worn black bottoms and white top since I was a teenage waitress, but if I absolutely had to then I'd wear pale pink or flesh coloured matching undies ;)

    (alternatively I'd go commando ;))

    Well black bottoms & white top was just an example, I meant a dark bottoms & a light top.

    Still don't understand really :o If I wanted to wear matching undies and was wearing dark trousers and a light top (and if I didn't have any flesh-coloured sets) what would be stopping me wearing white knicks? :confused: In fact, almost all my knicks are white - and none of my dark trousers are see-through, unlike pale tops.

    I would still wear a flesh coloured matching set. Flesh colour shows much less through clothes than white.
  • Have to agree with this you cant really see a flesh coloured bra under a white top but you can see a white bra under a white top.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I like to match.....I buy two pairs of knickers for each bra. But with flesh coloured or sometimes white brs I quite like having different pants sometimes. I kind of thind of matching as being like a suit, which looks best matching, and a more relaxed weekend look of mismatching being like a well paired jeans and top (as opposed to denim top to toe which is not so good!). TBH, I suppose subconsciously, even though after six and half years DH knows I'm not braless when we are out, I suppose a lot is about how I'd think at the end of the evening. I'd not start a romantic evening with a flash of smoothline flesh coloured bra/pants...so I'd like to have nice knickers.
  • I wear allsorts, but I have Gossard, La Senza, Camille outlets near me

    Although I do manage to get wonderbras with matching knix from TJ HUghes (from £5 for a bra) and TK Maxx

    And then my absolute FAVE is PRimark fat belly knix - they are more effective than all others I have tried, more comfortable, seamless and £6 a pair as opposed to £20+ - they come in black, white and nude but regularly sell out - believe they do bodies in the same stuff as well - AND they get slung in the wash every week with socks and work trousers and are at least 4-5yrs oldm still effective and not bobbly or anything
