Tighty Whities

Someone I know confessed that she only wears white cotton panties and bras. Seems rather odd, but her rationalization had something to do with her strict and rather lazy practice of bleaching the hell outta every load of laundry. The emergency intervention began with the suggestion she dump the harsh chemicals in favor of natural non-chlorine bleach. Secondly she must invest in organic lingerie, something like this utilitarian soft cup bra and panty from Araks. Tiny ribbon bows decorate the straps of the 50s style bra, a shirred front on the low-rider bikini gives the ensemble a more modern edge. Baby steps. ($143)
