I have been visited by the Victoria's Secret fairy and need YOUR help.

[Rising Phoenix]

Due to an error an error they made on that order I showed you the other day, they refunded the shipping....close to 20 bucks, and gave me a gift card for an additional 20 bucks.
SWEET!

So I've been shopping around and have pretty much decided on two options.

option 1: practical, comfy, will cost me nothing, and very old RP, buying comfy baggy lounge wear.

flannel pj bottoms

option 2: Fun, only partially practical, but hell its free and it is something I could never have bought before my breast reduction as they didn't make cute stuff in my size.


I would get the bra, and after all the discounts, it would cost about 18 bucks
I would also get the garter belt.. That would be totally free and how fun!!!!
I find the ridiculous price of the thong unnecessary and wouldn't get that.

Pretty obvious which way I"m leaning I suppose
But lets see what DU thinks......

[HopeHoops]

1. Go for the fundies.

Don't forget to post pics after they arrive. :evilgrin:

[Rising Phoenix]

2. lol

I think the fundies ( cute play on words by the way) rock. And as for pics, maybe if I am having a "skinny feeling day" or I could photoshop like Ralph Lauren and start a flame war, that would be fun!

I love having normal sized boobies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HopeHoops]

4. Boobies? (perk)

(.)(.)

[Rising Phoenix]

6. yup, they look just like that now.

:rofl:

3. I'd go for the loungewear. That lacy stuff itches.

[Rising Phoenix]

5. I never had a problem with itchy lace from VS

but it is something to consider.

fundies : 1
loungewear: 1

[Odin2005]

7. Option one!

:)

[Rising Phoenix]

8. another vote for the comfy pants

may I ask the reason behind your choice?

[Odin2005]

9. Comfy clothes are better then itchy undies.

:)

[Rising Phoenix]

10. thank you for participating in the poll and survey

:hi:

[autorank]

11. I vote for pic #2

It's all around quality goods and leaves something to the imagination.

[Rising Phoenix]

13. thanks

I thought it looked kinda vintage. And I would never buy it, but since it would be free, I kind of felt like being frivolous. I can always get some comfy pj in the mens section at Marshall's for under 10 bucks. Plus I already have a plethora of sweats and stuff.

[Chan790]

12. I'm usually a big fan of option 1 on a woman...

but I really really really like Option 2.

That might be the nicest set of lingerie I've seen in years...the color is unique and the design is classic, but not cliche. I always go by the rule that "free" is reserved for fun: the stuff I'd never normally buy for myself because it's impractical or silly or lavish and thus unjustifiable. You sound like you really want #2, you're just seeking permission. I really don't think you need to ask for it...it's your gift to you. Go, get the fun-undies and enjoy being able to wear fun clothes again.

Make sure you have bottoms that match though. (Kinda joking...a great outfit deserves to be flawless when you're showing it off, but most men honestly don't really care if the lingerie matches.)

[Rising Phoenix]

14. I think that is exactly what I needed to hear.

I was thinking of getting the bra, the garter belt and pairing it with undies just a bit comfier

what do you think of a pair of these with it.


I thought it might funk it up a bit, or should I keep it all matching?

[Chan790]

15. Those work.

They're fun because they don't match exactly but they complement very well. The frills do add some funk.

[Rising Phoenix]

17. yay!

You and I have very similar tastes in sexy underwear! :pals:

bonus they are 3 for 30 and totally practical, maybe I'll even ask santa to put them in my stocking!

[quakerboy]

16. You ask a tough question

I instinctively Gravitate toward the first, but you obviously prefer the second.

If you have the money to do #2, and you would enjoy it, what the hell. Ive never bought either for anyone, but they look nice. If you are going to do it, keep the whole set together, though. The other poster is correct, its kinda a neat color, and its all meant to go together.

[Rising Phoenix]

18. thanks

you all have been very helpful


You know when I buy sexy lingerie, I buy it for me, I never bother to put it on before getting intimate with someone, sometimes I am already wearing it, but not with the intention of anyone seeing it. I just like how it makes me feel.

This is to kinda answer the question does anyone buy lingerie thread from last week

[quakerboy]

23. Its a very wierd type of thing

Ive never had any interaction with lingerie from any direction. I generally have an attitude of "if you enjoy something, more power to you, and screw what anyone else thinks" when it comes to appearance. Excepting hair. long hair should be mandatory for all members of the human species, excepting those who are bald/well into balding.

[Rising Phoenix]

24. It is funny

I am very much what you would call a tomboy......big baggy punky clothes. My hair is three colors, I am covered in tats, but underneath I often like to sear sexy ass underwear. I like the irony of my very being.

I like long hair, but it is not for everyone. If it is not done right it can weigh the face down, aging the person.

But well styled and highlighted if necessary I think it is great.

I had my natural straight black hair down to my butt my whole life, until I was in college and I chopped it off and went platinum. There was no going back for me, Two months in a row with the same hair and I go batty with boredom.

I am in the process of growing it long again though. I've missed all the long locks. I'm getting there.

[quakerboy]

29. I know it would not be popular with many

But if I ever achieve world domination, after I institute food for everyone, world peace, etc, I am going to mandate long hair for all.

I started the long hair in college. It was blue for a while, but it was just too much of a pain to keep it colored. It took years for the bleached bits to be gone, my hair grows slowish.

Anyway, not to hijack your thread for another purpose. If you like the sexy underwear, go with it. What the hell, you only live once, and the jokes only you know are often the best anyway.

19. If you've been through surgery, you deserve to have some fun.

No one else ma know what you're wearing, but they wil wonder why you're smiling that way!

:blush:

[Rising Phoenix]

20. exactly

I used to have to buy huge, ugly bras, and they still never fit right.

I don't have the body of a super model now, but I can wear a fun little outfit like that......I guess I would be crazy to not get it. :hi:

[rcrush]

21. I need more pictures to make a better decision please.

[Rising Phoenix]

22. more pics of what

do you need to see them again? silly

[seemunkee]

25. #2

If you don't have anything like 2, go for it. Comfy loungy pants can be had cheap at target or kohls,

[Rising Phoenix]

26. true that

[Iggo]

27. Yay! Woo-hoo! Yay!

Okay.

What were we talking about?

[surrealAmerican]

28. I agree with seemunkee on this one.

You can get comfortable lounge pants for a few bucks at the drugstore. Get the fancy stuff.

I do, however, have a personal distaste for writing across the butt, so maybe you shouldn't listen to me.

[NJmaverick]

30. Found money, so have fun with it

go for what you want

[SanddancerUSA]

31. No "leaning" happening here.

It's stright up and down for me.

"Pretty obvious which way I"m leaning I suppose"

[EndersDame]

32. I love garter belts and lingerie go for two very fun
