Although my name suggests otherwise I am far from tiny. Been a bit disappointed with M&S of late. Where do you buy your smalls? And not so smalls? grin

Sloggis maxis, M&S bras and some matching pants, also 3 comfy Royce front fastening bras.

I don't mind if I do, thanks! smile

Panties?

The curse of the sainsbury's bra.
You find just one that you really like, in a rail of 400, and buy it. then they quickly empty the shelves completely and you never see your chosen one again!

I used to swear by M&S bras, underwired. Rarely found one that fitted properly even so! Then my DD told me about a Sainsbury's one which was like a padded bralette and not underwired. It was £10 and fits beautifully. I hardly know I'm wearing it and it gives me a great shape. Pants have to be M&S shapewear but cotton with elastane. Otherwise it's Sloggi. Open to other recommendations!

Aha!
That might explain M0nicas knickers.

I buy Schiesser. It's a German company & they do 100 per cent cotton panties.

What an unfortunate name -I just hope people pronounce it correctly blush

MissAdventure Wed 22-Dec-21 20:37:57

I don't mean to be rude at all, but I don't think I could say the word panties without something happening.
A giggle.
An uncomfortable silence.

I do realise that says much about me, rather than anyone else.

Bras from John Lewis and pants from Tesco. We've got a bamboo shop just opened recently here and I've now got some pants made of bamboo too. Very comfy smile

My most recent underwear purchase came from Debenhams.

vegansrock Wed 22-Dec-21 18:21:49

For everyday the camisole bras from Primark brilliant for us skinny types, just pull over the head, 3 for about £12. For going out occasions ( not many of them recently) Figleaves sell some good brands. I like Aubade.

Not frilly, just pretty. Cant be doing with lace and the like.

MissAdventure Wed 22-Dec-21 16:21:02

There now, I deliberately didn't read your reply properly, and I already knew you liked 'em frilly and pretty!
I must be going psychic in my old age.. shock

M0nica Wed 22-Dec-21 16:11:42

MissAdventure nothing changes!
Ah, I was responding as Fairfraise was reporting. heigh ho!

moggiek Wed 22-Dec-21 16:05:28

Bras from Triumph, pants from TU.

MissAdventure Wed 22-Dec-21 16:05:12

Now that's strange....
I'm sure I remember reading about M0nica's underwear a long time before today.
blush
Perhaps she's mentioned her unmentionables before....

GagaJo Wed 22-Dec-21 16:03:55

M&S, although have also got knickers from Tesco/Asda/Sainsbury in the past. My bras are all M&S although they discontinued the line about 2 years ago. Fortunately, I had a LOT but they are starting to wear out. Not sure what I'll do when they've all had it.

MissAdventure Wed 22-Dec-21 16:02:38

It'll be 'Rent-a-tent' for me, soon.
