Do you buy matching bras and panties?

I don't think I've ever owned a matching set of panties and a bra. I mostly have white bras, and often will wear white cotton undies to "match" them, but that doesn't really count.
Lately, I've purchased some pastel coloured bras at Walmart... 2 in pink, one in baby blue, and the most recent one in mint green. It just so happens that I also bought some new underwear that came in a package of those very same colours! WOOHOO!!! That's about as close as I'll likely ever get to matching bras and panties. lol. I also purchased a lingerie outfit, where the top matches the thong... but that's another story. 
Do you buy matching bras and panties? Where do you shop for them? Do you mix and match? Will you purposely wear black undies if you put on a black bra? Do you care if your underwear matches? Does anyone else see it other than you?

I don't think I can remember the last time I had a set of bra and knickers that actually matched! I expect it was a gift, when I did.
I have a sister who enjoys shopping, so I'm often the lucky recipient of her cast offs. Lucky me, these often includ bras and we're pretty much the same size so I'm happy to accept.
As for knickers, well I'm afraid they're a bit of a passion for me. If I see nice knickers for sale, it takes a great effort of will not to buy myself yet another pair. Matching is low down my list of priorities. I prefer that they're bright, loud, glittery, fluffy ... you name it :-)
I put them all in a drawer, waiting for best!
I don't like white undies really, just because they turn grey so easily. I prefer things bright & jazzy.

I never wear a bra and my panties always match my sox.
Now, strip woman so I can see if you really are color co-ordinated! LOL

I wasn't colour co-ordinated today. And now that I'm in my pj's, everything under them is in flesh tone. So it definitely matches... however... it's blindingly white.

I don't show mine off regularly either. It's for me, not anyone else, that I do the matching colours of late.

I am a huge fan of matching undies....but only the sexy ones. I have a few sets but i don't wear them all the time. If it is just a normal day i just through on anything but if me and hubby are going out or i'm going out I try to put on matching ones....Makes me feel sexy!
Yeah matching lingerie is a completly seperate discussion!

I'm a one night wonder this week CanadaGal and have rushed over to linger at your lingerie. I have somewhat limited experience of matching bras and panties. I have only ever owned the one bra, black, conical, and I cannot say that it matched my panties. I have only one pair of black panties, or boxers as I prefer to call them. No not a breed of dog, but a sort of lightweight shorts. However, now you have put the idea into my mind I shall shop more assiduously in future.

I don't match them. I am trying to move away from the white cotton briefs of my youth and am now daring to have more color in my life. The bras are either beige or rose in color. I wear what I wear and do not care what others think.
I am more concerned usually with fit and comfort than the need to match underwear and bras.

Comfort and fit is the most important factor to me too. That's why I mostly have the white bras. lmao! It's only been very recently that I've found some nicer bras in my size that were in my budget... ergo the matching undies to them thing.

Not usually. I don't see the point. My partner is happy with whatever I wear, and is usually happier when I'm out of them and we're the only ones that see them anyway. So I don't bother.

I would love to own a matching pair, but becuase my bras cost me 70-80 nucks a pop I usually can afford the panties. Unless I really wanna splurge I never buy matching panties. My man never notices. But I only think it matters to me in a intimate situation .

Hey Canada Gal.
I can say that I've never had printed bras but do have printed undies. Now the colors of the bras are what I base the colors of the patterns of the undies. Did that make sense to you? Me neither.

I don't buy them purposefully to match as I buy underwear when it is in on offers and I have more knickers than bras. I have 3 sets that I could call "matching" though, one was bought purposefully to match, the other 2 just look as though they could be a matching set, but that is just a coincidence.

For now I don't. I only care about matching the colors. I've been thinking, if this would matter to my lover then I guess I will buy but if it will always be dark, I guess no need. I am pretty sure he won't mind. He'll take it off anyway...=)

Almost all of my panties and lingerie are either matching sets or mix and match seperates that were either purchased together as one outfit or purchased one piece to replace half of another set. I am a webcam/intenet model and actress though so people see me in my undies all the time. But I have always bought my underwear this way. Attached is a photo of me in my version of tighty whities!

I dont buy matching under wears. If I see a bra or pair of undies that I like I buy it. I mostly buy undies in packets, and I try to buy bras that are long lasting.
I have never had a matching set and it does not matter to me one way or the other.

I do like to wear a matching set of underwear. It doesn't matter if nobody knows about it. It just makes me feel good. And I do like to co-ordinate the colour with what I'm wearing if possible. I mean heck if I have a pink bra and am wearing a pink sweater that day then why not wear them together? After all if somebody happens to see my bra-strap then at least they will know I took the effort to match my undies that day.
