Do you make sure you're wearing a matching set of underwear?

I had an officemate before who blatantly told everyone that she always makes sure she is wearing a matching pair of underwear (bras and panties). If it doesnt come in sets, she'd make sure the color is a match. When we asked why that's a big deal to her, she shrugged and said, in case she'd catch an accident and her dress wears off, she'd still look great with her matching underwears. As for me, I'd still go for pieces of clothing that are of the same color family, that includes underwear. So, it doesn't have to be a matching pair, but at least not totally contrast each other in color and style. Do you guys bother about that, too?

Really? Do people really worry about that? Honestly, it doesn't even cross my mind in the morning if my underwear match my outer clothes or bra. I think some people may have too much time on their hands. The only time I think about that kind of thing is if my husband and I have a romantic night or weekend planned. But otherwise I really don't think about it. If I get in a serious accident, the last thing on my mind is gonna be "Oh, I really hope I matched my under garments today". lol.

Planning a romantic night with husband, is also the best time for me to be most particular about what Im wearing underneath.

Nope, I could care less if it matches or not. So long as I have a pair of undies and a bra I'm good! Happy mylotting!

I don't even bother anymore, as someone said can never find sizes anyway. as long as I am wearing bra and undies I am good to go. So accident or not, I am well covered anyway, not like the paramedics will be thinking about the colours I wore if they have to tear it all off to save my life

No, I am not in the certain age where i need to do that yet. Maybe in a few years time..I haven't even bought new underwear- it's awkward for me.. I usually have light colored underwear and they are close in color anyway.

I don't think I even own a truly matching set of panties with a bra. I guess to me it doesn't really matter since nobody sees them anyway. However, I do stick with color families of white, black, and beige so I have a color to go with my clothing.

I do, sometimes. I'm a bit of an OCD - everything that matches is pair together and placed nicely in the drawer. Whenever I buy them in singles, I make sure they are almost the same in colour and pattern, but I would arrange them separately. I think it's a lot easier for me, as I do not have a 9 - 5 job, so time is not a factor for me when I get ready. In addition, I just like my stuff to match, inside, outside etc.

Good for you. I guess its fun to do this, if you have the luxury of time and resources, of course. Nothing to lose, everything to gain.

As much as possible I want it to be matching pair but if the bra's matching panties are not yet available then I can always wear something from the same color family. I am like you too, s long as it doesn't look to contrast to each other, I'm okay with it. It doesn't have to be really match, but it must look nice even if it's not a match.

I often buy a set of bra and panty. However, i don't picky to wear it follow a set. I just choose a bra and a panty randomly. Sometime it is match, but sometime may not. I really don't care about it.

I don't do things like that its a bit silly and takes a bit of time. I just put on what ever bra and panties I want I don't care if they the same color or design. No one is going to see them besides me and probably my husband and even though he really doesn't care what color they are not. Some times for the fun it I'll ask him what color am I wearing because he is purple color blind so its funny to see what he thinks I'm really wearing.

I sometimes try to match them and other times I don't as much, most of my matching depends on the outside instead of the underside of what I wear though. I don't mind wearing a pink top and a blue bottom half in other words, if they're both solid colors. I mostly have solid colored undies in both top and bottom anyways, unless it's the good stuff that I only save for special occasions.

The thought has never occurred to me in my entire life (and I'm 52 years old) to bother with matching my bra and panties. Sometimes they do match but it is not a conscious effort on my part. As long as they're clean everyday, who really cares?
