Only One Day Left To Win A Bouquet Of Hanky Panky Thongs Worth $130

hanky panky bouquet

Forget expensive roses, there’s nothing like a bouquet of underwear – if they’re soft, sexy Hanky Panky thongs, that is. Since your boyfriend would never be this thoughtful (or creative for that matter), we’ve teamed up with Bare Necessities to give away six pairs of low rise Hanky Panky undies (arranged in bouquet form). These panties are the greatest, but if you’re already covered on the undergarment front, this cute set is the perfect gift for a stylish friend.

It’s all a part of this week’s Freebie Friday, but you only have one day left to enter, so get going, this is a prize we wouldn’t want you to miss out on.

While you wait and see if you’re the winner, shop for the rest of your intimates needs. We’ve got comprehensive guides to the best in more thongs, sexy underwear, and strapless bras.

Freebie Friday: Win A Hanky Panky Thong Bouquet Worth $130 From Bare Necessities

bare-necessities-logo

What: A bouquet of six low-rise Hanky Panky thongs in assorted pinks, available exclusively at Bare Necessities.

bare necessities hanky panky thongs

Why: Because Hanky Panky thongs are among the absolute best underwear we’ve ever worn; the soft stretchy lace lays flat and doesn’t pinch anywhere, and they’re impossibly comfortable.

Plus, this pretty set is perfect for gift-giving – if you don’t love Hanky Pankys yourself (which we find nearly unfathomable), you most likely know someone who’s obsessed.

(Even if you don’t win – or just want your Hanky Panky fix now – you can always buy them here.)

Forget The Macy’s Thanksgiving Balloons – Giant Bras Are Our New Favorite Oversized Item

Just for fun, we wanted to bring you a photo of new work from two Japanese artists/designers, Yoshikazu Yamagata and Kentaro Tamai.  The sculptures are titled “A Long Story” and consist, more or less, of an enormous bra/undies set hanging from a random tree:

a long storyyamagata and tamai - a long story


The designers’ experimental merger of fashion and art, called writtenafterwards, is a medium through which they approach fashion as “a communication tool.”  In the case of the giant underwear, what do you think they’re trying to communicate?  Leave any thoughts in the comments.

(And if you’re simply looking for underwear that communicates wearability, check out our guides to the best bras, underwear, and shapewear.)

Deal Of The Day: Save Up To 70% On Luxurious Skivvies From theOutnet

We love a good deal on underwear, and this often leads us to those three-packs of cotton briefs.  However, every now and then we like to take things up a notch…but that doesn’t mean we believe you have to kick up the prices, too.

dotted-undies

These silk boy shorts trimmed in black satin are the epitome of demure-chic ($18 from $60.)

silk-balconet-bra

I adore this sophisticated silk bra from Elle Macpherson, because it’s lovely rather than vampy ($26 from $85.)

sheer-bra

A floral-print bra, when it’s cut low and sheer like this one from Stella McCartney, balances edge with sweet detail ($75 from $150.)

Buy Him Push-Up Undies, And He’ll Always Be Happy To See You

What:
Roland Lodoli’s Push-Up Underpants

Why: We females already know the appeal of using a little architecture to keep ourselves looking our absolute best. Now a Croatian designer is giving men the same opportunity. Lodoli’s Wonderbra-inspired creation contains a small pocket inside that is designed to lift a man’s “goods” in order to make them look more impressive.

My first instinct is that this is super weird. However, since a good push-up bra can provide a healthy dose of confidence for us, shouldn’t men be entitled to the same thing? Would you be okay with your man wearing these? I’m mostly just upset that Lodoli didn’t give his product the most obvious, awesome name ever: WonderPants.

Right now these babies are not sold online, so unless your honey has
recently traveled to Croatia there isn’t much chance of this coming up (pun intended)
in real life, at least for now.

Got Bumps? Savvy Shapewear To The Rescue

Wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where that skin-tight Prada dress looked absolutely perfect the minute you slipped it on? Or the waistband of those Acne skinny jeans caressed your stomach ever so gently without the slightest pinch? Yeah right. Unfortunately, the real world is full of fashion that pinches, pulls, and mocks even the slenderest of bodies. Which is why God created shapewear! Amen! Thanks to cellulite-sucking spandex and gravity-defying underwire, we are free to try out a variety of styles, all the while knowing our bodies will look their tightest and most fabulous. So here are our top 5 picks for the most effective shapewear that's sure to show that Prada who's boss.

1. The Spanx Bra-llelujah! Front-Close Underwire Bra ($62) achieves the ultimate feat of boob coverage – it gives support while providing optimum comfort and a flattering shape. Thanks again, Spanx.

2. To get full bra support, tame your midriff, and eliminate back bulge, try the Unbelievabra ($75), which has the appearance of a cami, but is capable of so much more.

3. For a strapless option, try the Sassybax Strapless Torso Trim ($75) under evening dresses and sexy halters.

 


4. A must-have for any pants ensemble, the Spanx Tight End Footless Tights Panty Hose ($26) smooth unwanted lines in the hip, thigh, and butt.

5. It might be hard to believe that amid all of this reducing shapewear, there's actually a product to add to your voluptuousness. Bubblebuns offers padded underwear ($34) that will give you some oomph where you have none.
