Is Now The Time to Update Your Panty Drawer?
I’ve blogged so many times about great shapewear and bra options lately, but there’s one item that I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned. In all of the years I’ve been blogging, can you believe that I haven’t included one single post on panties? No worry. Today we’re answering the question, “Is now the time to update your panty drawer?” Spoiler alert – it is!
Raise your hand if it’s been a minute since you bought new panties. Did you know that if you’ve had your panties for 6 – 12 months, experts say to toss them? I think I have some pairs that remember pay phones, lol.
Is Now The Time to Update Your Panty Drawer? Boyshorts
Are you a fan of boyshorts? I think they are soooo comfortable! I love, love, love seamless and soft nylon underwear. This is a very affordable package of 5 for just $20 dollars. These have over 15,000 reviews and a star rating of 4.5 stars!
If you’re looking for something with a little more WOW, these lacy boyshorts from Soma are a great choice. They are only $10 dollars and come in lots of fun prints. I love Soma and have always been happy with their products.
Speaking of WOW, these lacy black panties are gorgeous. Gurls, please, for the love of everything, throw out any worn-out, ill-fitting drawers and replace them with something pretty. Even if you’re the only one who sees them, you’ll know and feel so much better about yourself.
Is Now The Time to Update Your Panty Drawer? Hipsters & Bikini
Don’t love boy shorts? The hipster cotton briefs may be more your style. They are cotton and spandex and hit at a nice spot just below the belly button. These come 5 to a pack and are just $17 dollars.
This brand, Kindly Yours, is found at Walmart, but I had never heard of them until recently. Don’t judge me, but I bought a pack at a bin store, lol. They were unopened, of course! Gurls, these are SO comfortable and stretchy. At just $10 for a pack of three, they are also budget-friendly.
I can’t wait to hear about your favorite style of underwear in the comments, ha! If you’re a basic bikini girl – give me cotton Hanes and call it a day girl – these are for you! You can’t go wrong with Hanes, and these are very affordable at just $13 dollars for a pack of 6. At that price, there’s no reason not to update your underwear drawer.
Here’s another nice pair from Soma. I love the name of this color – Hush. Can you imagine calling a store and asking, “Do you have any hush sweaters?” Or “Do these sandals come in hush?” These provide nice coverage, and if you don’t love hush, they come in numerous other colors. Also $10 dollars.
Is Now The Time to Update Your Panty Drawer? Leakproof Edition
*Some period underwear has been controversial. I’ve worn them for years and haven’t had any issues, but you should do your own research.
Leakage? It’s a thing. But it’s not the end of the world! Panty makers have created options for women who need a bit of protection. Knix makes a large variety of leakproof options. How leakproof? These have a built-in pad that absorbs up to 10 tampons worth of liquid. The boxer briefs pictured are orchid, but there are several colors.
Soma has a nice version! These look very nice in black, but they also come in sand. The details say that these have a built-in pad that absorbs up to 5 tampons worth of liquid. Reviews say that they are very comfortable and get the job done. Soma offers these for $43 dollars.
Here’s another Knix option in a bikini style. The inner gusset is very long from front to back, and the pad holds the equivalent of 8 tampons worth of liquid. They are made from a buttery-soft cotton & modal blend and just $38 dollars.
Okay, Gurls. What did you think of my first panty post?! Let me know if you’ve found something you like!

I would like to try Knix but they don’t offer a now show panty that can’t be seen under leggings during workouts or under jeans. I could use the light leakage protection they offer.
Even thought it doesn’t say that it is no show, they don’t show.
I burst out laughing at your payphone comment!! Thank you for the best laugh of the day!!!
Thank you for this article! I’m realizing that I need to expand and replace my top drawer collection. I’m a SOMA panty fan too – high leg briefs FTW.
However, it’s time to try boy shorts from a high quality line.
I’m loving my Knix. I’m 72 and afraid of leaking a little if I sneeze or laugh uncontrollably!
I love Soma panties. However….the boy shorts are a big NO for me. The legs ride up and sometimes roll. Look at the photos, they are much shorter than other boy shorts. It seems they fit a very lean body type best. I’m 5’8 and 148 lbs. for reference.
I’m definitely a Hanes girl but I’m looking for something that is comfortable and will flatten my belly with dress pants. Any suggestions?
Hanes has a tummy control panty. Here is a link for a 4-pk. https://bit.ly/3sVYJkN
Thank you!
Very good post, thanks! I have panties that are so old they remember dial phones, LOL I guess a clear out is in order!
Lol!!! You have some work to do, Diane!
