Types Of Underwear – Bikini, Thong, G String, Boyshorts

By A Mystery Man Writer

Get the skinny on your skivvies, right this way.
Starting with G-strings and making our way to high waists, we've put together a list of six different types of underwear every woman should own.
Bikinis

With the advent of “cheekies” and “cheekinis,” Vosper concedes that, today, “the term ‘bikini’ is pretty vague and can mean a lot of things.” If you’re equally confused, think of the style as a middle ground between thongs and briefs. “Typically slim on the sides, and with just enough on the behind to offer some coverage, a bikini is not only very sexy, but another great option for a less visible finish,” Jenkins adds. “The skivvy has a low-slung, cool vibe that’s perfect when layered under denim.”
Boyshorts

As far as underwear goes, boyshorts are one of the more modest options. Modelled after men’s briefs, “they perfectly frame the derriere, with full sides and front, but a thong-style base,” Jenkins says. Not only are they usually mega comfortable, depending on the fabric and fit, boyshorts can usually serve the same function as thongs under clothing. The covered-up silhouette can often be worn with form-fitting clothes without any dreaded VPL. “They work especially well layered beneath short, fluttery skirts on windy days when you don’t want to moon the world with your Marilyn moment, too,” Vosper quips.

Maybe you’re into thicker fabrics for this shape, and choose to wear them as loungewear and pyjamas — that’s cool, too. To each her own.
