Sometimes people have the misconception that what you are actually wearing to an event is the most important. Although that may have some truth to it, I have been to hundreds of weddings, birthday celebrations, cocktail parties, and more – and I can assure you that what you are actually wearing underneath your outfit is the most essential! Finding the right undergarment can be somewhat of a challenge so Kohls provided me with some underwear to try out in order to help you find The Perfect Pair.
Finding the right undergarment whether it be underwear, shape wear, leg wear, etc. is definitely something that pertains to each individual person. I personally am not the biggest fan of shape wear, but I do believe in finding the right pair of underwear for each occasion. Without question, your underwear choice can ultimately make or break your outfit. Whatever fabric or style you are wearing, you have to feel your absolute best and most comfortable.
You may be surprised to find this out but Kohls has such a wide variety of options to choose from! I know I was shocked when I first took a look at their selection but I was completely blown away. Whatever style you are looking for, price point, brand, color, shape or size – they have the right pair for you. The best part… Kohls semi annual sale is from August 5th to August 21st! You can get $10 off your $40 intimates purchase using the promo code INTIMATES10.
When styling and preparing for an upcoming elegant affair, underwear is a critical choice. I tend to gravitate towards a smooth thong as it does not show at all under a dress. There is nothing worse than your underwear bunching under a black tie gown! When I first came across Juniors’ SO Smooth Thong from Kohls I was so excited…. the price point is much less than any competitor and they are exactly what any girl needs to own whether she is wearing a gown, cocktail dress, white jeans, etc. Best part, they are so comfortable and they don’t hug your hips at all. Fit wise – they are just right and fit true to size. Feel, I mean…. they are the smoothest and thinnest pair of underwear you have probably ever touched.
My tip when choosing The Perfect Pair would be comfort is of the utmost priority! I personally don’t want to feel like I am wearing underwear, even though I am definitely wearing it. I know I hate when underwear clips my hips and sometimes I find lace can be itchy and uncomfortable. Seeing that I have so many requirements, I truly cannot begin to express how Kohls did not disappoint! The Juniors SO Smooth thong and the Cosabella Amore Adore Sheer Lace Thong Panty were definitely my go-to choices. One more little tip— over time, lace thongs need to be thrown out! The lace definitely does not stand the test of time after multiple washes in the machine, and there really is nothing like putting on a fresh clean pair of underwear. The Cosabella Amore Adore Sheer Lace Thong has the perfect amount of stretch and the lace has been able to withstand multiple washes.
Being that underwear plays such a key role in styling for a wedding, my yellow cocktail dress was an obvious choice for this post. I fell in love with the drop waist and acid lime color. I actually ordered it online and hoped for the best. When I received this dress in the mail I knew underwear was going to play a huge role. Although it seems like it fits pretty loose and wouldn’t necessarily require a certain pair of underwear, it does! The way the drop waist and seam falls, a smooth, neutral thong is essential. I finished it all off with a fun shoe in a pop of color, beaded clutch and some gold jewelry. Officially wedding ready with The Perfect Pair!
