Recently surfing the net, looking up new styles on lingerie, business as usual when I come across a story that goes like this:

Singer GWEN STEFANI’s upbringing was so strict, her parents even dictated her shade of underwear until she was 18.

The 33-year-old NO DOUBT beauty, admits her parents PATTI and DENNIS STEFANI raised their daughter under very rigid Catholic rules – underwear color included.

She says, “My parents were very strict. I had to wear white underwear until I finished high school.

“But they weren’t mean-strict. They were human, loving, and gave me morals, and I feel I’m very stable because of it.”

I found this very interesting because I was gathering information to talk about the next color you can get in satin panties.  The most popular, and this should not be a surprise, color of them all.  White panties.  They are by far the most famous.

And everyone looks good in them although I have to admit that Brazilian super model Gisele Bundchen probably wears them the best.  Oh well, she was voted “model of the millennium” by Vogue and was highest-paid model in 2008 and one can definitely see why.

Anyway one has to wonder what are so alluring about white satin panties.  Why are they the most popular?  Well if you remember from a previous article about colors white means innocent, virginal, and pure.  Now I know that we live in 2009 and every woman is supposed to have thrown those titles away along time ago.

The black panty personality is the norm.  Its the standard that every woman want to be.  But in the real world, away from what television says, every woman wants the white panties personality.  That’s what we are taught from an early ago.

Gwen Stefani was made to wear white panties by her parents because quite frankly the color white has always represented a sense of purity. Still does and will for a long time.

The black and the white and pink are all great colors but white will always be the standard.  Why do you think you get married with that color.

I have heard many woman contemplate about changing it up and wearing a different color for their wedding dress but at the end of the day this color is just embedded into our minds as the color for your proper woman.  Any other color would be thought of as deviant behavior.  Don’t believe so…try wearing a black dress and see what people think.

Another thing about white is that because its the lightest color you can get it generally looks fantastic on your body because it does not contrast as much.  Now this does not apply to woman with dark skin.

If you are a black or Indian woman then its the opposite as black panties will blend better with your skin tone.

The reason why I bring this up is because when there is a huge contrast with your underwear vs your skin tone certain features are accentuated.  If you have large thighs and you are wearing red panties then they will be highlighted more.  If you have a large rear and you have on underwear that contrasts a lot then its brought out more.  So for a lot of woman white panties blends in great.

White panties look their best in the high cut which really brings out a woman’s thighs and legs.  There is rarely anything that looks sexier.  Satin panties in this color will give you the look you want and that smooth feel you desire.

Okay so you are convinced that you want a pair of satin panties and you want that color to be white now you have to size it.  This is the key.  I have seen this time and time again.  You see a woman in Victoria’s Secret with something on, it looks really great, you buy it, and it doesn’t look anywhere near the long-legged models you saw on the magazine.  Just because you see something that looks awesome on Giselle, doesn’t mean it will look as awesome on you.  Shop for what’s works for your own body type. Don’t listen to television commercials that advocate “comfort,” which is just a synonym for “unsexy.” If you look hard enough, you’ll be able to find something both comfortable and hot. Jockey is not sexy.

Size your panties correctly.  That is the number one rule.  Too small.  You will have a “muffin top” or “camel toe”.  Too big.  That extra fabric is going to make you look like you are wearing a baby’s diaper, and yes people do recognize.  Don’t get one size knowing you are another.

Every brand sizes their undies differently so you have to be familiar with the brands you like.  You may know you are one size.  But for a certain brand you may have to get your panties in a size higher.  Do it!  Please do not be stubborn and get your underwear in “your size” because you cannot accept that for this particular brand they make them short.

Here is a list of the different types of panties you can get:

A bikini brief is a panty that is cut to cover most of your cheeks but is very narrow on the sides, providing a high, flattering leg opening. A string bikini has only thin straps at the sides.

A boy short provides more coverage than other styles of briefs. It falls at or under the cheek where your tush naturally creases, eliminating most visible panty lines.  Boy shorts can be a great option under pants because they sit close to the body but don’t dig!

A very cheeky brief style, Brazilian briefs flatter your assets by covering very little in the rear. Somewhere between a traditional brief and a thong, the back fabric is v–shaped and lays on top of, not between, the cheeks.

Classic briefs fit close to the body, provide moderate to full rear coverage, and are cut higher on the leg than a boy short (but are not as narrow as a bikini brief). Because they’re so comfortable, briefs are the perfect option any time you’re not worried about panty lines. They’re also great to sleep in – just be sure you have a robe handy!

A g–string is even skimpier than a thong. The front is usually very small and triangular in shape. The back has just a string that goes between the cheeks. Designers often decorate the top back of the g-string with a bow or some other small detail.

French briefs are a flirty, abbreviated relative of the boy short.  The wide sides of a french brief wrap smoothly around the hips to the back, where a very minimal cut exposes the bottom of your cheeks! Usually very low cut, these mini briefs are a hit with guys and girls alike.

“Peekaboo” is a very nice way of saying that a pair of panties has a split front and is, in essence, crotchless.  A pair of  peekaboo panties can resemble a brief, thong, or even boy shorts. Though they may seem impractical, peekaboo underwear are a big hit with men (and usually a big surprise for them, too)!

A sexy, loose short that grazes the body.  Tap pants are often made from very delicate, feminine fabrics like lace and silk. Perfect for wearing under a swingy skirt or dress, tap pants will make your legs look amazing when worn with a classic pair of high heels.

Thongs look like most other panties from the front but have a thin piece of fabric at the back that lies between the cheeks. Wearing a thong is not about coverage, it’s about preventing panty lines while looking and feeling sexy! A thong that fits properly will be comfortable enough for all day wear.

Some woman look great in one style and not the next.  Know what your body shape is and shop accordingly.

So are you a “good girl”.  I say that sarcastically.  Deep down we all want to be.  Thats why white is the number one seller.  Most woman will fall into the white panties personality.  Its what our moms taught us to be.  These panties allow you to be the girl next door, the girl a man wants to marry, and also has a power to them that are so sexy its really hard to define.

Red satin panties are very one dimensional.  They do have certainly certain “girly” attributes like Pink Panties.  And the scream seduction like black panties.  But at the end of the day red panties, especially satin ones, have a category all to themselves. Miley Cyrus and Gisele Bundchen are some celebrities that wear red really good.

As brought out in a previous post about Colors red satin panties means passionate, romantic, and definitely erotic.

These are the most erotic panties you can buy.  All the other panties are sexy too.  Not to be confused.  But there is nothing that emits sexual desire, nothing that just says what type of mood you are in the red color on your bottom.

Its true.  Think about it.  Rarely ever will you be wearing red satin panties if you are feeling under the weather, have a headache, or you just do not feel sexy.  Rarely.  You wear red when you have lost 20 lbs and want to go out, when you want to stun your husband, or when you are feeling like you are the hottest thing on earth.

Men love red satin panties.  While the other panties appeal to their imagination this color is more primal and appeals strictly to their senses.  Strictly to their eyes.  If it is at the right time and they see you with that color on they will no doubt have one thing on their mind.

And its like that with all other things.  Not just panties.  That rule applies with other things like lipstick, bras, clothing, nail polish, etc.  Red will always be associated with sex and seduction and that will not change anytime soon.  But with underwear its even more so.

Many woman choose these panties to feel sexier.  There is nothing like starting your day with satin red underwear.  Put them on at 8 in the morning and you are set.  Nobody else may know that you have them on but you will and it might just give you that confidence to kick ass durring the day.

Victoria’s Secret makes some of the best red satin panties you can find.  But there are others.  The world has no shortage of this color in the woman’s intimate clothing department.

You can buy them plain or in a lingerie set.  Usually this will include  the bra, panty, garter belt, and skirt.   Getting them in a set is nice because you do not have to worry about matching.  It takes more guesswork out.  You don’t have to wear all the pieces and I hope you won’t wear the garter belt to work but you can have it saved for that special day between you and the person you love. 

Another sexy idea, besides getting the set, is to put on a red lace nightgown over your red panties if you really want to “knock his socks off”.

This type of woman’s underwear in  particular color looks great in the bikini cut.  It really accentuates a woman’s highlights.  The least is probably the thong.  For some reason thongs have never looked good in red.  I cannot explain why?  Look great in pink, black, blue, but not red.  I think one of the reasons why is that is could be sex overkill.  Kind of like putting honey on your toast.  A little honey is great, but dousing your bread with a half jar would not be tasty.  Well, its the same thing with clothing.  Thongs mixed with red is just too much.

One challege about satin panties, and I forgot to bring this out in a previous article, is that they bunch up.  You have to make sure you size them right.  It is possible you just have to know how to do it.  Consider avoiding bikini or brief cuts if this is a problem for you.  I know I said earlier in this post that satin looks great in the bikini cut and it does but one drawback is that it does bunch.  Satin thongs do not bunch easily but a lot of woman do not like them (may be due to the lack of material) because they just feel too naked in them.  But thongs don’t have a lot of excess fabric and are a great alternative for avoiding that lumpy look or panty line under your clothing.

Find the right size.  If you get panties that are too big they will have extra fabric that will bunch up.  Every brand has a different sizing structure so remember that.  Just some helpful advice.  You can pick out the best panties in the world but if they leave a panty line or bunch and you feel uncomfortable then you are not going to feel your best.

So far what type of person do you think you are.  Your are a black panties woman?  Do you have the pink panties personality?  Or is your preference red satin?  Let me know.  Next time when we talk about colors we will discuss the white kind and what they signify.
