So….I’m doing my research to deliver up a fantastic post on work-ready underwear especially for the ladies who love to wear those tight rayon pants…and I stumble upon the C-String. Excuse the slight nudity for a minute please my dear readers, I’m uncomfortable just looking at the models! My first reaction was….are you serious?!?!?! Well…panty lines are very taboo…how far are you willing to go to get rid of em while still wearing underwear? I thought that I should definitely give the C-String a try, you know, in order to give an accurate description of the product *wink wink* however I came across one mom’s week long experience with the product and thought it did the job. Here’s an excerpt:

This is the stuff of nightmares. I am walking down the road pushing a buggy when I have to bend down to pick up a dropped toy.

A passing van driver leers at me and then beeps his horn. But it’s not because of my blonde hair: it’s because I look as if I forgot to put on any underwear that morning.

Dressed in hipster jeans I wander gingerly downstairs. Already the pants are chafing. I rapidly realize that hipsters are the wrong item of clothing for the C-string

I take the children to the park and fall into conversation with a pleasant-seeming couple with a child a little older than Archie.

Our children smile shyly at each other and take turns on the slide. And then Oscar, my youngest, falls down and I bend over…an apparently underwear-free mother. The couple make their excuses and leave the park quickly, glancing behind them as they leave.

Of course, there are those who think the product is the next best thing, mostly those of the size 2 blonde variety however. These were a man’s sentiments on seeing the product:

"Back to reality. About 1 women in 1000 look good in this. The other 999 give me nightmares with flabby loose skin . If it ain’t good, keep it under cover and let us fellows use our imagination. Don’t stick it in our faces!"

Gotta love those men! The website recommends wearing them as swimwear, cus you know, tan lines are evil! And of course they are only available in small and medium and the medium is recommended for persons between 115 and 140 lbs. I’m happy that they haven’t included a large size actually…we do have some delusional big women out there.

I found this product pitch from Love Honey hilarious!

"As a major league tan fan (with lashings of sun lotion of course), the C-String is an absolute dream come true. As well as helping to avoid those unsightly tan lines and looking a darn sight sexier than your average bikini, I’ve also found that the C-String doubles up as a retro style hairband and is perfect for nights on the town - a clean pair of course. Just don’t tell anyone that the PR Manager of LoveHoney trips the light fantastic with knickers on her head!"

Thats what I thought when I saw them too…cute headband I’ve also heard it being referred to as a glorified sanitary napkin….eeww…lol
