I have extremely fond memories of my wedding and ended up having no regrets about my bridal jumpsuit look except for one major oversight on my end: I didn’t opt for a pair of no-show underwear. It was a major face-palm moment.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t until after the wedding when I saw the pictures that I realized that I had VPL (visible panty line) in some of the shots. Thankfully, it wasn’t too bad and could be edited out of photos, but it will forever be a thorn in my side when I think of my nuptials. It’s for reasons like these that no-show underwear is such a popular and photogenic item.
The style is truly one that everyone needs in their lingerie collection—ready to wear, no matter the occasion. Whether it’s with your favorite jeans while running errands, a form-fitting dress on date night, your everyday leggings, or even your yoga pants, a pair of no-frill, seamless panties will help to keep your outfit streamlined. This ultimately spares you the disappointment I experienced firsthand at my wedding.
Here’s to a simple pair of underwear being able to give you one less thing to worry about. Hey, it’s the little things that can make a huge difference.
