I call BS too. How about 75% of women in a new relationship (6 months or less)? Back then MAYBE I tried to match when I could, but even then it's just not practical to have bras to match your underwear.

Yeah that is BS. I used to match, but then I stopped for some reason....

@MaisyMay: So true - if both socks are the same colour, I'm having a good day.

@Foodnerd81: hahaha, maybe. It was on 96.9 this morning, I imagine that's kind of a younger audience than some stations. And you're right, I totally wore my best undies if I knew I was givin it up while dating, ugly undies were a way to ensure I didn't

@mrs. bird: Really? 75%? I don't believe it. Bras and underwear wear out at different rates!
I currently don't even OWN any matching sets, let alone wear matching sets!

Haha yeah, no. I only match on accident. Frankly, DH couldn't care less what my underwear looks like; he just wants it off!

I bet it's 75 percent of women who won't admit to not matching (:
I know I don't (:

I don't. I bet this was a poll taken in a Victoria's Secret store or sponsored by some lingerie company.

Wow...I'm a slacker too then! I don't even own a matching set...my bras are embarrassingly grandma-like

hahahaha yeah right! I would love to know who they surveyed. I don't think I even OWN any matching sets. The only time I would match would be on the off chance my underwear and bra just happened to both be black.

Hahahaha!!!
I think I own *maybe* two sets, and they are not every day sets, they are special occasion, quality time with DH sets.

@mrs. bird: Lol, I wish I was that "together". I just do it because its the only way I can get semblance of order in my otherwise majorly DISORGANIZED life.

@Apex: hahaha, yeah, we all have weird things that make us feel like we have order- i fold my underwear, i have to, i can even perfectly fold a thong, doesn't mean it always gets put away, they can live in a laundry basket for a week, but you better believe they're all folded nicely because it makes me feel like there is some order to my life, i'm delusional

@mrs. bird: Ummmm, no. 75% of the time I'm just thankful I have semi-clean clothes to put on in the morning.

@redsmarties: haha I have no matching sets at all either!
That stat can't possibly be right!

No, I don't even own matching sets and I never have. It would be totally impractical since bra's last longer than undies plus depending on what I'm wearing I may have to wear a nude or strapless bra and a mismatched thong or something so nothing shows.

I never match unless my bra is white and my undies have white in them. Or the same thing but with black. I don't ever wear an actual matching set.

@jedeve: YES! i don't have ANY matching sets. is this because we're moms? i didn't even have matching sets before this though?
grapefruit / 4089 posts
No way! I own a couple of matching items, but they rarely get worn together.
GOLD / cantaloupe / 6703 posts
@redsmarties: You match colors? Good for you! I make sure the lengths match, anything beyond that is luck. Blue polka dots totally match yellow stripes? Right?

I have one bra that could match one pair of underwear (grey and white striped), but they didn't come together...not even the same brand...and I never wear them together. If I do, it's on accident. Other than that, nope.

Define 'match'? Ha. If my undies ever match, it's most likely a happy accident.
honeydew / 7488 posts
None of mine are matching sets, but they are pretty much all the same color, nude haha. So they match in that sense.
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
Uhh... what matches a black coobie bra? I guess I should just buy 20 sets of black cotton underwear. Then I can be in the 75%! yay!!
