I Tried It
OK, I actually loved them.
Save for special occasions, theyve barely been used.
Much to my dismay,thongs are the starof the fashion lexicon at the moment.
It provides all the lingerie vibes with none ofthe chafing.
TheCamila Coelho-designed styleinspired me to try something so outside of my comfort zone.
I reached for exclusively cropped shirting to let the pants star.
To my shock and delight, Mom loved them.
She told me they remind her of the 90s and dial up Internet.
The look was a hit.
I got stopped on the street by a stranger who wanted to buy a pair of her own.
And when a total stranger takes the time to compliment your look, youknowits really good.
An exposed thong (faux or not) felt daring and risque to me.
But I was genuinely surprised by how cute I felt with my whale tail exposed.
Who knows, I may even buy a lace thong after this.
Im a whole new woman.
