NSVs and a panty question

Two totally unexpected NSVs :)

1 - For the first time since I can ever remember, I was able to wrap a towel around my whole body and the edges overlapped.  OMG.  I couldn't even do this in high school when I weighed 50 pounds less than I do now!  What's up with that?!  

2 - My 18/20 panties started chaffing my inner thigh, so I switched to 14/16s.  This is crazy since I just started wearing the 18/20s in late June!  14/16 is the smallest size Lane Bryant sells and I've been wearing the exact same cut and style for at least the last 15 years, I feel a bit panicky.  Where can I buy comfy cotton briefs?!

JCPenny.com is where I went when I sized out of Lane Bryant -- but now that I work for sears, check out Sears.com or shopyourway.com :)

If you like the cotton, I'd say to check out Jockey or Hanes.  When I needed new undies, I went to Soma and picked up their vanishing edge undies--no panty lines and they're super comfy, but they are not all cotton.

For the non-fancy, utilitarian panties that I wear for working out I prefer good ol' Hanes that I get at Wal-mart.

I go to Victoria's Secret when they are having super sales and get the cotton boyshorts.  They are super cute and very comfy.  My biggest problem since losing most of my butt is that my undies keep creeping up my butt.  The boyshorts stay put and no panty lines!  Here:  VS Boyshorts

I love the comfy cotton briefs. (I love granny panties even more! Not sexy at all but sooo comfy.) Target carries a good selection.

Because I hope my sizes go down rapidly, I opted to get a couple of packs of Haines at WalMart.  I too love boyshorts.  They don't ride up and I can't stand anything up above a hipster.

I liked VS cotton undies when I was younger, and I had saved some from college when I really started gaining.  I am back in my college undies now (surprisingly the elastics were still good!)

When I need more new ones I will try VS again.  The walmart hanes ones are way too droopey on my body - even int eh right size, I'd always have extra panty fabric that wanted to stick out of my pants.
