Me Thinx I have a Solution

Last week I talked about tampons (post here), so I thought this week why not talk about period proof underwear. Recently I came across another blogger's review of Thinx, Period-Proof underwear that protects you from leaks and keeps you feeling dry. 

How do they work? Moisture-wicking keeps you feeling dry even when you’ve had a spill. The Anti-Microbial finish fights bacteria with an invisible silver treatment. The hip hugger style holds up to two tampons’ worth of liquid, and they claim that "even your whitest pants are safe". 

Sound Gross?

"Well, every pair of THINX has a top layer that wicks all liquid into the über thin absorption layer right beneath it, so that you feel super dry. This way, you can wear 'em all day long (i.e., no, you don't have to change them during the day, no, they don't feel like diapers, and no, it's not like sitting in your own blood). Boom."

I'm not interested in fully replacing the tampon, but the appealing thing about these underwear is the extra protection they can provide at night. Not to over share, but I've ruined 2 sets of white sheets in the last year due to leaks....good, expensive sheets. And I'm going to do everything I can to prevent it from happening again. 

I'm hoping Thinx underwear are my solution!

A Perfect Fit

There is nothing more important in a woman's closet than a well fitted bra. Since we're all "friends",  I will speak honestly and say my chest is pretty flat (i think my ribs are actually bigger than my boobs), and I find it hard to find a bra that fits well. There is nearly always a large gap at the top of the bra between my skin and the bra, which is clearly not ideal. 

A few weeks ago when I ordered the camo skimmer jeans, which I blogged about here, I also ordered the Gap Body Favorite T-shirt bra. My bras were old and ready to be retired, so I figured why not try this bra. Let me just say, there is a reason they call it the "favorite" t-shirt bra. I would call it the "perfect fit bra" because I've never worn a bra that fits better than this one! I've since ordered two more and am going to throw out all of my other bras! 



So if you have a small chest like me, this might be the bra for you! I highly suggest trying it!
