Now that I've got your undivided attention from the words "Hanky Panky", I had better explain what I'm referring to before continuing. Hanky Panky is a lingerie company based in New York, that has been around since 1977. Their products are made and shipped out of the good ol' USA. I can't recall exactly when or how I discovered this company, but all I know is, I've been a loyal fan of the Low-Rise Thong for at least six years now. Yes, I said the "T" word! I can hear the gasps and shrieks of astonishment and skepticism now... "How can you wear a thong - you're a Mom for God's sakes!" or "I can't wear thongs... they give me a wedgie." My mind used to conjure up those exact thoughts too - that is, until I tried these bad boys on.

Let's delve into some of the reasons why I am so in love with these, shall we? First off, the most important thing: comfort. They are made with the softest lace imaginable, and I'm not lying when I say that I can't even feel them when they're on. It's not the cheap, scratchy kind of lace that rips and falls apart after a few washings. I've also found that they do not stretch out. Ever. Oh, and ladies, because they are lace and fit snugly, there is no VPL (visible panty line). Yay!

Secondly, they are instant pick-me-ups when I'm having a bad day, or feel a little blah. Let's face it, us Moms sometimes need all the help we can get. Now that my kids are a little older and more independent, it's way more of a smoother ride. I remember the good ol' days of having zero sleep, dried milk and spit-up on my shirt, my hair a mess, and being in sweats all day. Makeup or a shower? What's that? Or, even now, with kids running around screaming, and spilt milk on the floor, and runny noses to deal with, we need little things along the way to cheer us up. For some, it may be going out and buying a new lipstick. For others, it may be going for a walk around the block, while some may enjoy having a nice, hot bath. Those are all great things, but nothing makes you feel sexier, or more beautiful than putting on a pair of hot-pink Hanky Pankies. Trust me, my husband can attest to this!

Which me brings me to my third reason for this lovefest - the huge range of colours that they come in.
Who wants to wear boring beige, white and black, when you can choose from colours like Atomic Pink, Bali Blue, Electric Orchid, Key Lime Pie, or Passion Fruit?! I recently discovered a beautiful lingerie store called Knickers Lingerie Boutique that carries Hanky Panky. They had on display a few of the pretty colours available. Needless to say, I will definitely be back!

Okay, now for the bad news, like the down part of a movie that you know is always coming... the price for one pair is $20. I know, pretty steep, considering that you can probably get four or five pairs of similar-looking undies elsewhere. I have yet to find some that are of the same quality of lace as these ones though. If you know of such a thing existing, please email me! I would love to try them. Also, It's not like I buy twenty pairs at one time! I pick one up here and there, and over time, you will find yourself with quite a collection. You will not regret spending the extra money for them, as they last a long, long time. Not only that, the way that they make you feel when you wear them, you can't put a price on.
