Here at MummyPages we have a soft spot for Jennifer Garner. Although she is a stunning famous actress with a gorgeous movie star husband, she often demonstrates how she is just another normal mum. Whether she’s out in the rain watching little Violet’s soccer game, or shopping at the farmers market with hubby Ben, she is clearly one of the most down-to-earth mums in Hollywood.
But the photo that we really related to was the 'holey-knickers' photo. One of the unfortunate side effects of becoming a mum is your underwear drawer may take a battering. While we might find time to do the occasional clothes shopping, finding time to buy lovely new lingerie is a rarity. And when we’re getting ready in the morning, we generally don’t have time to search our drawers for our best undies, so, like Jennifer, we grab the first pair at hand and try to get dressed quickly before the kids come bursting into us.
However, we then spotted Jen wearing a pink lacy thong and wondered, is this typical mummy underwear? Maybe, once again, she just grabbed the first pair out of the wash, although we suspect after the holey-knicker photo, she started choosing her underwear more carefully in the mornings.
Do you have a mixed bag drawer of undies? Do you replace and replenish frequently or do you wear them until they wear out? And what kind of underwear do you prefer? Nice matching underwear or are you part of the comfy-undies brigade?
