White skirts and VPL

I got a lovely one last summer from Sainsburys of all places. I did the 'standing in front of light with legs open' test and it passed. It was lined.

?@ wines. Could that be the problem?!

I have an underskirt I wear with unlined pale skirts - just very occasionally for weddings etc. It does make me feel as though I am a little old lady when I put it on though ?

I think you should resurrect the petticoat. Fashun trends have to start somewhere, right?

Wines? How did I do that? ? Hmmm, Sainsbuggers?

You want to lay off the Cherry Lambrini.

Cherry Lambrini? Since when?

Our old Indian takeaway sent us some as a gift before we moved, tastes like Cherryade ?

I wear <whispers> flesh colour pants.

Oh the shame ?

I have no shame about my flesh coloured pants ? I even have special invisible knickers from Sloggi. But you can still see them through stoopid transparent white skirts.

But they won't do the job if you've got legs like Will Carling will they Sparks?☹️

pretty pretty pretty petticote

Hmm, in that case I would go down the petticoat route. Can you get cotton ones?

I remember my Mum making me wear horrible scratchy shiny ones when I was at school - bleaurgh!

Sunset - Will Carling legs?? You or me?? [wink]

I bought a white skirt last summer from H and M which wasn't transparent - but it was lined so maybe that made a bit of a difference. I wear it with some knickers from Marks and spencer underneath - the kind that apparently have "no VPL" - something like this http://www.marksandspencer.com/gp/product/B000YZ7NLK/sr=1-3/qid=1213096006/ref=sr_1_3/026-0401802-3881220?ie=UTF8&node=60021031&m=A2BO0OYVBKIQJM&keywords=&mnSBrand=core&size=9&rh=&page=

(sorry don't know how to do a short link)

If the skirt is reasonably flowing/ roomy, I'd go for a petticoat- in fact, the tiered net petticoat look is next spring's new look, appaaaaarrently.

Otherwise, I'd just go with the fact that it's see through but then, I am a bit shameless in that respect.

I bought a white cotton skirt in new look and that is lined and you can't see anything - not even bright pink pants. It's just got a cotton lining.

Did you buy it recently? The one I tried on today (working form home icon ?) was New Look and it was totally see-through.

Caterpillar - those pants are great, but wouldn't work with any of the ones I've tried.

I bought it about a month and a half ago - it's quite floaty and has some cut-work detail on the hem. [cold sweat of the thought of it really being see-through!]

I wear this - http://www.marksandspencer.com/gp/product/B0011UXG0Y/sr=1-3/qid=1213098881/ref=sr_1_3/026-8636289-0522065?ie=UTF8&node=62870031&m=A2BO0OYVBKIQJM&keywords=&mnSBrand=core&size=9&rh=&page=

kind of thing, can't see pants under, or it over

The only thing I could think of is http://www.spanx.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2990094&cp=2992555.3010053&parentPage=family I know you don't need them for the slimming properties but a pair of spanxs should stop the VPL

Don't want to wear spanx in the summer <stropicon>

Maybe I need to set aside my white skirt dreams ?

I would be heading down the petticoat route for sure.

I have a white A-line skirt, which is lined and shows naff all through it. Seriously, I could wear luminous pants and no-one would be any the wiser. I bought it yonks ago, though, and can't remember where from. That was helpful, wasn't it? ?

Hmmm. Thanks everyone. Especially Redhead. ?

If you don't want to wear Spanx then "do a Britney" then ?

Anyway, a see through skirt can be sexy........

Remember that famous Diana photo?

It's not so sexy to show big granny grots off, but the shape of your legs, calves, thighs is very sexy..........
