I personally only wear panties when I HAVE to, which is not often.
I wear either tank tops with bras in them or genie bras, depending on how my skin is at the moment.
For the most part I wear shorts as underwear. They breathe better and I can move them up and down my waist so they don't make sores from being in one spots.
I DO actually wear jeans, but, NEVER with zippers or buttons. They have to be elastic waist band, and the shorts have to behigh enough the elastic never touches my skin.
It's nice to feel "normal" sometimes though. And with a long enough shirt you can NOT tell that my jeans are elastic.

Side note: The jeans are cheap too! I get them at walmart in just my size for about 16 bucks. :D

Have you tried the new pajama jeans???? Thoughs might help you out a lot since you miss your jeans. I have only seen them but they look so comfy and they are suppose to fit just like pajama pants. They aren't that expensive either deff cheaper than a pair of reg jeans!!!

that's what these JMS jeans are like, i didn't even think about pajama jeans! I bet those would work well!

Thanks for the ideas! I would like to try the pajama jeans, I will have to check that out for sure. Soft is the key. Shorts work well at home but at work I just feel strange going without my underclothing. But I think the pain is winning that battle. I'm just gonna have to get over it.

I haven't wore jeans in a couple of years. I always wear sweats except to work which is black khaki material

I'm the same way Beloved! :)

Toni, when I can't tolerate the boy short undies I wear boxers for men or the jockey shorts. I have heard mixed reviews about the under armour stuff - it wicks away sweat and all that but personally it didn't work for me. As far as bras go, most men have a better chest than I do *giggles* so I usually just wear cotton sports bras.

I have toyed with the idea of wearing more skirts since my HS is primarily below the waist, anything that conforms to the body too much eventually causes a flare.

Question - has anyone else here had the joy of random strangers giving you advice on your appearance? I seem to just have a sign that screams "Tell me I need a make over!" I guess? :/

@Momber - I went through that a few years ago cause my HS was getting to the point where I would wear sweats everywhere I went. Hell my hair and make up would be done but I would just wear comfy pants and shirts that wouldn't be tight on my arm pits. As we all know at times it hurts just to even walk, sit, or lay down!!!! I thought I looked cute but apparently a person I use to hang out with didn't think so at all and let me know in front of everyone. It was then when I went off cause it hurt my feelings. I pretty much stripped down just to show them what I was going through.... They knew I had this disease but apparntley it didn't go through their head what I actually go through on a daily basis!!!!
I just tell people to think before they speak now cause they don't know a persons full story of why they dress the way they do!!!

My daughter wears boy shorts and sports bras. If I let her wear jeans she usually breaks out cause they cling to the buttocks....so the jeans thing I dont like to do..... She is tiny and loves to wear skirts in the summer. Here in Houston it is hotter than hell 9 months out of 12 so she likes summer shere clothing in the summer. As far as winter goes, it is colder in the winter so she wears sweats and long sleeved t shirts.....try to not let her get overheated so I keep her as cool as possible.... I think 100% cotton is the best for HS cause the fabric is breathable..... Tangerinebear xo

I've found these "jeans" at kohls, they are Jean leggings. They look just like jeans. The brand name is Elle. Very comfy and very flattering.

Hi everyone,

I really understand what you're saying about the clothing. One thing that struck me about my wardrobe is that I mostly wear dark colors these days. Suppose it helps with not showing stains. Anyone else going through this.
