Is your lingerie looking dated? Take stock on National Underwear Day (or thereabouts)
Oops, I missed National Underwear Day (August 5th). Thankfully, I was inadvertently celebrating appropriately by wearing a rather nice pair of frilly knickers and a lacy bra. So all is not lost.
Strikes me as a funny thing to create a national day for underwear. But I’m open minded, and any day that encourages folk to discard threadbare hangers-on from their lingerie drawer — and invest in garments worth celebration – is good with me.
Freshpair.com sent me some shocking statistics that seem to support the need for an underwear day:
- 80% of adult Americans never change their underwear style
- 60% don’t wear underwear that fits
Freshpair.com is trying to get some of these lingerie-challenged folks to change their dubious underwear habits. Until August 14th, it is giving away 5,000 free underwear garments from brands including Calvin Klein Lingerie, Lunaire, Panache, and Elle Macpherson Intimates.
And, until August 15th, it is also offering free gifts with purchases from many of its leading labels, including Wacoal, Sassybax, and Betsey Johnson Intimates. Check out Freshpair.com for details.
