Dear B & L,
I couldn't take a pic without looking like a creep, but I just saw a girl wearing see-through white pants on the T..but not bad enough, she was wearing floral pattern granny panties that were very visible!
That has to be one of your fashion "no no's" right?

Dear Concerned,
Dear Concerned,
Oh goodness, yes! That whole situation is a definite no-no!
Now, a few points of interest we need to address:
1. Depending on your office's dress code, anything sheer is likely inapprorate for the work place. A sheer blouse coupled with a coordinating cami underneath might work in some situations; but to be safe, or unless you are completely certain, shear is better left for the weekend.
2. GRANNY PANTIES?! Oh no, no, no, no, no!
Yes, we ladies seek comfort in our undergarments. They need to not only cover our unmentionables, but also be functioning. (haha, L's "old lady speak.")
Yes, a thong can get annoying, dental flossing your cheeks all day, but our fashion victim could have very well adorned her bottom with a pair of seamless hipsters, cheekies, tangas, or bikinis if she can't handle a thong. These are less intrusive than the thong, providing more coverage.
More importantly, seamless undergarments won't create any VPL (visible panty line!) and are key items for your wardrobe.
3. Not only is seamless key, but the fashion victim would have been in the "wrong" if she chose white undies underneath her white pants. (Let us not even go to the floral! Ugh!) Nude/fleshtone shades are KEY when wearing white/lighter colors. They virtually blend in, leaving the focus on your work, not on your, uhm goodies.
Another mistake ladies often make is pairing a light colored brassier underneath a black top. Of course it's usually done when a picture is taken, and the next day Fashion Victim's face, black top that now appears shear and her white boobs are shown when the photo is posted or e-mailed around!
Just follow this simple mantra when getting ready: Dark under dark, stay away from too busy prints, and nude/fleshtones under light colors!

Wow, the "T" is the perfect place to snap some spy pics! It's close quarters so you don't have to worry about zooming in. You just turn off the sound to your camera phone and click away! The key is pretending you are texting or reading a text! Remember, you are not taking shot for the next cover of GQ so it doesn't have to be perfect, just get the evidence!
