The right ladies inner wear for any outfit and when to wear it

Undergarments are items of clothing worn beneath outer clothes, usually in direct contact with the skin, although they may comprise more than a single layer. They serve to keep outer garments from being soiled or damaged by bodily excretions, to lessen the friction of outerwear against the skin, to shape the body, and to provide concealment or support for parts of it. In cold weather, long underwear is sometimes worn to provide additional warmth. Different styles of undergarments are generally worn by females and males. Undergarments commonly worn by females today include bras, panties etc.

Bikini underwear

High-sided bikini underwear, Low-sided bikini underwear. String bikini consists of two triangular pieces connected at the groin but not at the sides, with a thin "string" around the waist connecting the pieces.
