I have a few full slips, because I like to wear them as nightgowns when I am in a nightgown and bathrobe around the house mood, and I think I have two half slips, one beige and one black, but I am not sure.
Simon: The decision saved your life. Zoe: Won't happen again, sir. Mal: Good. And thanks. I'm grateful. Zoe: It was my pleasure, sir.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
You know, I think I stick to things that come with linings if they need it too. I never really thought about it, but having to find an item of clothing to fit under other clothing? I already have to deal with bras, why add further complication?
That's enough, sj. Enjoy the exhibit.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
My mother raised me to wear slips with any and all skirts, but I believe that was the first bit of my upbringing that I dropped upon reaching college. What a rebel I was!
Anyway, all the skirts I own are either lined, reasonably thick and opaque by themselves, or just too damn casual to wear extra underwear for.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I do not own a slip. I think the last time I wore one was under my graduation robe. (Since I lived across the street from the stadium, and could easily go home to change afterwards.)

I have some silk slips that I wear with certain things because the slips feel better against my skin.
Perkins, unless you want an endodontist in Berkeley, I got nothing. You can check the UCB Parents Network to see if they have any recomendations for a town near you.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I have some silk slips that I wear with certain things because the slips feel better against my skin.
I forgot, this is the other reason I wear a slip, if the skirt or dress it too itchy without one.

If clothes don't feel good against my skin, I don't wear them anyway. I shop by touch.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Slips make my skirts hang better. I prefer just getting lined skirts to begin with, but not all of the ones I like come that way.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Cass and I are still one.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I shop by price, followed by touch and how much care is required. Garments which require hand-washing and ironing or dry cleaning tend to go back on the rack. If I was a rich sort of person, I would have lots of silk and linen and crepe and velvet clothing, and let someone else do the upkeep.
