You have to go to a department store, like your mom goes to, and then you have to find where they keep the nylon granny panties and there’s a rack next to them.
About the only time I wear a skirt is to job interviews. That’s also the only time I wear pantihose and pettilegs (not a half-slip). The pettilegs protect my inner thighs from The Chafe.
If I wear a long skirt to something like a wedding (very few and far between), I wear the pettilegs but no pantihose.
I’m 22, and I, along with other girls my age I know, actually wear shorts under our dresses. Like, tight shorts. Kinda like the cheap ghetto version of pettilegs. Not for date nights or anything, if you think you’re getting lucky you’re going to dress up, but for events like weddings or family gatherings, it works.
Like bloomers or skirtys! I sew white knit shorts (with stretch lace edging) for my little girls to wear. Very practical for running around.
Yep, I’m a girl. 
I do wear one on occasion for the reasons mentioned.
Oddly enough, I think of them as rather old ladyish, but like corkboard, my boyfriend finds them very sexy.
Huh. I haven’t even THOUGHT about wearing a slip for years. I’m 52 and grew up wearing half-slips and full slips, but probably haven’t worn one in at least 15 years. I don’t wear pantyhose, either, but I do wear opaque black tights, even in Florida summers (sometimes; not with every dress or skirt, of course), and sometimes the cottony-ness of the tights results in my skirt sticking to the tights. I wouldn’t have thought of wearing a slip to prevent this, but now that I’ve read this thread, I think that’s the solution. So thanks!
I do that sometimes, and I’m much older than you. I also wear Spanx-like garments. Not quite a girdle, but almost. Almost.
Haven’t worn a dress in mmmmm well can’t say it’s been that long, but I always used to wear a slip, I think. Though I had a great skirt back in the early 90’s that was two or three layers of soft muslin, I suspect I didnt wear a slip with that or with the denim jumper either.
'heck’s a “tootie”?
When I worked in a women’s clothing store, we called those things “controllers” to distinguish them from girdles. They don’t make you look any skinnier, but they do smooth out the body lines, and they are very good for jiggle control.
Gosh, it wouldn’t even occur to me to wear a slip.
Sometimes I wear two layers of skirts, mind - but that’s for a layered look, it doesn’t occur to me that people might be able to see through.
Can’t really bring myself to care, though.
Oh, and yes, I do wear pantihose with dresses, unless I’m wearing sandals. I figure if it’s a casual enough situation that I’m wearing sandals, there’s no need for hose.
Yeah, that dress doesn’t seem to really want a slip. The lads on that site aren’t all good judges of how to dress a woman.
Weird. I haven’t worn a slip since high school, and even then only because Mom insisted That’s How Things Are Done. In addition to being uncomfortable, they tended to be super-full of static cling, which of course made the skirt staticky too… I’m sort of baffled that people wear slips to prevent static.
If a skirt is uncomfortable or doesn’t lie right when I try it on in the store, I don’t buy it. I wouldn’t even occur to me to try to take it home and “fix it” with a slip.
Also, I pretty much figure that whoever sees me out in public already knows I have legs. They even get a much better view of how my legs connect to my trunk when I wear pants! Gasp! So I can’t say I ever get freaked out that someone might see a silhouette through my skirt in just the right lighting. If they do, so what?
Oh wait, I did wear a slip for an evening about 5 years ago. I was dressing up (ehr… dressing down?) to go to a performance of Rocky Horror. White half slip, white bra, white stockings. Dug the damn thing out of the way back of the dresser drawer I never use.
I use Bounce to remove the static cling. Then the only static I have to worry about is that which occurs during wearing, which is pretty much rubbing skirt against chair or whatever. When I stand up, the slip makes sure that a) the skirt doesn’t cling up to the point things I don’t want exposed are exposed, and b) often prevents the skirt from clinging to my legs/stockings. Also, slips prevent the sweat lines that often occur in the desert heat.
Heh. That’s awesome. Some of them look mad sexy just by themselves–like with the real sexy lingerie, why do only a select few get to see them?
I always do, unless it is very hot outside.
A skirt does not hang right without a slip, and it doesnt feel very good, esp depending on the fabric of the skirt, even a wool skirt feels good if a nylon slip is underneath.
Lots of skirts will bunch up when walking and look terrible, of course, the girl doesnt see it because she never sees herself walking in a skirt without a slip.
It also can be nice to have on when it gets unexpectantly windy later in the day.
Its also convenient and comfy to take off your skirt when you get home and just have the slip on before changing.
Besides, mine are very pretty, soft, lacy, and feminine.
Seriously? You can see her pubes right through the skirt in one picture. It’s see through, and it’s very much clinging between her legs, thus giving us all a better idea of what her crotch is like than we’d want. Those are two of the best reasons to wear a slip.
I didn’t see any pubes–I mean, presumably she was wearing underwear, too, right? Okay, I think in the second pic you can sort of see underwear, but it didn’t look horrible to me.
Then she must be wearing dark underwear under that white dress, which would get a major 
from me. It’s not a matter of it looking “horrible” (though I think it looks pretty bad)-- you don’t want people to be able to see your panties, or worse, your pubes, right through your dress, do you? Nor do you want your skirt jammed up between your legs. Slips exist to prevent both of those eventualities.
