Nylon Panties Under The Christmas Tree

One of the things I recall from my childhood was the package of nylon panties each of us girls would receive each Christmas. You know the ones I mean - the seven-pack of chaste, pastel undies. Each with a day of the week embroidered on it - and always the white pair for Sunday.

New underwear for Christmas became one of those lovely little rituals we grew to expect. The panties would be one of the packages from Santa - small, flat, wrapped in white tissue. As we grew older, the requisite parcel would be hidden in our stocking, to foster the illusion that Santa had not forgotten to bring something we needed, along with the goodies, much like the black socks and white cotton briefs he always brought for Dad.

When I was little, I didn't wonder that Santa would know the contents of our underwear drawers. Santa knew everything...and he just seemed to know that it was high time to replenish our supply of nylon panties.

Though they're not nylon, these cute cotton underpants for girls certainly bring back memories.

Updated with adorable an monkey print, this cute set is sure to please the most discerning little girl on your Christmas list.

The cool/hot new colors make a strong style statement.

This pretty days-of-the-week set, with its super pricing is a great stocking stuffer for any fashion-forward little miss.

One of our family traditions was the stuffing of the Christmas stockings. There was always a fragrant Mandarin orange nestled in the toe, and above that, some chocolate money in bright gold foil.

Usually our mother would have included some peppermint hard candies - the pretty, red and green ribbon kind. I never cared for them, but Mom was only too glad to receive any pieces we didn't want - untasted, of course.

Then, on top of the goodies we would be sure to find some little tissue-wrapped treasures. A new piece of costume jewelry, such as a cute pin for our coat lapel was always welcome.

Often, when we were older, Santa would include some floral-scented hand-milled French soap, which was immediately popped into our lingerie drawer.

...and these are the perfect panties to follow the soap into the top drawer. Doesn't everyone keep their undies in the top drawer?

This lovely pastel set by Carol Anton is full cut with a cotton crotch for a comfortable fit.

The dainty lace trim on the waist is a lovely finishing touch and keeps the waist nice and flat, and the sturdy yet dainty nylon fabric will stand up well to repeated washings.

This adorable Betty Boop" pantie features red lace trim around the legs, and red lace faux-garters with black bow embellishments. The original "party girl" Betty is still as cute as button today.

As well as being pretty enough to wear under that outfit you are saving for a very special occasion, the soft sturdy fabric is machine washable for easy care comfort, making both these panties perfect for every day wear.

This is one of the sexiest panties around this year. These luxuriously soft lace panties feature a high-cut back, and contrasting satin ribbon decorative back lace-up.

The butterfly and floral print lace fits smoothly under any garment, and at this price, you're sure to want a pair in every color.

There's something quite wonderful about new, sexy undies to make a girl feel good.

Just knowing you are wearing them, even if all the rest of the world see is a buttoned-down business look or work-out sweats, adds a saucy spring to your step and gives you a lift.

...and what's better than luscious, lovely white nylon lace for that?

Many of the lovely nylon undies featured in this article co-ordinate with matching bras. Some are available as complete sets.

These sexy sets save you the trouble of searching out a matching bra from among the piles of lingerie on the sales tables.

Whether you prefer your set of undies complemented by a matching peignoir, or a cute and flirty baby-doll set in delicate lace, you will be sure to find something to suit almost any taste.

Crafted of study yet delicate-appearing nylon, these sets are hand washable. The beautiful trim makes them a sure-fire pleaser in any girl's Christmas sock.

I will be the first to admit that neither of these lovely print thongs would ever have made it into our stockings, however, if Santa is listening right now...

These panties feature lace trim and a cotton crotch. Machine wash and tumble-dry low for easy-care.
