Or maybe it’s a bra, a chemise, or a pair of stockings. For me, when I need a boost of confidence on a special day, I have a pair of Power Panties.
They’re not fancy. They’re just a regular old pair of Hanes cotton bikini panties.
But they’re black. And when I wear them I strut with a certain extra swagger.
No one but me knows I’m wearing them. I think that’s part of the power. Not that anyone much gives any thought to my underwear, but I’m pretty sure most would peg me for a plain white panties kind of girl. If they only knew about my black racers…
Well, I guess if they ever read this post they will.
This week the Power Panties will be called into action. I have my first doubles tennis match ever. I need a little extra confidence and sass. My black Power Panties can deliver!
But I’m also going to pair them with my black sport’s bra. I rarely wear the two together because, while my Power Bra is powerful, it doesn’t give me as much vim as the Power Panties do.
However, when they’re combined….watch out! Talk about a power boost!
Now if we end up not playing a bunch of crafty old “Blue Hairs,” as the part of my team that played last week dubbed the old ladies they played against and got absolutely schooled (and smoked) by, I’ll be in good shape.
(That was a really funny story last week. My team is all 30 and 40 something women. The team last week was all retirees of 60 and 70 somethings. No one on my team even won a set. Didn’t even come close.)
This week we play Hillwood. (Each week we play different teams representing different parts of the city.) From what I’ve heard Hillwood represents the upper crust of Nashville’s society. I should expect full makeup and 10-carat diamond ring bling because that’s how those Hillwood ladies customarily roll. Oh, and I should expect a whoppin’. Like the Blue Hairs, they were also the clear winners of all their matches last week.
All I can say is, my Power Panties are clean and ready to be called into action. Win, lose or draw, my Power Panties will have me up for the challenge!
