You have two types of underwear drawers.

Drawer A: Been there, done that, liked it.
Drawer B: Been there, done that, definitely not doing it tonight.

While A is chockful of Hello Kitty boy shorts, B is empty (except for tattered remnants of a naughty librarian costume).

You may have to create a Drawer C for Vagin Pouvoir lingerie (look up the French translation at your own risk). As naughty as it is nice (ahem), the Rapture collection consists of satin and silk chiffon artfully arranged on your body. Crisscrosses on bras, briefs, and barely there thongs leave an inkling to the imagination. The peek-a-boo triangle positioned atop your bum cleavage (online only) takes the prize for most sexy and least subtle.

The next time you need to slip into something more comfortable, choose C: Never done it, but why the heck not?

Available at Alla Prima Fine Lingerie, 539 Hayes Street, between Octavia and Laguna Streets (415-864-8180). To see styles, go to vaginpouvoir.com.
