Warm Felines on Shelter Covers

This delicious article by Ms. Christina Binkley of the Wall Street Journal discusses the current decrease in popularity of the slip. Binkley argues that this trend is due in part to the invention of masochistic undergarments like Spanx (I say this - not her. I wore a pair once and I swear I felt like I was recovering from an appendicectomy the next day) coupled with the increased trendiness of sheer clothing that shows your undies or perhaps even your boobies or hoo-ha.

This article is certainly a sweet little must-read. But I have to say, I still love me a vintage slip. They add a great girly quality under dresses and skirts and they’re fun to sleep in too. Also, dudes who don’t really seem to care about clothes or fashion at all seem to dig them. Has anyone else noticed this odd phenomenon?
