I’m 32 and cannot find cute, affordable panties. I don’t need Victoria’s Secret level sexy, but something besides a cotton 8 pack from Walmart has to be out there.

Parade
I don’t know either. I had weight loss surgery, so I don’t fit into Torrid sizes anymore (it was my comfort store), and their underwear is really good. I have/wear Hanes right now and they’re okay, but I feel like shit for supporting them.

Lately I’ve also been into French cut panties
But from jockey
Aerie 10/$42
I found aerie to have a good selection
Bombas
Knix is my go to these days
I still get the 5x special from Victoria’s Secret Pink after decades
Soma
I used to swear by ARQ but they’ve been out of business for a while now. I hope they come back one day but in the meantime I like Parade’s undies a lot. Lots of different cuts and materials, not too pricey, and I think they hold up really well. I’ve had a few unravel on me but for a few dollars I’m not crying about it. But most have lasted me a good long time.
I can’t find anything that fits. I have a gut so every brand that I try just rolls down.
Natori, Wilde Mode, Universal Standard (not very cute, but super soft & very size inclusive), Cosabella, when they can be bothered to make my size.
Tj maxx has good selection and they’re affordable
I love Huha because they’re super high quality and breathable
Target. Soft, comfy, easy, affordable. From the drawers
I love La Senza!
Natori!
Calvin Klein mostly cotton (not synthetic fibers) panties from Nordstrom Rack. Never pay full price for panties 🙌 https://www.nordstromrack.com/search?origin=keywordsearch&keyword=calvin%20klein%20panties%20women
Edit: there are definitely more affordable options, but based on my experience these panties last longer than other brands I tried so far
Intimissimi
Most of the time I wear Victoria’s secret women’s boxer briefs. They’re high waisted like my leggings, so the waist bands hit at the same place which is more comfortable for me. They’re full coverage so they don’t cause panty lines even though I have wider hips and a bigger butt. And, oddly, even though they’re a step away from “granny panties,” they feel sexy because they fit well and are flattering. They’ve also held up well to a lot of washing. If I’m wearing pants with a lower rise, I wear VS hipsters.
La Senza had a wide variety, both cute, and comfortable.
aerie, but also knotty knickers for their women’s boxers
I got some cute ones from kohls recently actually lol
I joined the Bombas Cult and I’m pretty happy about it.
PACT!
I’ve noticed aerie shrinks like crazy, VS holds up
Auden brand at Target
Natori french cut!
I got the Bare brand off barenecessities.com
For everyday I wear these and I LOVE them. Super breathable, not hideous, don’t feel like granny panties and they hold up well. They’re basic but they’re so comfy. https://www.target.com/p/fruit-of-the-loom-women-39-s-6pk-breathable-micro-mesh-bikini-underwear-colors-may-vary-5/-/A-77601504

There’s plenty of comfortable casual non sexy at Victoria’s Secret. That’s what I get. I’m not into lacy thongs.
Aerie, quince if I want a treat
Hanky Panky.
Listen. I just buy them in packs at this point. I don’t care anymore lol
I like MeUndies! The prints are fun.
Dang, I just get the 6 pack of Hanes or Fruit of the Loom.
Honestly? Kindred bravely. I know it is geared towards pregnancy but they’re very flattering cuts with a lace waistband and they actually hold up to regular washing and drying.
I buy the 6 packs at target
GAP! I get the black cotton ones in different styles. They do deals sometimes too!
I like the gap body undies because they come in classic cuts and the fabric is mostly cotton
