Have a Hempy Holiday (Underneath Your Clothes) & Link Up On the Edge #272
“Underwear is everything because we all know that if we have on the wrong pair of underwear it ruins your day.”
Veronica Webb
Back in July of 2018, I shared a post called The Great Underwear Debacle: Chasing the Perfect Panties. Since the writing of that article, I have tried countless more panties on my quest for the perfect pair. Some have been good, some not so good, and some better than others. Then in September of 2021, I had the opportunity to collaborate with WAMA Underwear and try their hemp panties and sports bra. I even got my husband on board to try out the hemp boxers. And I must say that I think my search for the perfect panties is over!
I loved the hemp fabric against my delicate private parts so much that my first pairs of WAMA hemp underwear quickly became favorites. The more I wear and wash them, the softer the fabric becomes, making them better with each wear. The fit and the fabric are definitely the most comfortable of all the other panties that are overflowing out of my underwear drawer and I find myself reaching for them more than any of the others…even my favorite pairs from before-WAMA. So when they asked if I wanted to try some other styles, I did not hesitate at all.
The first WAMA hemp products I tried were the Racerback Bralette in Black, the Boy Shorts in WAMA Green, and the Bikini Underwear also in WAMA Green (which I love, by the way, it is my favorite shade of green). My husband tried the Boxers in WAMA Green and wears them in continuous underwear rotation as well. You can read more about our first WAMA experience in the original post about Protecting Our Privates Naturally with WAMA Hemp Underwear.
For my newest hemp underwear, I chose the High Waisted Underwear in both Black and WAMA Green and the Triangle Bralette in WAMA Green.
Of the three styles of panties I have tried, I definitely prefer the high waisted underwear so I am really happy that I ordered two pairs of these. Although the boy shorts are really super comfortable as well. I generally don’t like the way boy shorts fit. They are usually too short in the waist for my body and I feel drafty in my butt, but not with these. I actually may order the boy shorts in Black as well. The bikinis were equally comfortable but I still prefer the high waisted panties as I find that cut more comfortable.
I was nervous about the Triangle Bralette though because I do have a very large bust that requires lots of support. But I wanted to give it a try because it’s cute. And it turns out that it is even cuter on me than I thought it would be! However, it definitely does not offer enough support for me to wear underneath any tightly fitted clothing. It is more like a lounge bra for me, but I love it. And my husband really loved it on me, too! My bra size is currently a 36DDD and I ordered the X-large. But I think the large might be better in the band size for me. So I might be ordering the triangle bralette in Black as well.
And I am going to take advantage of WAMA Underwear’s amazing Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals to scoop up some hempy holiday gifts for myself! Starting today, November 26, 2021, through Friday, December 3, 2021, WAMA Underwear is offering 40% off sitewide!

A bit more about WAMA Underwear:
With a mission to produce the best hemp underwear in the world, WAMA has partnered with small family run organic hemp farms in China, the world’s leader in hemp textiles. They only partner with factories that provide their employees with fair wages and quality working environments. The WAMA Supplier Code of Conduct states,
“Here at WAMA, we are committed to the best practices that support our people, the environment, and our growing community. We therefore take responsibility for creating a positive impact on our world through safe and fair labor practices, eco-friendly initiatives, and respect for community values.”
“Hemp fabric is naturally anti-bacterial, with anti-odor properties. Super comfortable, breathable and gets softer with every wash. Hemp is also organic, eco-friendly and can help save the planet.”
For more information on the benefits of hemp underwear, visit the WAMA Blog. They have all sorts of interesting articles on topics like how to treat vagina sweat to getting deodorant stains out of your bras to camping and yoga essentials as well as healthy reasons to drink hemp tea.

Lookin good! And green of course! I usually wear strings or Brazilians. But sometimes I need a bit of correcting. And a good one is hard to find.

Thanks, Nancy! I love the green! I have never found strings very comfortable except when I used to ride on the back of Jeff’s Harley. They were ideal for motorcycle riding for some reason. This brand is great from a comfort standpoint but I would say they don’t really have any correcting abilities!

Thanks for sharing this brand again. You look amazing in this cute bralette. I struggle with bralettes too because of the support so I’m with you when it comes to a lounging bra. Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for the link up!

Thanks, Kathrine! I have found with certain bralette styles if I go down one size I usually get enough support for most of my clothes. Of course, there are always those certain clothing pieces that require very specific undergarments. But now that I can get away with bralettes most of the time, I rarely wear a regular bra anymore!

Shelbee,
What a fun photoshoot. How did you manage to keep your photographer on task?
I know that when I find a wardrobe staple like underwear and bras that I adore, I buy it in all the colors because those are the only ones that I’ll be wearing. Your WAMA brand items look great on you but then again, you’d look fabulous no matter what you’re wearing even if it was a burlap sack.

Hahaha, great comment, Rena! Thanks so much! I just ordered a triangle bralette and a pair of boy shorts in black for underneath the Christmas tree! I will probably share that set, too, even though I am not obligated to…because I really do love this underwear that much! I hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving!

Aw, thanks so much, Darlene! We do enjoy our sassy photo shoots! I forgot to point out my newly painted hallway area that I finally got around to! I really do love these underwear. They are so soft and comfortable. I just ordered the triangle bralette and a pair of boy shorts in black for underneath my Christmas tree!

I must say I prefer a larger pair of pants, especially when worn under jeans so they don’t ride up. Thanks for linking with #pocolo

I am with you on that, Suzanne! There is nothing worse than uncomfortable or ill fitting underwear!

You look great in these cute sets! Hemp is the perfect fabric for undies, it is so soft and comfortable. Another plus is that it is a sustainable fabric. Hope you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and thanks for sharing!
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thank you, Di! I absolutely love these hemp underwear! They really do get softer with each wash. I just ordered another set on he Black Friday sale! I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving, my friend.

These are super cute pieces! Lounge bras do have their place. While I don’t mind going braless in the house, I am more comfortable with the girls safely tucked into a little support.

Thanks so much, Michelle! I probably go braless at home about 50% of the time and the other 50% I wear a lounge bra. I have basically ditched most of my regular bras for bralettes anyway!
