Avon Calling.

I have a question.

I’d better explain myself first.

My Avon order arrived today - new two-tone nail varnish and some of that cream which makes my feet feel lovely… and a free gift (hurrah).  I was also expecting a new bra/briefs set that I bought in a fit of girlishness, and because the bras just fit well.  But only the bra arrived.

This is the bra.

Avon Fruity Bra

Now, my weirdness - normally I don’t care what I wear (yes, occasionally I get nuts about it but most of the time it’s whatever I grab first) but when it comes to underwear… it has to has to has to match.  I think it comes from the old ‘wear clean underwear in case you get run over by a bus’ thing.  And the thing - well, the briefs didn’t come with the order - they are in the dreaded ‘to be sent’ box.  Now, I know I will be getting them… eventually, but now it means having to wear something with them that doesn’t exactly match.

With my favourite bra of the moment…

The 'Pretty' Avon Bra

… I wear a turquoise pair of undies with it when the matching pair are in the wash, and with my favourite non-Avon bra (even though this is one of those where the strap falls down. A lot.)…

Not an Avon Bra

…one of my many pairs of black knickers…

But with the strawberries?  A pair of white would look too Liv Tyler in Empire Records, and a pair of red?  Actually, I don’t own any red underwear.  Oh no. :-D Does this mean I’m going to have to go underwear shopping?  Oh no.  The torture.

The question?  Does anyone else have this with sets of clothing?  Or do you think it’s okay to go non-matching?  Do you have any clothing weirdnesses?
