Dear Budget Fashionista,

I have a problem with visible panty lines and am not into wearing thongs. Which manufacturers make panties that eliminate this problem?

Almost every manufacturer has a version of the NVP (no visible pantyline) undergarment. Some brands to try are Bali, Jockey, Wacoal, and even Target brands. Make sure to look for underwear that has what is called laser edges, which are very thin edges that leave no line. You can also try wearing a pair of spanx power panties, they don’t leave lines and tuck you in a bit.. but they can be uncomfortable.
