Thanks to all of our great readers who participated in the Undies Award Poll and helped raise awareness -- and money -- for cervical cancer education.

The results are in, and they are just as exciting as we hoped. Push-up bras! G-strings! Surprisingly sexy boy shorts! And so many strapless bras! With all these sweet choices, it's a wonder celebs are ever caught without their skivvies. We're ready to run out and replace our entire underwear drawer.

Check out the gallery of winners, and visit Undies Award sponsors Her Room for prices and purchasing info.



Oh, and by the way, there's a Men's Undie Awards, too. You may want to browse those winners, maybe for Father's Day gift ideas...or maybe just to help pass the day...

As much as many of us claim to love thong panties, we'd have to say that the thing we love is the lack of visible panty lines -- it really has nothing to do with comfort. Over at Divine Caroline they have a great post on alternatives to the thong.

You know that moment right before you're about to have sex, when it occurs to you that your condoms are in your pants, which are halfway across the room? Bummer, right? Nothing kills the mood quite like: "Er, excuse me for a second, I need to go rummage for my condoms. Be right back!"

Fortunately some Swedish high school students have solved that problem, and invented a pair of underwear that has a sewn-in "condom pocket." The local government thought this idea was so ingenious that the boys were given a Young Enterprise award.

Of course, these sex-hungry Swedes aren't the first to have thought of adding a condom pouch to your skivvies. In fact both men and women have a wide variety of options to choose from.

Got your pantie in a bunch over the best foundation garments? Then go take the online poll at The Undies Awards and raise a little coin for cervical cancer education.

Due to the popularity and demand of extremely low-rise jeans, Sandra Tanimura, designer for Sanna's Brazil Fashion, has designed this uber-low (and uber-hideous) nod to one of the worst clothing trends to come about in recent years -- the whale tail.

Summertime is right around the corner. For those of us who still follow the old rules, that means White Season!

White shoes, white bags, white dresses, and most dangerously, white pants. So easy to ruin forever with blueberry pie, so hard to find a flattering fit.

Here are a few of simple rules to take the fear and anxiety out of wearing these most unforgiving garments:

1. Be skinny-skinny-skinny. Where black is slimming, white ahem creates a visual expansion. Particularly of one's posterior. If you're not super slim, you may want to back away from the idea right now.

What will you wear with your short shorts this summer? We can't all pull off the Kate Moss shorts and boots look, but we also don't want to get stuck in a boring, brown flip-flop rut.

If you happen to be exempt from the effects of our economy and have a cool $122,000 to spare, you might want to "invest" that cash in diamonds, and by diamonds, we mean a diamond-detailed thong.

At a lingerie fashion show in Singapore for Triumph International, two shirtless male models carried model Danielle Luminita down the runway on their shoulders. Danielle was showcasing a black lace thong with 518 brilliant-cut diamonds in a floral pattern. The total weight of the diamonds was 30 carats.

Of course, the 27 tassels made of white gold that were attached to the thong probably added to its value.

Thongs hanging out of the back of a girl's pants has become commonplace. Sure, high-waists are supposedly in style but a good old-fashioned pair of low-rise jeans never goes out of fashion. So, if you are going to show off your thong, better make sure it's a cute one.

The Smart Ass gals design humorous lingerie that any girl can enjoy. The great things about the Smart Ass thongs are that they are designed to fit a girl's, well, a woman's ass. This curve-friendly lingerie also stays where you want it to say, meaning no more extreme wedgies.

My personal favorite is the "gold digger" thong, but if you don't date on a pay scale like I do, there are plenty of other options out there. Some of those options include: the "it girl", "domestic diva", "natural blond", "bun in the oven", and "kiss my ... " Just to name a few.

There are dozens of cute little phrases on the backs of these comfortable thongs. Each thong is about $22 and, depending on the recipient's sense of humor, would make a pretty comical stocking stuffer.

It had been a couple days since she'd done anything really weird -- you know, like freaking out and stealing clothes during an OK magazine photo shoot, or strippin' down to her undies for a splash in the ocean -- so I guess Britney figured that it was time to pull out the goods.

And by "the goods," I of course mean her butt cheeks.

The pop-star turned mother-from-hell was spotted out and about Saturday night in this sheer black dress, which she complimented with a nice-and-obvious black thong and bra.

I used to wonder what motivated Britney Spears to do the things she does. But I've recently accepted that this would be impossible.

For the girl who has it all... personalized rhinestone thongs. Now you make your many men feel oh-so-special by having their name bedazzled on your undies....little do they know you have five other fellas with the same honor. Oh men, they think they are the only ones that can have a good time.

These panties aren't just for naughty girls, good girls can wear them as well. Instead of your main squeezes name how about the days of the week? Or "cutie" or "angel", anything will do really as long as they are eight characters or less. Of course, the badder the girl, the more money she needs, each pair will cost you $24 get them online at Shopintuition.com.

If you are looking for a pair of very sexy knickers that offer absolutely no utility, then I highly recommend Honeydew Intimates "Lace Ruffle Garter Thong." As the name suggests, these dainties pack a potent cocktail of hot stuff: garters, ruffles, sheer fabric, a thong.

The "Lace Ruffle Garter Thong" sells for $22 and comes in four different shades, which include white. However, I hesitate to suggest that anyone buy the white ones. Something about them reminds me of a Junior Miss Apple Festival contest, and I certainly hope that is not the look most grown women are going for.
