OK so maybe we were a bit hasty about the death of the thong yesterday. No sooner had we written it off than fashion goddess Nicole Kidman (pictured here with Delta Goodrem) was snapped revealing her undies in a see-through lace dress.

Halle Berry has ditched her thongs for Bridget Jones style big pants now that she is four months pregnant, says Channel 4 news. And she's not the only one. Kiwi women are abandoning their g-strings, reports the New Zealand Herald. The skimpy style now accounts for only 5 per cent of the market.
Here's Paris Hilton working an interesting look: sort of the Tudors meets Dita Von Teese. The osoyou blog was not impressed, but it does at least prove that stockings and suspenders are indeed a trend. Fancy having a go? Find stockings here; suspenders here.
A couple of great new brands freshly arrived on the UK site to tell you about today. Above left, Frilly Intimates is a young fashion brand in DD+ sizes from the people behind Panache - so you can guarantee a good fit along with the on-trend colours. Bras from £18, briefs from £8. And on the right is the first lingerie collection from Karen Millen - an upper-end-of-the-high-street favourite (always good if you're stuck for something to wear for a wedding, I find). Glam styles include this silk animal print set, bra £34, g-string £16.
Shop Frilly Intimates; shop Karen Millen.
"Indulge yourself with the most gorgeous of undies," says Woman & Home this month, reminding us that "it's what's on the inside that counts." Included in its very pretty bras page is this lace trimmed Pleasure State Rosita bra, £36.

Let's catch up with some international underwear news.
These two beautiful people on the left are Noel Watson and Yolande Elliot, winners of the UK part of Sloggi's search for the world's most beautiful bottom. Can't really tell what their bottoms look like from this pic to be honest, but I am sure they will do us proud at the international final on 31 October in Munich.
Bit of a travelling essential, a sleep mask - so here's Mary Green in November's Conde Nast Traveler. This one says "Wake Me for Lunch" and is part of a set of three (the others say "Wake Me for Breakfast" and "Wake Me for Dinner"), $48.
