My mother freaking over a question.
Hi, My mom is 100% careless, she gets me whatever i want, like anything, but i asked her tonight "Can i go to victorias secret to get bras and underwears?" she was like, THATS FUC*ING INSANE! I dont even wear that?! You'll get it when i start!" and shes 46, my sister, whom is 19.. turning 20 in january, she gets it with my MOMS CREDIT CARD! its redicilous! All of my friends wear their bras, but of corse, mine are from like, target, and the rest of my clothing is from abercrombie, it doesnt make sence! HOW CAN I TELL HER I DESERVE STUFF FROM THAT STORE!? and i already have underwear from there, my mom gave me her credit card when i was on a school trip in washington DC. and i got stuff in the mall, its pissing me off!
* what can i do to prove to her that i should be allowed to wear it?
* why do you think she wont let me?
* she wants my father to pay for it, just like everything else.

I really don't understand why you need designer underwear. Who's going to see it? And if anybody IS going to be seeing it...well, if you're younger than your sister, you're probably too young to be doing that kind of stuff anyway. And if the reason you want it is just to say you have it...that's a little selfish, don't ya think?
I think you're the one who's definitely overreacting here. Who cares where your underwear is from?
If you really want it from there, just tell your mom you're willing to buy it with your own money. You should already be doing that for the rest of your clothes anyway.
Hope this cleared some things up. Just my opinion, by the way.

I can understand your frustration because I was once a brat who thought everything was owed to me. The truth is - you don't deserve anything from that store unless you are paying it for yourself with your own money. Your mom works for her money & atleast gives you money to buy a bra. There are some people out there who cannot afford anything for their kids. If you are truly in need of bras & panties, you will get what your mother buys you. & if you have a problem with that, look for a job that will give you the money to let you afford that. Why do I think she won't let you go to Victoria's Secret? Although it's nice to be able to buy stuff from Victoria's Secret, you do not NEED it. & if my daughter demanded something like that from me, that's the last thing she would be getting. In the meantime, you can hate the world that you aren't able to get what you want. But when you are a mature, young adult you will learn to work for your own things & appreciate the things you ARE able to get.

I know you're probably going to rate me a 1 because you are angry with the world [yes, i was 14 once], but i'll give you the info on victoria's secret stuff.
i get all of my underwear from there. it's comfy, i love it and my mom never had a problem with it.
however, i have bought bras from there once and they honestly SUCK. i'm not telling you this to make you feel better or to ruin your dreams of a VS bra. one of the push ups was so bad... it wasnt supportive enough and you could see the line where the padding was... absolutely awful. so i ran to kohls and got one from mudd and i wear it all the time. honestly, VS ist the most amazing store in the world. if you want good bras that are AMAZING, go to american eagle. i'm angry at myself for not thinking of it before. i got an amazinnggg push up there for $11.95. i know you want clothes that are grown up and mature but you can find those somewhere else. they make thongs and skimpy lingere everywhere, i promise. be original. i went to a local discount store and got a cutecutecute playboy thong. it's onestly the cutest thing i own and one of my friends went and got one for herself. chill out, everything will be OK. <3

I can understand your frustration, but really, don't get worked up over it.
Perhaps your mum doesn't want to waste alot of money on products you will probably out grow, because lets face it - their bras etc are quite expensive and to be honest, aren't all that good quality.
It's different for your sister because she's an adult now and won't need to keep wasting more money as she grows.
Will she let you pay with your OWN money? Ask her.
If not - and you really have your heart set on buying them, tell her the ones you already have are so much more comfortable and you feel better wearing them.
I'm not saying lying is good here, but make it seem like they give you more confidence etc..
Because it's a pretty pointless subject to get upset and cause arguments over.
and if she still says no, suck it up and be mature about it. Act like you don't care. Maybe then she will actually think about letting you get them.

A lot of my friends dress in Abercrombie, and get their bras at Target, Kmart, Khol's: department stores, basicly. Do you want to know why? Their breasts still have chances of developing, and there is no point in buying an expensive bra that they are going to outgrow. Second, no one is going to see your bra, well, maybe the bra straps, and they won't be able to tell where you got your bra just by lookig at the straps. Third, Target has very cute bras, along with other departmnet stores. Don't think that because that store isn't really for rich people that it doesn't sell nice things.
As for the underwear. Victoria's secret is a store for sexually active (lol, I guess you never noticed the crotchless underwear lying in the drawers next to the cute panties. But your mom sure has!) women. Again, their are hundreds of stores that sell adorable underwear.
Give your parents a break paying for everything. If you really want stuff from Victoria's Secret so bad, why not save up some money? Or if you don't have a job, get one! After you have enough money (of YOUR own money) you will seem so much more responsible, and a lot more deserving to shop at that store. If your mom still says no, then she probably thinks you are too young to shop at that store, instead of it being a money issue.

Victoria secret is just expensive underwear its nothing grate. and maybe she thinks your to young or maybe she thinks that store is not appropriate.
but i suppose if you rely want it then you could ask for it agen and try to talk it out with her, or your dad hoo ever is paying for it, simply state your case and respect there answer!!! it may not be the answer you want but by showing you respect them and there disquisition they may consider it over agen.but DON'T STORM OFF it shows that your imacher and don't respect anything they say

ok so first of all...if you want real answers to a question...don't act like a spoiled brat "I DESERVE STUFF FROM THAT STORE" not with your attitude you don't...you can't prove anything to her...she probably just thinks your too young...and if your father pays for it he pays for it big deal...chances are your friends don't even get all of their bras from Victoria's Secret...they might have one or two...but thats it...and it makes perfect sense that your clothes come from nice places and your bras from target...just get a cute bra at target...no one is going to know the difference unless you point it out to them. I get everything I want too...but I don't go off on some rampage like a spoiled brat...you can't always get what you want...thats life.
*edit* I understand that you think I'm rude but it's just the truth...quit acting like a spoiled brat and grow up...you think your so wonderful...get over yourself...you're not as amazing as you think you are...you're probably 15 tops...your sister is an adult...she can do whatever she wants...seriously...quit acting like your so cool and special and stop acting like a nasty little spoiled bitch...I'm glad your mom isn't buying it for you...you don't deserve anything with your attitude...and take some constructive criticism...you go all bitchy on us just because we don't think your as awesome as you do.
