I am 14/f and i really want some pretty bras and underwear. the pretty fancy kind. mine r just regular and plain. my friends all have pretty ones too and i would just be really happy if i could have some. i also have a boyfriend tho and i dont want them for him-im not taking him anywhere right now haha so i dont want my mom getting the wrong idea plus i just dont know how in the world to tell her. and i want ones like from Victoria's Secret but my mom might think it innapropriate and uneccesary for a 14 yr old girl to shop there. Anywhere else i could go? Sometimes i get cute ones from Kohl's but most of the time my mom gets some for me. I need a bigger cup anyway tho so we are probably going to go buy some. i just need to know what to say. thanx so much :]

Seriously, it's not as hard as it might sound. There's nothing wrong with wanting to wear something cute under your clothes, regardless of age/relationship status/what you've worn before. Still get some regular underwear though.. certain times of the month you may not want to wear your best pair. If you get what I mean.
And yes, Kohl's has lots of cute stuff, especially the new-ish Candie's line. Also try Delia's, american eagle, and Victoria's Secret. If you're concerned about what your mom might think/say, go in there with the goal of trying out a perfume, and then look at underwear and such. Plus, if you have the need for a convertible bra, or a really discreet one for a certain shirt, Victoria's Secret is the best place to go. All are very convincing arguments. If all else fails, buy what you want when you're shopping with friends.
