Wanna know a secret? The name of my blog wasn’t always The Lingerie Addict. Back in the day, I was called Stockings Addict, and my posts were all about stockings, tights, and hosiery in its various forms.
What changed? Well…I started spending more and more time looking at all kinds of lingerie and less and less time looking exclusively at stockings. After a few too many evenings on Figleaves and Bare Necessities, I realized what all of my close friends knew already…I was an incurable lingerie addict.
But even though the name of my blog is the lingerie addict, I know I’m not the only lingerie addict and so last week’s Q of the Week was all about discovering what makes you a lingerie addict too.
Take a look at what some of your fellow readers had to say on Twitter and Facebook, and, as always, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!

you know you are an addict when you change often every day according to you work or mood situation. Your bank statement will always confirm this lol.
When you read a blog called The Lingerie Addict, and are disappointed when it isn't updated every day. :)
when you plan your outergarment based on what you want to wear underneath
I love these quotes! I think I may be on the verge of becoming an addict because even though I don't have too much, I drool every time I see something I like xD
