Who doesn’t love an excuse to say no to pants? We couldn’t be more excited that National Underwear Day falls on August 5—one of the hottest times of the year in the United States.

In case you needed a national holiday to encourage walking around the house in your undies: This. Is. Your. Moment.

If you’re looking for ways to celebrate National Underwear Day, here are our favorite things to do to make this day feel as special as your lucky pair of panties.

7 Ways to Celebrate National Underwear Day

1. Throw a No Pants Party!

You saw this one coming, right? When temperatures are in the 90s and 100s across the country, pants seem awfully silly.

Underwear parties are all the rage in NYC (IYKYK), so why not throw your own?

This August 5, throw a No Pants Party with your most fun friends. Shed the clothes, put on an upbeat playlist, and dance around in your underwear all night long. You can even make themed cocktails and add props for extra frisky business.

5. Do a drawer overhaul

Out with the old to make room for the new.

We all have those pairs of underwear that have lived their lives and need to retire. Use National Underwear Day as your motivator to get rid of any tattered and old undergarments that are clogging up your intimates drawer.

What we wear—even undergarments—has a big effect on confidence. And nobody has ever felt unstoppably sexy in a pair of five-year-old, faded undies. It’s time to let go.

6. Cook and eat in your underwear

If you've never tried it, now is the time! This is a fun way to explore nudity with extremely low stakes.

The only danger is hot items cooking on the stove, so make sure to accessorize your cooking undies with an apron. Otherwise, enjoy the freedom of cooking and eating in your underwear!

Still hungry? For dessert, dig into underwear you can eat.
