<a href="https://nicolemclaughlin.com/">Nicole McLaughlin</a> has become famous for her approach to art that began just as a hobby. She upcycled various old materials, giving them new life and new purposes a clothing. Often, these items of clothing serve practical purposes, especially as cargo carriers. What she defines as practical, though may differ from your conception.<a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CVnuZuZldd9/" class="on">Recently, she showed off her panties on Instagram.</a> McLaughlin converted a Jansport backpack—an icon of American school culture—into a panty that still carries all of the supplies needed.

Going for a swim? You'll be able to see more clearly once you detach these googles. And perhaps you'll be safer if you inflate the floaty that serves as the front panel to this bikini.

McLaughlin is a working artist, so she needs to keep her equipment close at hand. What better garment for this work than this toolbelt?

This cheeky design is what McLaughlin wore beneath <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ZllO0luaF/" class="on">her gummy bear shorts</a>.#NicoleMcLaughlin #panties
