A student has explained how selling her used underwear online helps to pay her student fees.

The 21-year-old buys the underwear in bulk for a few quid a pair and can sell them for about £90 a pair.

The amount she charges depends on how long she's been wearing them for, and buyers can also pay more to get selfies of her wearing them.

The New York University student, who sells on uses Craigslist, told Glamour she got into the unusual field while she was working as a web cam girl.

Viewers used to bid on the underwear she wore during the show and she would simply pop it in the post.


She said: "To be honest, selling my underwear has made me feel really empowered because I'm in control of my body.

"It feels really awesome to be able to provide a healthy outlet for people with these fetishes.

"I never feel like I'm in danger."

Sometimes she offers extra services to customers, and once made £380 by letting a man smell her armpits.

She said: "After one of my regular underwear clients opened up to me about his armpit fetish, I made an extra $500 bucks by allowing him to smell my armpit. We met up and I was pretty much fully clothed, and I just let him smell it for like 15 minutes."

As well as her studies and underwear sales, the woman works as a waitress and does dog walking and she brings in a total of $40,000 a year, which is about £30,000.
