Traditionally, when you think of lingerie, you think of lacy, frilly underthings from Victoria’s Secret. But these days, lingerie has evolved from extreme push-up bras and bedazzled G-strings to effortless bralettes and high-waisted undies with mesh panels.
And to be honest, as much as we respect the women who look up to the VS Angels (hey, we wanted to be one at some point in our lives too!), we’re all for this cool girl lingerie that’s not only sexy, but also comfy (seriously cotton briefs > a lace thong any day).
So, just in time for Valentine’s Day, we’ve rounded up some alternative lingerie picks that’ll satisfy your inner cool girl.
1. Mary Young Logan Bra, $76 + High Waist Thong, $55.
Canadian designer Mary Young is known for her “cool girl” lingerie that’s as comfortable as it is sexy. We’re into this mismatched combo, especially with its mesh panels.
2. COS Soft Mesh Bra, $35 and Knickers, $22.
No fuss, no frills — just simple, sexy black mesh.
3. For Love And Lemons Lucienne Triangle Bra, $108 + Hi-Waist Panty, $108.
Equal parts flirty and racy, this satin and chiffon set is perfectly for lounging around the house in.
4. River Island Sheer Mesh Body, $29.92.
Sure this bodysuit is sexy on its own, but it also makes for a great layering piece under your fave basics.
5. Fleur du Mal Jeweled Triangle Bra, $89 + Panty, $26.
If your lingerie collection consists mostly of lace bralettes, switch things up with this jeweled triangle bra and matching panty.
