Lingerie Shopping 101: 14 Brands That Will Make You Look and Feel Like a Million Gold Coins

While I am a solid cotton underwear wearer through-and-through, there’s a part of me that cannot resist a great set of lingerie. Lacy underpinnings just make me feel luxurious, no matter who sees it.

I’m picky when it comes to lingerie comfort and style—no itches or bunchy lace for me—and figured you might be too, so I’ve compiled a list below of some great lingerie brands that fit the bill and offer a variety of sizes, colors and styles for those days when you want to play dress-up with your undergarments.

1. CUUP

Bra sizes A-H, bottom sizes XS-XL

CUUP makes beautiful bras in sizes ranging from A-H. One major highlight I’ve found: the Balconette style’s mesh cups and opaque seam. It looks elegant but sexy. I’d pair it with a brief in a matching color to make this lingerie set an outfit.

2. Lonely Label

Bra sizes A-G, bottom sizes XS-XL

Lonely Label has been my favorite lingerie brand for years: their lace is so soft and comes in a variety of colors like Soot, Sorbet, Lemonade and Biscotti. The brand makes cup sizes A-G (check out their website for full style and sizing options) in countless rich hues. I’m a fan of this Tamarillo red set—I own the same set in Pickle green and highly recommend the style. The colors are so fun that I opt to wear my bra with the straps sticking out under a tank top.

3. Savage x Fenty

Bra sizes A-H, bralette sizes XS-3X, bottom sizes XS-3X

Looking for lingerie that’s both super-sexy and fun? Make a beeline for Savage x Fenty, which sits squarely in the middle of that rare Venn diagram. They fit sizes XS-3X and my favorite style, the Cotton Essentials Bralette in a lavender floral print, is 95% cotton (read: very comfortable and soft). Pair it with the matching thong and have yourself a lovely little lingerie set.

4. Natori

Bra sizes A-H, bralette sizes XS-XL, bottom sizes XS-XL

I’ve always thought of Natori as a luxurious lingerie brand at quite a reasonable price for its high quality. The below bra is $68, comes in four colors (three of which are lined with another color, making them a very pretty two-tone), and cup sizes A-H. I’ll pair this bra with the matching tanga bottoms, a cheeky hybrid between a thong and a brief.

5. Love Stories

Bralette sizes 1-3, bottom sizes 1-5

If you’re in the market for a bralette, might I suggest Love Stories? They design the most delicate, pretty bras for smaller chest sizes with fun detailing like this glitter Emmy bra with the ruffle straps (and matching briefs).

6. ThirdLove

Bra sizes A-I, bottom sizes XS-3X

ThirdLove makes bra shopping a little less overwhelming with their nifty Fit Finder and cup sizes ranging from A-I. I love their sexy-yet-functional styles, like this 24/7 Lace Balconette Bra made with ultra-thin memory foam cups. Functional doesn’t have to be limiting—you could go all out and opt for the marigold colorway. Pair it with a cheeky pair of underwear for that glow-worm glow.

7. Eberjey

Bra sizes A-D, bralette sizes XS-XL, bottom sizes XS-XL

Eberjey’s been around for over twenty years for good reason! For barely-there lingerie, you could fall asleep in sizing from S-L (they do go up to XL and have cup sizes A-D on their site).

8. Araks

Bra sizes A-D, bralette sizes XS-L, bottom sizes XS-XL

I saw some of their colorblocked bras on Instagram a while back and went rooting around like a squirrel in search of an acorn, trying to find out the brand behind the bras. Eureka, it was Araks! The brand makes a ton of styles in different colors, sizing from XS-XL, but I strongly recommend these incredibly cool color block styles that would honestly be a bummer to cover up with clothes.

9. Underthing

Sizes S-L

I recently came across Underthing and was excited to see a full set for $34.99 (and three of their four available sets happen to be under $35)! This particular one comes in sizes S-L, but they also offer sets that come in number sizing 1-5. I also love that this style is a delicate white lace and comes with a thong, so you don’t have to worry about all the usual factors, like which bottoms come in which color and if the lace matches up, etc. etc. The brand did that work for you.

See All 1

10. Tove

Bra sizes S-L, bottom sizes S-L

I felt compelled to include Tove as a luxury option (the bra is $113 and the underwear is $73, both of which come in sizes S-L) because this delicate crinkle silk bra and underwear looks like the lingerie version of a strawberry macaron. This is the sort of lingerie you buy to wear truly as an outfit (the underwear is literally called the “Seren Pant”) around the privacy of your own home, perhaps with a robe and a newspaper.

11. Baserange

Bralette sizes XS-L, bottom sizes XS-L

Another non-lace option for those who want to be fancy but not too frilly, check out Baserange’s sustainable collection of velour. The brand makes one set that has a triangle bralette with matching high-waisted or regular-rise bottoms (with some colorways on sale). Like Tove, this is a set I will certainly be wearing around my apartment as a home ‘fit but this time, I will be drinking a margarita and eating zesty flavored potato chips (perhaps homemade ones!).

12. Elomi

Bra sizes DD-J, bottom sizes M-4X

For those who wear sizes DD-J bras, Elomi is a highly-rated contender. I love this beautiful white lace bra that has side support and optional matching high-cut briefs. Reviews on Bare Necessities reveal that customers love their Elomi bra so much—from the side support to the underwire that lays perfectly flat to the general security—that they went back and bought more.

See All 2

13. Chantelle

Bra sizes A-I, bottom sizes XXS-5XL

Another popular brand for people with larger busts is Chantelle, a brand offering delicate lace in both lined and unlined bra options. These bras skew a bit pricier, with bras up to $115. Chantelle’s bras are designed in France and are famed for offering a natural lift without added padding for longwear comfort. I personally think that the “Champs Elysées Bra”—which boasts a 5 start review—lives up to the fanciness of its name.

See All 2

14. Hanky Panky

Bra sizes A-D, bralette sizes XS-3X, bottom sizes XS-3X

There is no world in which I write a lingerie round-up and leave out my longtime favorite, Hanky Panky. Those rolled thongs were like candy that I hid from my mother as a teenager (true story). I personally own their Signature Lace Crossover bralette and matching thong which comes in sizes XS-M and new, bright colorways I didn’t know existed. I just became acquainted with their Retro Lace Bralette which looks like it may be a little more comfortable, with less of a drop down under the cups. It comes in XS-L and matching high-rise Retro “V-kini” because, as you can probably tell by now, I love a full lingerie ensemble.

What I’m Loving Lately 106

New Post has been published on http://foursprout.com/health/what-im-loving-lately-106/

What I’m Loving Lately 106

Hi, guys!

Woah. What a whirlwind week. I feel like it was crawling by so slowly, but now it’s Friday. I feel like Wednesday and Thursday happened in a flash!

Mal is on April break next week, so we’re kicking it off with a little happy hour action before we pick up Quinn from school this afternoon. We’re both heading out of town for trips to Atlanta – me this weekend, him next weekend – but other than that, we don’t have much planned for his vacation. I’m usually antsy to do something when Mal is off from school, but I’m very much going to embrace some downtime with my family next week.

So, it’s Friday and you know what that means: It’s time for the next edition of What I’m Loving Lately!

Our new Berkey Water Filter – We seriously couldn’t have been more excited when this thing arrived in the mail. We spent weeks and weeks researching the best water filters because we were pretty specific about what we wanted. We didn’t want a pitcher filter (like a Brita) or one that attached to our sink because we’d need to get a whole new faucet and we just didn’t want to replace it. There actually aren’t a ton of stand-alone water filters on the market, so we had a little trouble finding quality options…. until I crowd-sourced on Instagram Stories for recommendations. And, guys, I can’t even tell you how many people (enthusiastically) responded about the Berkey. I must have received close to 100 messages from Berkey fans! After such a positive response, I knew which one we needed to get. We ended up getting the Big Berkey, which holds 2.25 gallons of water and so far it’s been great. It was easy to set up, and you only have to replace the filters every 6 months, so it’s pretty low-maintenance. Our water tastes delicious, and Quinn is obsessed with the Berkey because he can serve himself whenever he wants. And, my gosh, he’s drank a lot of water lately – maybe too much! 😉

Foods for Hormone Balance With Magdalena Wszelaki– Great episode from the Wellness Mama podcast about hormones, including some helpful info about seed cycling and a Guide to Seed Rotation for Hormone Balance. Now, I really want to grow broccoli sprouts and buy Magdalena’s Cooking for Hormone Balance book! It seems like there are some really awesome recipes inside. Need!

Natori True Natori T-Shirt Convertible Underwire Bra – I already own this bra in both black and cashmere. I love them so much, I just bought a couple more for spring/summer from Zappos to add to my collection. There’s free shipping both ways, which means you can try the bra on at home and send it back if it doesn’t fit!

Protein Chia Pudding – I’m obsessed! I think I ate this just about every day this week. It’s so easy to make and absolutely delicious! 🙂

Veggies and cottage cheese – Another new favorite snack – veggies dipped into cottage cheese! Nutritious, delicious, and super satisfying!

Allbirds shoes – Have you guys heard about these? I feel like I am so out of the loop, but I definitely need a pair in my life. My friend Lucie was raving about them the other day, so I looked them up online: LOVE THEM! Allbirds makes both women’s and men’s shoes, and Mal’s birthday is actually next month, so I’m thinking about buying him this pair.

Mediterranean Polenta Cups – These look delicious, nutritious, and easy to make!

Question of the Day

What’s up for the weekend?

I’m off to Atlanta for a hormone certification. I seriously can’t wait!!

P.S. Kristin from Thrive by Food is offering CNC readers $50 off the price of her Love Your Gut program, which is an intensive 12-week program designed to help you address digestive issues naturally. Just use promo code TINA50.
