20 Classic Lingerie Styles Every Woman Should Own
Despite the fact that lingerie trends seem to be all the rage these days, I’ve somehow found myself utterly unable to relate. Whether it’s a bra trend, new thong style, or anything else really, if it strays too far outside the box of my classic favorites, it’s likely not to be for me.
Much like in my day-to-day fashion choices (aside from the rare exception), I like to stick to the simple things and figured some of you might too. So, today I’ve rounded up the best essential classic lingerie styles I think every woman should own regardless of their take on fads, but especially if, like me, they’re more trend-averse. From bra styles to underwear, to the fun part—extras—see and shop my picks in each category below.

It’s officially Libra season and as a true (and I mean true) Libra myself, there’s only been one thing on my mind—my birthday dress.

If you’re anything like me (which I’m assuming you are if you’re a Libra), checking the “birthday dress” task off your list of things to do will have you feeling 10 times less stressed. Because let’s be real, planning a birthday kind of throws a wrench in your balanced little life and that just won’t do.
Ahead, I have rounded up 20 dresses that were basically made to be the ultimate Libra birthday outfit.
