The weather is beginning to get chilly and soon there will be Christmas Carols everywhere. With the holidays coming in just few weeks, we will once again have the opportunity to shop at great discounts this coming Thanksgiving and Black Friday. If you’re a lingerie lover like me, I’m sure you’re already dreaming of adding something new in your intimate apparel collection and buying new pieces to fit your fall to winter outfit.
But before we even go shopping, let us first make sure that we have enough room in our lingerie drawer for more thongs, bra sets, bikinis or babydolls. You know we can’t keep on adding new piece without saying goodbye to some, right? So as we wait for the coming of the greatest shopping holiday, let me help you go tackle your lingerie dilemma and finally decide which ones should stay and which ones should go.
Intimate apparels have different shelf life based on their brands, the way your care for them and the frequency of use. If you have a large collection, there’s a good chance that most of your luxury lingerie has been untouched in the last few months. However, that doesn’t mean you got to keep them all. Take some time to go through your lingerie and sort it out for more organized drawer.
Here are some questions to help you in your dilemma.
Bras
• Is your ban or straps already stretched out? Does it slide off your shoulder despite adjustment?
• Does the cup already lose its shape? Does it fail to give you good silhouette when worn underneath tight clothing?
• Is the wire already warped or protruding? Does it make you feel uncomfortable in anyway?
• Is the color of your bra already faded or rough? Does it have stains that seem irremovable?
Panties
• Does it have holes on the lining or other parts?
• Does it have stubborn stains that can’t be removed?
• Is the waistband or leg opening too tight or too lose?
• Is there any lose thread or broken stitching?
Babydolls and night gowns
• Does it feel a little too tight or too lose in some areas?
• Is the lace or embellishment already broken or run-down?
• Does it have any holes?
Throwing away some of your lingerie can be extremely daunting. But if you no longer have enough room for your lingerie collection, you really have to say goodbye to the old ones and welcome new pieces in your collection.
Women’s body changes with age. Even our lifestyle impacts our body shape and lingerie size. If you have increased your weight due to pregnancy or lose some pounds after rigorous workout, make sure to rethink your lingerie collection and only wear the size that fits your body properly.
Now that you have said goodbye to some of your intimate apparels, you can now visit a nearby lingerie store or go to your favorite online shop to get new styles for this coming season.
