Forget What You Heard: You Don't Need a Huge Budget to Have Beautiful Lingerie

Your lingerie might be hidden underneath your clothes, but it's still important to get the fit right. After all, your undergarments have a huge impact on how your clothes look (lest we forget about the dreaded VPL). Although, upgrading your underwear drawer can be expensive, especially when you can easily spend quite a few pounds on a new bra. But you don't need a huge budget to have beautiful lingerie. For example, Marks and Spencer is a high-street brand with an excellent underwear department. Another affordable retailer is & Other Stories, which creates beautiful matching sets that are almost always under £40. Want to see some lovely options?
