We’ve featured Else Lingerie a time or two on the blog before. Unlike many of the labels we share, I wouldn’t call Else Lingerie an especially cutting edge or avant-garde brand. If anything, they’ve gotten more commercial over the last couple of years (check out this chevron set and this chevron set to see why I fell in love with them several seasons ago).

Budding indie designer Vanessa Anissa has released a new collection under her own label Alexandrea Anissa, and it does not disappoint. Titled “Ramona,” this new range is all about strappy details, harnesses, and black mesh.

This entire collection […]
Since first appearing on the lingerie scene back in 2010, Sarah Norwood, the founder and designer behind Ohhh Lulu, has become a darling of indie design lovers everywhere. Her unfussy, uncomplicated pieces are sweet, simple, and oh so romantic. Ohhh Lulu’s bra and panty sets cross over into loungewear and manage to be effortless and beautiful all at the same time. Norwood’s new Spring/Summer 2014 collection is gorgeous. It’s sometimes […]
