When’s the last time you really looked at your underwear drawer? If you’re hanging on to stretched-out bras or panties that don’t feel great, it might be time for a refresh. Here's how to know when it’s time - and how to rebuild a drawer that actually works for your body and style.
1. Check for Signs of Wear
If the elastic is loose, fabric is pilling, or the bra cups have lost shape, it’s time to let go. Underwear that no longer supports or feels good isn’t doing its job.
2. Reassess Your Size
Bodies change - whether from life stages, weight shifts, or just natural variation. Get remeasured or use a bra fit guide to ensure you’re still wearing the right size.
3. Build a Base of Essentials
Stock up on your go-to pieces: seamless microfiber panties, a supportive everyday bra, a comfy bralette for weekends, and period-proof underwear if needed.
4. Mix in Seasonal or Special Styles
Add variety with lace, mesh, or high-waisted cuts you love. Think of your drawer like your closet - basics with personality.
5. Rotate Regularly
Give your underwear some breathing room. Rotating your bras and panties extends their life and keeps you feeling fresh every day.
