Latin: the classic language suffered an untimely death. Today, it’s rarely seen outside scholastic archives and dorm rooms.

But before its demise,
the original romance language graced the poetry of the masters. And now it can be found on yet another sacred ground: your bum.

With Latin Proverb Underwear, you’ll look not only sexy but snarky (and educated!) sporting phrases like noli me tangere (don’t touch me) or nuda veritas (the naked truth) on your derriere. The hand-embroidered undies (made by American Apparel) come in white, blue, pink, and violet.

Ditching your man? Send him off with a parting gift. The Ex-Boyfriend Pack includes memento mori (remember that you must die); the Idiot Ex-Boyfriend Pack features mendacem memorem esse oportet (a liar needs a good memory).

Or maybe you should just get both. Carpe diem.
