End the Panty Line

Love Tanjane Lingerie

It’s a sad, often confusing truth of modern-day fashion: The whole category of lingerie has become completely muddled.

Things once considered undergarments regularly appear as outerwear. Closet organizing? A loss. And consumers all too easily fall prey to the sorts of faux pas that in some states get you arrested (see Lil’ Kim, Christina Aguilera).

Now here comes Love Tanjane to further confound the situation. The lovely line of boy shorts, thongs, bra-top camisoles, slips, drawstring pants, and tees will have you delightfully perplexed as to how and where to wear them. Solid-color, tie-dye, and lace-trim varieties are all made from soft rayon Lycra. And while the loungy feel seems to encourage home use, the sexy styling, flattering cuts, and adorable prints will make you desperate to show yourself off in public. Our two cents: The tops look nice layered under a cardigan or woolly sweater.

And anything that reveals your butt cheeks still belongs in the lingerie drawer.
