Best Lingerie Must-Haves for the Holiday

Last week we reminded you that Christmas was only 3 weeks away, and this week we have to decrease that number further. Yes, you now have only 15 shopping days until Christmas. So, Secret Drawers Lingerie is here to help. Today we present the holiday must-haves in the lingerie world (and check out our Best Gifts for Curvy Women as well).

1. Chemises by Mary Green

Mary Green makes must-have items all year long but at this time of year it's clear how perfect they are to pop into someone's stocking. Often 100% silk, these lace-adorned pieces will certainly put the fa, la, la into your holiday this season.

2. Spanx

Don't let Hollywood's little secret slip by, instead, wiggle into a pair of Spanx to minimize the tummy, back, bottom and even upper leg. It's what all the stars are wearing on the red carpet and it's what you should be wearing to your holiday fêtes as well for a smooth, sleek silhouette.


3. Pajamas and Robes

These two are perennial favorites at this time of year so shop now to get the sizing and selection you want. We've got several lines of robes including Canadian-made Diamond Tea and we carry several lines of pajamas (in both flannel and cotton) including BedHead. These are the perfect thing to wear Christmas morning.

4. Hanky Panky

The colours and varieties of Hanky Panky are endless but in addition to the thong, low-rise thong, retro thong and chemise, we are also carrying the perfect sleepwear set in a red that will brightly accentuate any Christmas tree. Also check out the Enchantment pieces, including a bralette that is perfect for the smaller-bosomed woman.


5. Silk Underthings

If you're headed up to the ski slope, a must-have for you is insulation, and nothing wicks away moisture while keeping you cozy like 100% silk. We've got silk long johns, tops, camisoles and vests.

6. A Man on the List? Get Him Naked

Naked is not just any underwear for men. These are underwear that use the finest Italian microfiber, an invisible waistband, flat-lock stitching and seamless construction for the ultimate in comfort. Naked is also eco-friendly and ethically made in Canada, which should warm your heart on these colder days.


Not Sure of her Size?

No problem. If she's been in before we probably have a client card started for her that lists what she has purchased and the size. We're happy to help you figure out the rest from there.


Can't Decide?

No problem, Secret Drawers Lingerie gift certificates are the ones that will make her eyes light up Christmas morning.

The Avero - in Blue Bijou

The Marie Jo Avero is one of our best-selling bras - so much so, we've kept it in stock for years. You'll know the Avero from its classic tone-on-tone, checkered pattern on the cup and a striking, flowered strap. These are the straps you want to let slip out from your neckline.

This season we've brought in the Avero by Marie Jo in the fashion colour bleu bijou. And Marie Jo has kicked the design up a notch by adding rhinestones to the center of each flower on the straps.

The Avero is a seamless, underwire cup, which is one of the reasons it's so popular - it provides a smooth look under even thin fabrics. It's a formed cup, but it's not padded. The result is great support and gorgeous, round breasts.

Find this timeless and yet modern look in sizes 32-38, cups A-D.
