If you aren’t familiar with our series You Asked, We Answered, it’s our way of being your personal shopper. So if you don’t know what to buy for your best friend’s sister’s bridal shower, want Sambas but need to find a cheaper lookalike, or your paycheck just hit and you feel like splurging, follow @skimmshopping to submit questions, get product recs, and find out about weekly sales. We’ll be back on Tuesday with editor-backed answers.

And because we’d never steer you in the wrong direction, we feel that it’s our duty to tell you that these are some of the softest, undetectable bras we’ve ever worn.
