EDITOR'S NOTE
Getting deeply personal here (what’s new), but as I was trying on wedding dresses a couple weeks ago, I was shockingly, continuously complimented by bridal stylists on the underwear I was wearing. Ahead of my appointments, I bought a few pairs of this nude, seamless brief from Spanx. With light compression, ample coverage, and no seams, they really are that good. If you have an event coming up and don’t want visible panty lines, these are a fantastic non-thong option.

Mango has so many good bags right now
Most styles are under $100.
It feels like the only question our team is asking these days is: “when did things get so damn expensive?” After doing some internet sleuthing, our editor discovered that Mango, the Zara-esque brand from Spain, has some really good bags right now. So if you’re looking for stylish, on-trend options under $100, definitely shop the brand ahead of the holidays (as styles tend to rotate and sell out quickly). Some standouts: this $60 tote and this holiday party-friendly shoulder bag.
