A devoted undergoodie Lover recently told a story that's stayed with me. She'd put on a tight, structured outfit that just didn't feel right in the moment - we all you know this feeling - and she changed into an easy, beautiful outfit built around the comfort of undergoodies. She called this a "big exhale."

I've made this change so many times. And I've received some of my favorite compliments on those very (second) outfits — the ones built around comfort — including the observation that the clothes / I looked so comfortable. Palpable, contagious comfort is pretty fantastic goal, come to think of it that way.

We Love giving you reasons and moments to exhale. 

your closet is full of good things 

That dress you Loved and snapped up on your girls trip that now seems a bit short to wear anywhere. The dress that clings. The favorite statement tee you'd love to dress up but can't quite get there. The outfit that feels meh and needs ... something.

undergoodies are wonderful as cool, quick-dry underthings — and with our focus on style, they are so much more. The list of solutions I've seen them be for our customers is already approaching infinity. Here are just a few: 

• A Jasmine adds a few inches of stunning lace to make that too-short dress not only wearable, but also more special
• A Pearl — panty and slip in one — makes that short dress a sassy option. You'll be covered in style and almost hoping for the wind to catch your skirt
• A pair of Sugar or Honey slip shorts puts a smoothing, cling-busting layer between that dress and you — and as the weather cools, they layer adorably over tights in a way that is far more interesting than just... tights.
• A Jasmine or Pearl paired with your favorite tee takes that shirt into new statement territory, far beyond the usual bike shorts or jeans. High-low dressing at its most fun — and you get to exhale.

the best bang for your buck

My intention has always been for undergoodies to deliver big for your bucks. High comfort, long-lasting quality, easy, quick-dry care, conscientious manufacturing by a women-owned factory in Dallas.

A lagniappe I adore — that little something extra, as we say in New Orleans — is that undergoodies are an affordable, punchy way to breathe new life into the clothes you already own. A flash of shimmery, cheerful satin elevates an outfit in an instant without spending a lot more on something entirely new.

And the magic works the other way, too. undergoodies elevate budget finds and vintage scores into intentional, cohesive looks. The right layer underneath has a way of making everything feel like it belongs together, and fashionable details can punch above their weight (which is featherweight!).

my best advice is to play!

Think it might work? Try it. Not every idea will pan out — but try it. I'm continually surprised and thrilled by the undergoodies-to-the-rescue stories you share, the brilliant ways you complement the clothes you Love with them. And I sometimes pass out with joy when you build whole looks around them. 

Play in your closet. The clothes are already there, already paid for, already waiting. undergoodies will breathe in new life.

The best part, though, is when you exhale.
