Take Bridal Shower Lingerie to a New, Beautiful Level

We've all been there: the bridal shower where the Mrs.-to-be in question opens gift after gift of cheap lingerie that's either embarrassingly scandalous (hey, Mom's in the room after all!), poorly constructed or feels like sandpaper. At a time where we're all starting to contemplate the cost/benefit analysis of consuming fast fashion, it makes sense to gift something with staying power, something that says "I think you're really special and you deserve something as lovely as you are."

I started Honey Cooler Handmade partly because I felt that lingerie with fine yet hardy embellishment was difficult to find. Delicacy and strength CAN go hand in hand, so this wedding season, why not gift both? If she's into versatility, a Deco Cami is a perfect gift. It can easily be worn in the boudoir or paired with skinny jeans for a night out. Want to go a bit sexier? The Deco Bralette's cheeky sheer heart appliqués are sure to make an impact. If her style is all about simplicity and comfort, the Cotillion Chemise and matching Knickers are at once sexy and undeniably cozy.

When you gift Honey Cooler Handmade lingerie, you let her know that she's special enough for the best.
