Every year, the second January rolls in we begin to see pink and red hearts and cupids pop up in store fronts, usually accompanied by stuffed animals and boxes of chocolate. Forget the sentimental knick-knacks and fatty goods this year and instead opt for a sexy little number to surprise that special someone. These Atlanta lingerie shops make finding the right look a breeze, just pick up a few candles and a little bubbly, and your Valentines night is all set.
The Blue Corset Company
For a wide selection of upscale brands, look no further than The Blue Corset Company. Located on the lower level of Lenox Square next to Neiman Marcus, this dimly lit; boudoir-style boutique is the answer for those looking for luxury lingerie options galore. Softly draped curtains and brocade chairs lend a pleasantly intimate feel without being too stuffy; really, the perfect atmosphere to make you feel relaxed and sexy.
Oh! Fine Lingerie
This little gem tucked away around Peachtree Battle is absolute paradise for those looking for unique, “wow” pieces. Actually a thrilling vintage store – think couture Dior and Yves Saint Laurent – the lingerie is intimately tucked away in the back behind sequined show-stopping ball gowns and delicious furs. Whether you fancy sweet and feminine touches or are more the Agent Provocateur type, Oh! no doubt has the perfect Valentine’s Day stunner you’re looking for.
Lingerie Mart Corporation
If you are looking for a huge selection for everything from bras to sleepwear to sexy costumes, Lingerie Mart is your go to spot. While it is a bit of a hike from Midtown, the trip is definitely worth it for the incredible deals you’ll score (we found bras as low as $5), as well as sizes ranging from 28A up through G. Bring a few friends and spend some time combing the rows of racks, you won’t leave disappointed.
Intimacy of Atlanta
One of the biggest problems most women struggle with is finding the right bra size. Many of us think we know what size is right, but chances are if you haven’t had a professional fitting, you’re probably a bit off. Head over to Intimacy of Atlanta for a complimentary customized fitting and say goodbye to uncomfortable, ill-fitting bras for good. Our only suggestion: this popular store tends to fill up quickly, so book and appointment ahead of time to avoid waiting in a string of walk-ins.
Moon Lingerie
770.220.3044
If you’re looking for a bargain but still want a wide selection to choose from, then stop by Moon Lingerie. Tucked away along Buford Highway, this modest warehouse carries everything from basic undergarments, costumes, leggings and tights, to even a few things for a special guy in your life. The surrounding area is also great to grab a bite to eat after, with family owned authentic Mexican, Spanish and Asian eateries on every corner.
Of course, there are always the old standbys we’ve all loved for years such as Victoria’s Secret, Frederick’s of Hollywood, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, Macys and Neiman Marcus. They all offer wide selections of popular brands and styles, but you do miss out a bit on the special treatment you receive in smaller, specialty shops.
