Just as it is for many people, my relationship with denim is complicated. I’ve found jeans I loved, but none without flaws. I resonated deeply with the recent conversation around standing jeans on TikTok. I’ve always accepted that I have standing jeans that look great on, but are too tight for all-day sitting. And then oppositely, I have sitting jeans that I’m not obsessed with style-wise, but that are actually comfortable enough to sit in for hours on end. However, a new pair of jeans from The Consistency Project (TCP) completely reframed my thinking around the two categories. In short, sitting jeans can be just as fashion-forward while still maintaining their comfort levels. (Also, I now simply call them jeans.)

Shopping for comfortable lingerie can be such a personal experience. Only you know what exactly makes you feel sexy and works for your body type — and oftentimes, it doesn’t even have anything to do with what’s being displayed on the mannequin. There’s arguably no better feeling than finding that perfect silk night gown, comfy lingerie piece, or even lace underwear style that you can effortlessly slip into come nighttime (or really any time of day) — though even as shopping editors, we’ll admit that the task of actually finding those styles is far from easy, which is why we’ve done all of the heavy lifting for you.

When I shop for clothing, I’m more focused on how the garment looks than where it was made, what it’s made of, and what I’ll do with it when it’s worn out.

After chatting with Revital Nadiv, I realized I’m going to have to get more environmentally mindful about what I choose to wear.

Nadiv is cofounder of Re-Fresh Globalan Israeli eco-business offering awareness activities and consulting in the field of sustainable fashion innovation.
