Quite Continental Charm School: Day 10

I know. I fell off the wagon. But that is no reason to not climb back on! So here we go with lesson #10: A Proper Foundation. 

I have minimal requirements as far as frilly underwear goes. I actually have a couple of pairs of plain old cotton Hanes cotton "Hipsters", that I love simply because they are a pretty color. My three favorites are a pair that are a gorgeous shade of plum, a demure shade of mint, and a feisty shade of cerulean.

As for bra's I recommend that every woman have a convertible bra in her arsenal. I'm really not picky about bras, but I do have one absolute requirement:  minimal padding. Just a little for modesty. I like a nice even lining not those push up types with about an inch in the bottom of the cup.

I'm not sure what more there is to say on the matter... any other thoughts would be more than I care to have floating around the internet.  Instead I direct your attention to the fabulous pinterest boards of Alison Rubke, one of the fine curators of Faire Frou Frou.
