I’ve been eyeing Elma Lingerie for weeks now. It started with their mesh and lace longline bra (which I like to visit on a weekly basis just to say hello) then progressed to their lace crop top with adjustable straps (because wow, the lines of this thing are amazing).

Based out of Chile, this new lingerie brand is doing some very exciting things. And since I’ve been wanting to feature more brands that don’t hail from America, Europe, or Australia, I thought they’d make a great fit for our […]
