Cleavage cupcakes and low beam nipple covers are just a couple of the accessories you’ll find while shopping at Panty Raid. Located in Los Feliz, Panty Raid is all about embracing your feminine side. With its baby blue walls and fuchsia-colored drapes, the store’s décor is just as luxurious as its lingerie selection.

I’ve visited my share of lingerie stores, and never have I seen such an amazing selection of high-end lingerie. Normally, I’d have to travel to three different department stores to get Panty Raid’s entire selection. Brand names like Cosabella, Huit and Blush are all under one roof.

If you’re feeling frisky, try Tra La La’s vintage pink satin bra with matching panties.  If you desire to spice up a Friday night, slide into Jezebel’s emerald green corset bra and green satin bottoms. Or if you just want your boyfriend to take out the trash for the next two weeks, walk around the house in Elle MacPherson’s very girlie, polka dot push-up bra with matching panties.

My personal favorite was a dark blue, wireless, lace bra with matching bottoms by Only Hearts. This is the perfect look for lying around the house and feeling sexy. The boutique also has a great selection of comfortable thongs by Hanky Panky. They come in an assortment of bright pastel colors, and are the store’s top seller.

Next time you’re in the market for a piece of sexy, yet tasteful lingerie, do away with the department store crowds and stop by Panty Raid. I dare you to walk out without buying more than one piece from their selection, commando seamless underwear and all.
