Organic mid rise brief

I usually do not like mid-rise anything, but this brief was comfortable and the mid-rise did not bother me.

Great new option

Very nice addition to the selection of brief styles.

They have a little more coverage without being too retro. I love the neutral color.

Not too high and a lil bit cheeky

These aren't your moms old briefs, lol! They are still a lil bit cheeky which makes them a bit cute and sexy and although they are high rise its not extreme. Im 5'1" and they come to just below my belly button which is perfect for leggings so they won't stick out the top. I thought I'd hate them being briefs and all but I actually love them.

Absolute favorite of all time!

These are my absolute favorite panties! The fit makes me feel comfortable and yet feminine. Love the color (and the variety of colors in general!)!
