My money was on not too many, which is why I asked STYLECASTER editors to open up their underwear drawers (uh, not literally) and share what they really find themselves coming back to time and time again—and, as I suspected, the responses varied widely, from strappy lace bralettes to cleavage-boosting push-ups.
