Our edit of the best sexy lingerie sets that will make you feel really damn confident

There are few things as empowering as sexy lingerie. Throw on a pair of lacy knickers and a tulle bra and your confidence will immediately skyrocket. It doesn’t matter if you’re in a relationship, dating or single this Valentine’s Day, because we all now know that lingerie – even the sexiest kind – is actually all about you.

Sure, our undies are more often-than-not centred in the comfort zone, with Bridget Jones-style cotton underwear and wireless bras and sleep bras being the styles we rely on most. But knowing that a sexy lingerie set is working its magic under your outfit is not only a confidence-booster, but a mood lifter, too. After all, how much more together does your life feel when you actually manage to put on a pair of knickers and a bra that match?

Though there’s no better time than the most romantic day of the year to invest, some sexy lingerie is a seasonless purchase, rendering it a wise buy that you can absolutely justify investing in. That pair of designer shoes you’ve been saving for might be out of style come next winter, but some feminine sexy lingerie? Timeless. Granted, everyone has different preferences when it comes to underwear, so it’s lucky that there are tonnes of lingerie brands out there, each offering sexy designs in their own right.

We thought we’d save you the legwork and hunt down the very best sexy lingerie that money can buy for Valentine’s Day (not to mention the specific Valentine’s Day lingerie sets themselves). We’ve got saucy balconette lace bras, Brazilian pants, fishnet style lingerie and lace up bustiers. We’ve even thrown in push-up bras/padded bras, playsuits and tight-style stockings for good measure.

If you’re looking for high-octane allure, you needn’t stray too far from Agent Provocateur. The prices may be higher than your average, but totally worth it when it comes to how sexy you’ll feel in the brand. The Kateryna set – complete with plunge bra, thong or brief, and waspie – is high up on our wish list right now.

Bluebella is our go-to brand for bedroom attire that won’t break the bank but is seriously s.e.x.y (honestly – we had to pick our jaw up off the floor after scrolling through their “new in” section), while Ann Summers continue to prove their expertise with sexy lingerie like this Bonbon lace and dobby mesh underwired babydoll and thong set in a classic black. It’s a real showstopper and it’s only £30. In other words, you don’t need to splash serious cash to get your sexy on – so what are you waiting for?

Whether it’s to boost your mood, your confidence or just because, keep scrolling for our edit of the best sexy lingerie we could find.
