Outfit of the Week: Fall Fun

This week's outfit is something that could be worn to just about anything this time of the year, especially with a few tweaks and modifications to make it your own! Depending on where you work, it could be worn with a camisole underneath, it could be worn to meet with friends, to go out, for a casual date, for lunch or dinner, to the museum or just running errands!
We're starting with The Pamela- Black Cheeky Brazilian panties and The Hendricks- Classic Comfort Bamboo Bralette. Over that we are adding a black and creme geometric chiffon top and a pair of light gray skinny jeans. From here, it's up to you how you style it! If you're running errands you may want to pop on a pair of Vans black slip-ons or a pair of black riding style boots to meet with friends. If you're going out, you may want to put on a pair of black wedges and a black leather jacket! There are so many possibilities when you start with the right staples!

Outfit of the Week: Sunny Afternoon

While it is Fall, we still have the occasional warm afternoon, especially this year with it being so unseasonably warm! This outfit is perfect one of those sunny afternoons we're still experiencing. It can be worn to lunch, to the museum, shopping, to just about anything you want to do on your sunny afternoon and still look cute!
This outfit features two MADI items, The Hendricks- Classic Comfort Bamboo Bralette as well as the The Diana- Ivory Wide Lace Thong. These two staples are being paired with a black and white striped crop-top and a maxi length ivory skirt. An outfit like this would look perfectly paired with a pair of black lace-up espadrilles, and a small black leather cross-body bag. Lastly, just accessorize with your favorite everyday jewelry!

Bralettes, Bralettes Bralettes!

In case you haven't already heard, our bralettes hit the website and our storefront on Friday, and we were sold out online by Sunday! However, we are anticipating a re-stock of them later this month, and if you haven't already snagged one, you won't want to miss them! Just like our other products, for every bralette purchased, we will donate a pair of our underwear to a woman in need!
We released two bralette styles, The Hendricks- a classic comfortable bamboo bralette, and The Molly- a luxe lace bralette.
Here, is The Hendricks:
& here, is The Molly:
And a HUGE thank you to all of our supporters who helped us sell out of our first ever bralette launch in three days! Keep an eye out on our social media accounts and website for the restock!

This week we're shaking things up a bit with the way we're doing our outfit of the week posts! We're going to show you how we, here at MADI, actually style our undies in real life! This post is something we would wear for a week night date or a week night rendez-vous with the girls! It's simple yet bold and works perfectly with The Mimi-Modest Bikini underwear.
We're starting with our staple MADI undies in The Mimi- Modest Bikini style and layering over them an off the shoulder black dress. We're accessorizing with a pair of brown Steve Madden wedges and a black and gold Rebecca Minkoff purse! We're glaming it up with a bold gold statement necklace, gold bangles and some simple black and gold studs.
