With Valentine's Day just around the corner, it seems only appropriate to make the topic of this international style article... knickers. The term that is often used to describe women's fabulous undergarments, derived from several phrases including the ever popular, "Don't get your knickers all in a twist". With that being said, don't worry about searching for the best pair of knickers for that special day; I've bunched up a few silk, satin, and lace favorites. Feel free to incorporate this international style into your Valentine wardrobe.

Ciao Bella, naturally a line that is named after the Italian name "beautiful thing" would construct some of the sexiest kickers available for women. Cosabella's Never Say Never Hottie is an elegant hot pant, available in four feminine colors. The lace lays flat on the body adding flattery to the waist line and flaunting all the best assets.

Natori Feathers Girl Brief has a stunning embroidered feather detail that makes it difficult to take your eyes off (although that doesn't sound like too much of a problem) Its high-waisted style boasts a retro feel which makes these knickers flirty and fun. Ongossamer's Biscayne Lace Boyshorts features a hipster low rise and an exclusive Biscayne lace trim, exclusive to Ongassamer designs. It may flaunt more conservative full rear coverage but the unique ruched back seam still gives you, or others, something to talk about.

French knickers typically refer to those with a lace trim so we know what to expect from a line named Le Mystere. My personal favorite is Le Mystere's Camille Hipster knickers for its seamless appearance. It's available in two solid colors, but boasts a beautiful lace front, and of course, features a decorative trim on the waistband.
