Lingerie for your star sign — Cancer

Are you feeling a bit more guarded than usual right now? A soft heart encased in a hard shell, Cancer the Crab (June 21st to July 22nd) is the star sign of the month, so things are bound to get a little mysterious…

Vintage romance

One of the most sentimental signs of the zodiac, Cancer can get deeply attached to things, and she loves nothing more than a good old rummage around a flea market or vintage store. Old school romance holds a big appeal for Cancer, and you can see this in her wardrobe. When it comes to lingerie, this means that retro shapes and antique-style lace are big favorites.

For retro vibes, high waisted panties are a good bet. Rosme’s Kamila set, which includes a full brief, $13, and balcony bra, $27, comes in a gorgeous new shade of pale beige. And in ivory lace, Amoralle’s off-shoulder jumpsuit, $149, has all the loveworn romance she craves.

Pale colors

Cancer is hugely influenced by the Moon, and she loves to waft around in pale, ethereal colors that reflect this. Ivory chiffon is basically her dream fabric; and she delights in delicate pastels and hints of iridescence (silver is another favorite). Sawren’s embroidered sheer bra in palest pink, $53, and matching panty, $42, are our pick of the new season’s pastels. As for silver, why not try the Gorteks Pamela lace balcony bra, $49, and thong, $18, for moonlight magic?

Plunge bras

This sign is ruled by the chest, so you can expect to see Cancer stepping out in low necklines, and, underneath, plunge bras designed to enhance her cleavage. Ajour’s Trevi bra, $53, is a deep plunge, molded push-up bra in her favorite shade of white, or, if that’s a bit too bridal, the Dominique Talia plunge bra with front closure, $54, is a great choice for everyday wear.

All in all, Cancer is quite possibly the kindest sign in the zodiac — so treat this intuitive and empathetic character to some ethereal lingerie to match!
