It's easy to write off undergarments as an "extra," stocking up on pieces only when you need them — and then holding onto those babies for several years. On one hand, it shouldn't matter when and where you bought that lacy pair of booty shorts. Your own underwear is your own business. But when you start thinking of bras and panties as the foundation of your outfit — aka the stuff that makes silky tops or velvet culottes fall just right on your body — it puts things into perspective. Quality is important, even if you have to splurge a little to get it.

So if you're ready to give your underwear drawer a full-on overhaul for 2017, we've gathered up what's worth the investment. Scroll through to find out what to buy and why.
