Lace bands are a sexy way to stop thigh chafing – and you can get ones with pockets
WE'RE loving this hot weather, but it doesn't come without its problems.
There are a number of beauty and fashion fails to be had, from melting foundation to sweat marks - and the dreaded thigh chafe.
We do know a few ways to combat friction burn between your legs, including anti-chafe balm and chafing bands.

This is where lacy bands come in.
A cross between stockings and suspenders, the accessories look sexy while stopping your legs from rubbing together.

"The phone pocket works perfectly, I have the iPhone X. So happy I ordered these, would defo recommend! X [sic]."
Another said: "Super happy with this item. They are soft to touch and on my skin.
"I have had them on since delivered and have stayed in place with no rolling up or down. They are going to be great under my shorts and dresses this summer."
We've already added them to our basket.
