Your lingerie chest is personal and, to some extent, a reflection of who you are, so feel free to store items of your choosing on top of it.
Most women choose to display photo frames, their wristwatch collection and items of sentimental value on top, while others want to keep things they frequently grab like jewellery, a bowl of spare change, or their sunglasses or eyeglasses. Ultimately, the trick is to use the top of your corner lingerie chest to help you stay organized.
