Tips For Men Buying Sexy Lingerie
by Roberta Thomas
Want to buy your special lady some sexy lingerie? Do some homework before you do this and you will save yourself a lot of time and money. A little snooping and thought will go a long way in making just the right choice.
We all know the reason you want to buy her something sexy. You know it will make her feel good about herself and show her how sexy you think she is. Following my simple guidelines can help you make the right choices and ensure that she will wear your gift and she will appreciate the time and effort you put into buying her gift.
First of all, make it easy for yourself. You don't need to put yourself in a situation where you are uncomfortable and/or embarrassed by lurking around in the lingerie department of your local stores. I know men are not comfortable shopping for lingerie in that setting. They feel out of place, think the sales attendants are ignoring them because they don't really expect you to buy anything and they focus their attentions on women customers. If you have ever tried buying lingerie in a local store then I'm sure you probably felt like you were not only being ignored by the sales people but also that you were being stared at by every female customer in the store also. Not very comfortable right?
There are, the last time I checked, about 3 million online shops that specialize in sexy lingerie. Some sell a wide variety of lingerie, different styles, different colors, and different materials. Some specialize by size. Some sell strictly for petite women, some specialize in sexy plus size lingerie. You can visit an online purveyor of lingerie and spend as much time as you like browsing around until you find that just right item, all without the pressures and embarrassments of shopping in a store. Shopping for anything online today is easy, safe and confidential.
Like anything you try to do with little or no knowledge, a little homework will always help. Make sure as an example that you don't get it wrong with the sizes when you buy her this special gift. Women can be pretty insecure and giving her a piece of lingerie that doesn't fit will only make her feel too fat or too skinny. And we both know that isn't your intention. Never guess at this.
You could just ask her for her measurements but thats a loaded question with most women. Its like asking a woman her age. Its taboo. Go through her lingerie drawer at home and check the tags. If what she is wearing now fits then you can't go wrong with the sizes she already has. Just do it on the sly if you can. The best way to tip her off to what your trying to do is have her catch you going through her stuff.
Common sizes for women's lingerie are Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large, 1X/2X etc. Some types of lingerie are sized similar to women's dresses ie. 4, 6, 8, 10 etc. If the lingerie is specific to her bust size it might show sizes like 34B, 36A, 40C.
A very important but simple thing to do when trying to decide on sizes is to look at the different size charts of some of the lingerie manufacturers. Don't know any? Check the labels of your ladie's lingerie. Most of the companies that make lingerie, although they may only sell wholesale to retailers, still have a size chart on their websites. Looking these different size charts over will show you how much they differ from company to company. In the long run you will get a good idea of what sizes you need based on the height, weight and bust size of your special lady. And remember what I told you, its important to get the size right.
Almost all online retailers of lingerie have sizing charts on there stores. If the retailer has any intelligence about this, they too will have sizing charts that not only show sizes but will also show measurements and if they are really smart they will have multiple size charts specific to the manufacturers they sell for. Most of the online lingerie stores sell for several different makers therefore they should show the differences in the sizes for each.
When it comes to styles of lingerie, figure out what she likes and buy that type of lingerie. Your buying it for her, not you. If you remember that you can't go wrong. There are so many different styles of lingerie like teddie, corsets, babydolls, camis, gowns, robes etc... Try to pay attention to what she already has and see if you can find something of a similar style at least for this first gift idea. Some of these styles may be conservative but look very sexy, some may be less convservative by showing a bit more skin, and sexy too.
Color is equally important. Buying her a lime green night knowing she doesn't like lime green would be wrong. No matter how good you thought it looked on the model. Women are more creative with colors than men but even though they all still tend to like certain colors and combinations of color. See what colors she wears the most now and don't stray too far from that if you can help it. A good rule of thumb if your not really sure is: redheads look great in green and yellow, brunnettes look sexy in red and white and blondes always good good in black and blue.
Ok, you've done your homework. Now your ready to buy her that special gift. Now all you have to do is sift through the online stores, look at hundreds of pictures of sexy women in lingerie and make your decision. I know thats the hard part but it will be worth it in the long run.
Most of the online lingerie shops offer free gift wrapping services so take advantage of that and add a little glimmer of surprise to her gift. Women love to get gifts and unwrapping them just adds to the excitement for them.
