The average man knows nothing about choosing lingerie, which is certainly understandable because it can be frustrating. What kind of lingerie to buy, what size, what color - how is a man to know? Here is a little introduction to assist you when selecting lingerie for th
at special someone.
There are a few factors to consider before you go out. Specifically what does she like? Remember that you will not be dressing up in this - she will and you should go out with the intent on getting something she is going to like. If she is not into lacey, tiny, transparent teddies, chances are if you pick that, she will not be in much of a mood to wear it and you could never see it. So bear what she likes as the primary goal.
Unless you know, have a look at her nightgown/lingerie drawer before you leave. Pay attention to material type (cotton, silk, etc.), colors, and above all, size. She may be flattered if she wears a large and you get her a small, but if she wears a small and you buy her a large, you could find yourself in trouble. Stay clear of anything that says "control" on the label. Those items are used to firm and flatten tummys and rears and she will probably not appreciate receiving them as a gift.
Something else to remember is if the store offers to wrap the lingerie let them. Dainty lingerie will look better in their wrapping than if you wrap it in the paper left over from your cousin's birthday. Presentation is part of the package with lingerie.
Furthermore, should you be uncomfortable in the store, try websites that sell lingerie. You can always start at Victoria's Secret, but most major retailers like Macys and Nordstroms also sell lingerie. Final note - remember to keep your receipt in the event it is the wrong style, size, or color.
