Shopping Tips For Men :

Firstly, the fact that you are even reading this is a great sign – not only are you splurging on your sweetheart (And let's face it, every gal loves a gift!) – but you actually want to get it right.

Lingerie Glossary :

In case you need some clarification on lingerie terms, see our lingerie glossary.

The following tips will help to ensure you buy the perfect present :

All About Her :

Lingerie is one of those double whammy gifts – she gets something beautiful and sexy and you get to see her in it.

But do not forget that to become that sex goddess you desire,  the lady has to feel fabulous in the purchase in the first place – buy something that you think she would love, not just something you want her to wear. Do not know what this is? Think about what she wears already – if she prefers knee-length satin slips, she will not be thrilled with crotch-less panties and a leather corset.

If the lady in question is demure, consider a babydoll, however, for a diva with a more daring side, a Basques or something in slippery vinyl might appeal.

Shady Lady :

Which hue will please? Once again think about the colours usually worn – black is classic and flatters everyone and whilst you can not go wrong with this simple shade, you will earn extra points if you choose something more avant garde.

As a guide, blonde's look great in pastel shades like pink and lilac, brunettes can pull of brighter hues like scarlet and red heads look sensational in greens. Another safe bet: white looks pure on every skin tone and cream is always chic.

Sizing Her Up :

How do you find out her size? Ask her? No, no, no! You would spoil the surprise (And let's hope this gift is a surprise!), your best bet is to look in her underwear drawer while she is out and check the labels of the lingerie she already owns – if this is out of limits, take a peek in her jacket, dress or jeans/trousers and refer to our sizing chart.

To decipher her bra size, check the label inside for an equal number like 38, 40, 42 followed by a letter or two like C, D, DD, E, etc after it – get the idea? The number is her bust measurement and the letter is her cup size – both are essential when buying bras, or bustiers.
