Buying lingerie for your lady If you're thinking of surprising your second half with something nice, sweets and flowers can seem a tad boring. If you are feeling more adventurous though, purchasing some nice lingerie can make a great present that can be a lot of fun for you both. How to pick This is the part that lots of men find quite daunting. There are various types of lingerie that you might consider, and picking something which she'll like, and feel confident in is obviously essential. First off, take into account which aspects of herself she is most self concious about, and what are her best features. A baby doll or chemise will suit a woman with good legs. A fuller figure however may be better suited to a full length basque or bodice. Colours There is a plethora of different colors available, from black, through crimson and white or cream. If in doubt, dark colours generally match dark hair, whereas blondes usually suit lighter colors. Other choices you can consider include fun patterns, or more wild 'animal' patterns. Again, consider her style when deciding if you should go with a pattern or a simpler style. Sizing Sizing is often a tricky area. There's nothing like discovering the beautiful lingerie doesn't suit to ruin the mood. If uncertain, asking her might spoil the surprise, but it can save an argument later (or at least a spoilt evening). Should you not want to ask though, try waiting until she is out and look at a few of her shirts or dresses. It is a great idea to decide what type of lingerie you are getting first, then you can determine which sizes you need to know... For a bra and brief set you will of course need a bra size, whereas for a simple baby doll you might only need her dress size. Suggestion Ultimately, if you are not able to choose for sure which size you need, try getting a simple item which doesn't need to fit exactly. A cami top and briefs will have much more 'give' than a basque for example. A final point The point of lingerie is that you both to enjoy it, so above all else, try to find something that she will feel pretty in, and that you will find her beautiful in. And if you need any further guidance, why not try speaking with her friends? They will probably have a good idea of what would suit her, and what she might really like.
