Your partner or wife drops subtle hints that she would appreciate some beautiful Christmas lingerie for her Christmas present this year. This leads you to consider wriggling out of it by saying that you are not sure what to buy, or because you may have previously bought lingerie for her that she has never worn. Worst of all you may end up giving her the money and asking her to buy it herself.
It is a well-known fact that men are often nervous and unsure about purchasing lingerie for their partner. This is not at all surprising because this is definitely an area in which women know exactly what they like and want. When faced with the overwhelming amount of choice in the stores it is understandable that many men just cannot seem to get it right.
Nowadays, high street lingerie stores commonly employ expert advisors especially in the run up to Christmas. This is a good move but there remains a number of men that are just too embarrassed and nervous to ask advice about such intimate matters.
Here we have out together a guide to help you choose underwear for the woman in your life.
Firstly, research - Just like any new project which you begin it is advisable to do your research. The following are the things you need to take into account; the correct size - this is incredibly important. Firstly have a look in her underwear drawer and note down the sizes. The labels will tell you what you need. On bras you will find a two digit number for the chest measurement and a letter for her cup size, for example, 36C. On the panty labels, look for a single or double digit, for example, 8 or 12, or Small, Medium, etc. It is best to write this down so you do not forget it.
While you are having a look make sure you take account of what type of underwear that there is most of. This will give you idea of what she prefers; if there is lots of lacy material it would be best not to buy sporty cotton underwear and if there are lots of plain but comfortable items, chances are she will not really like a lacy red basque.
When it comes to colours, almost anything goes. The trendiest underwear sets come in all sorts of colours these days. Take a note of what colours your partner likes and try to co-ordinate. Nothing is more boring than set of plain white or cream knickers as a Christmas lingerie present.
So, now you have all the necessary information but read on to be sure to get it right once you arrive in the shop too.
The best things to buy are matching sets. A good tip is to purchase some extra matching panties so the set can be worn for longer.
Cheap underwear is precisely that, cheap. It will not last and give your partner the support she requires. Be prepared to spend up to your budget for items of good quality.
Do not ignore the fabrics. What does she wear a lot? If she wears a lot of tight clothing, choose smooth fabric that will not show underneath. Also check if she has any skin sensitivities.
Bras are probably the most complicated item of underwear to purchase. You will need to look at whether a model is under-wired, what shape it has etc. As a general rule of thumb, under-wired, low-cut and balconette models are the most flattering. Anything which mentions padding or slimming is likely to be unappreciated as a Christmas gift.
Last, but not least, ensure that the gift is wrapped nicely. If the shop assistant offers to wrap it, let them do so. If not, it is a nice idea to buy a gift box or some special wrapping paper. To show that you have made an effort will surely win her heart.
