Buying Lingerie, A Guide for Guys
63What do you know about buying lingerie? I can tell you that awhile ago I knew absolutely nothing about buying lingerie. I’m on a mission to buy some nice lingerie for my wife. I realized (because she told me) that I had never bought her any lingerie. Now I like lingerie and I like when my wife wears it. So I’m going to surprise her and buy some. One problem... I didn’t know the first thing about lingerie. So, I set out to do some research. What follows below is what I learned about buying lingerie.
One of the first things that I learned was that you can buy lingerie based on the occasion you are celebrating. Designers have designed different types of lingerie for specific events. The different types include honeymoon lingerie, bridal lingerie, wedding night lingerie, and just plain sexy lingerie for any occasion. Lingerie also consists of bras and other undergarments.
When selecting lingerie it is a good idea to know a little something about your special lady, because buying the right lingerie is dependent on the woman’s size, shape, and height. It is very important to have a general idea of you lady’s waist size and cup size before embarking on your lingerie buying adventure. The internet makes buying lingerie a simple task. There are a number of websites available to you to shop online for stylish lingerie. Here’s a list of a few:Amazon.comVictoria SecretsBareNecessities.comChristineVancouver.comAvailabe From Amazon

My wife receives the Victoria Secrets catalog, and it comes on a fairly regular basis. You may want to snatch one of these to look through to get some ideas on what to buy. This will give you a head start once finally go to the stores to look around.
When buying lingerie it is important to make sure that the product is of very good quality and will last for a long time. Surveys show that today’s women prefer to wear name brand lingerie. I can attest to this because my wife loves Victoria Secrets. Also, when lingerie will be a special gift for your partner it’s a good idea to make sure that it is of good quality and from a reputable brand.
One more thing to look out for is the color of the lingerie. Make sure that you take into consideration the colors that she likes as well as what you like. And remember body proportion is important too.
Here are some additional tips to follow when buying lingerie:
- If you lady has large breasts consider full cup bras, because they will provide support and will reduce rubbing on the skin.
- Bikini style lingerie ensures that she will look young and sexy.
- If your partner has large breast you may want to avoid buying her lingerie with a demi cup, as they do not provide enough support.
- If your lady has a large waist you may want to consider selecting a baby doll top and matching low briefs as opposed to tight or snug lingerie that draws too much attention to the waist area. A sheer baby doll top will make her look and feel sexy without feeling self conscious.
- Light and airy lingerie will make slim girls frames look beautiful. Most models wear this type of lingerie because it gives a sexy look. If your lady is slim avoid buying lingerie that is too large, because it will look droopy.
- If your significant other has a pear shape you may want to buy a chemise with lace cups, because they will emphasize the breasts.
- If your lady has small breasts you may consider buying her a bustier bra. This type of bra will give the illusion of bigger breasts and the cleavage looks very nice in this type of lingerie.
- Also, if your lady has an hourglass figure avoid buying loose fitting lingerie as it will make her breasts appear larger and shapeless.
About 70 percent of women wear the wrong bra. If you want to be a hero for her then try to get the right sized bra. Badly fitting bras can cause bulges and will leave the breasts unsupported.
These are just a few tips to help you on your next lingerie shopping adventure. I hope you find lingerie shopping for your special lady as enjoyable as I have.

It is always tricky for a man to buy lingerie for his lady, this should help a few guys :) It is always nice to find a "sexy number" waiting for you and if it fits you have certainly won several points with your lady. The right fit means for us that you really know us and care.
