Men, Listen Up! Three things and three things ONLY to remember when buying lingerie for your lady... SHE has to wear it, YOU have to like it, and SOMEBODY has to pay for it!
Consider the following when making a selection:
1) FIT: Carry a business size card in your wallet at all times of sizes which include (but are not limited to the following): a) Bra ( include cup size) b) Panties c) Nightgown d) Pajamas e) Teddy f) Stockings (These may or may not require a garter belt. Either way, they are generally considered a staple in a girl's sexy wardrobe much like sugar, flour, and cooking oil in her pantry!) This list should be updated at least every 6 months or, more often if she's in the process of losing considerable weight. The best way to get the correct sizes is to ASK HER. Just tell her you are comprising a list to be referred to whenever.(You won't be spoiling any surprise and this action in itself should be good for a few good brownie points!)
2) COMFORT: Forget the thong or, stiff corset if either of those just ain't her cup o'tea! If she's uncomfortable wearing your gift for ANY reason, you will she her in it maybe once and it will disappear into a closet resembling a black hole or, a bottom dresser drawer so messy and disheveled that a rotor-rooter man couldn't relocate it!
3) STYLE: You have to like it but, she has to LOVE it! Look for something in her favorite color or print (example: flowers). Try to mesh her unique style with your own taste in "what's sexy" and stimulating. Remember, although she'll be wearing it for you, the gift itself is for her!
Additional pointers:
*Don't start shopping at the last minute. Especially when the gift is for a birthday, anniversary, Valentine's Day, etc.. Like fine wine aging in the cellar, these things take some time! You may have to go to several department stores or, specialty shoppes before finding the perfect gift for your Ladylove. Oh, what am I saying? You are a guy. You don't think in terms of "perfect" or, "just right". You think in terms of "Track it, bag it, and bring it home!" (Warning: Unless you are a seasoned expert in on-line purchasing of intimate apparel, stay off the Internet. Too tricky. You're not buying a 4X4 or, a 52" plasma t.v.!)
*Shop sensibly! You don't want to be acting 'fiscally irresponsible' in times like these. (Especially, if she balances the checkbook!)The challenge here will be to find filet mignon for the price of porterhouse. (Notice I did not say ground chuck.) Cheap will
