Lingerie
Alluring, sexy, erotic, beguiling, attractive,
captivating, enticing, seductive, tempting amply describe the thoughts conjured
when we hear the word lingerie.
Lingerie has come along way since it simply meant washable
undergarment (derived from the French word linge). It now covers every
conceivable form of undergarment, from corset to chemise, garter to girdle and
knickers to nightshirts and is made from every conceivable flexible and stretchy
material, including, Lycra, nylon, polyester, satin, lace, silk and, the ever
practical, cotton.
Woman generally buy their own lingerie for all sorts of reasons from looking
good to feeling sexy and confident. More and more men though are taking the
plunge and buying the woman in their life something more adventurous.
It can present considerable challenges to the male shopper, to purchase the
right piece, so here are some tips to help navigate a potential
minefield:
Buying from the wrong place: If you want to make it a memorable occasion and
not have your special gift spend it's life at the bottom of the
"undies" drawer then don't select a mass-produced product. Buy from a specialty
shop where you will get professional advice (don't be embarrassed, you won't be
their first naive male customer) or look online where the range, style and type
of product is mind blowing. You'll have a much better chance of finding
something she'll actually love receiving. Don't guess the size: This may require some clandestine detective work, but,
if you don't know sizes then don't guess. Thanks to the wide variations of
brands, styles, shapes and measurements, holding up your hands to the sales
consultant and saying about this big? isn't going to yield a good set of
lingerie. Don't buy the most expensive you can find: Sometimes the most expensive and
the most suitable coincide, but not often. Buying lingerie can take a bit of
thought and planning. The important thing is whether she'll actually love the
gift, otherwise you'll probably just be wasting your money. Aim to spend your cash on
something that works with her life style; does she like cosy, or sexy, or is she a lights
on or light off kinda girl. Just make sure you're buying something she'll want to wear and wear again. Think about her personal style: If your woman is like most other woman she
spends time on her appearance and selects carefully with what she will buy and
wear. All lingerie is not the same, so before you buy anything, think
of her favourite outfits and try to match what you are looking to buy to her
style and look. Don't buy for you, buy for her!: Lot's of lace, a tight corset and pair of
crotchless panties may cater for your fantasies but it may not be the ideal gift
for her. It's great to indulge in the fantasy of sexy lingerie, but the reality
of finding something she feels confident in is far sexier and it may prove more
productive when she comes to show her appreciation for your thoughtful gift.
