Mens Guide To Buying Lingerie
The
first thing to remember is that your partner is NOT a porn star so open
crotch knickers or open cup bras are out especially for Xmas, Valentine or
Birthday presents. Glamour lingerie is great as a little something to spice
things up in the bedroom but not for special occasions.Keep it simple, that’s the best advice. Women don’t really like lingerie that’s very, very lacy or that’s bright red or has dangly bits all over it. Women like quality designs that are comfortable, sexy and seductive, so stick with satins, silks or just simple comfortable fabrics that look fantastic.
Women also love matching sets. Our own survey says that most women don’t own a matching bra & thong/brief set so buying a set makes the items a little bit more special. Go for seductive colours rather than sexy ones. If in doubt on the colour go for pastels, white, nude, black or patterns that feature these colours. You can’t go wrong with these as they appeal to pretty much everyone.
Briefs, thongs or strings???Find out what your partner likes the most. What does she wear the most?
Briefs are comfortable and cover the bum cheeks, thongs don’t cover the bum but do have a band around the waist. Strings tend to be like thongs but with even less material! Find out what your partner wears a lot and stick to these. Another suggestion is Shorts, they are a bit like boxer shorts for women but sexier and they are very comfortable.
Sizing
Bras are measured in chest size and cup size. The chest size is the measurement around the chest just under the boobs and the cup size is the measurement around the fullness of the boobs. Sizing bras can get quite complicated but the size should look something like this.
36C
This means that the under the bust measurement is 36 inches and the cup size is C. The bigger the boobs the bigger the cup size.
The best way to find your partners bra size is to go routing through her underwear draw. Look for her favourite and most comfortable bra, check the label for the size and make a note of it. Also check her knicker size as well, these usually work on a small, medium, large scale.
IMPORTANT: If your partner catches you mooching though her underwear draw come clean and tell her what your doing. If you make up an excuse she may think you are a bit of a perv and like looking through her knickers when she’s not around!!!
Styles
There are so many different styles of lingerie around nowadays that
sometimes I get confused. Just remember that you don’t have to stick with
bra & knickers. You can also look at bustiers, camisoles
and corsets.
