A Quick Guide to Buying Lingerie for Your Lady Valentine

Christmas is now over and the stores have already put up the Valentine's Day stock. Valentine's Day is a great time to spend money on something that will please both you and your significant other. Lingerie is the perfect Valentine's Day gift because it is something that will last throughout the year and mark your most romantic moments. Yes, and you will earn more brownie points with your girl if the lingerie is accompanied by flowers and chocolates.

If your girl walks a little on the wild side you may want to consider adult toys along with the lingerie. If your budget allows it spring for a sitter if you need one and find a little romantic place to spend the night.

Buying chocolates and flowers are the easiest for most men. Buying lingerie for their wife or girl friend can be challenging. Long before Valentine's day take a sneak peek into your wife's or girlfriend's lingerie drawer. If you don't feel like you can get away with being sneaky don't be afraid to ask your significant other's best friend or sister. Tell them you are thinking about buying the lingerie for your girl and ask for a size or style that they think your valentine will like. Be sure to get any friends or sisters you get in on your plans; not to tell your girl what the planned gift is.

Once you have a size doesn't be intimated to visit your local lingerie store. Clerks in these stores are used to helping men find the perfect lingerie for their wives and girlfriends. You can also find lingerie shopping tips online that can give you some basics that can help make your lingerie shopping a little easier. Remember if your wife is a sweats and tee shirt girl at home it does not mean she will not love a frilly baby doll on a romantic evening away from home.

Here are some basics to consider

Sexy lingerie obviously should emphasize a girl's cleavage. If your girlfriend is a little flatter than most girls; consider lingerie that has padding and uplifts the breast. If your wife has had a couple of kids there is a good chance she will like and be more comfortable in lingerie with some underwire to give her a little perky lift and comfortable support.

Women who are short legged can benefit from high cut underwear because it makes their legs look longer. Women with larger thighs look best in sheer lingerie that falls below the knees, but is still see through. If your girl friend is broad shouldered; she will look better in wide strapped lingerie. All women with less than hour glass figures look better in darker lingerie that draws attention to their bust and face.

Girls with small hips and who are very thin can create the illusion of being a bit curvier by wearing high cut underwear or a thong. Again, dark colors add some emphasis to the curves most women already have. Generally heavier women look better in dark colors while very thin women can get away with pastels; if they don't have excessively light skin tone.

Consider what the lingerie is made of. That sexy lingerie that requires hand washing and block drying will not be worn much by a busy housewife. Try to balance silky soft with practical fabric care. Most men have no idea how lingerie is maintained. It is really simple, read the garment tag on the lingerie before you buy it. If your wife hand washes silk stockings now, then chances are you can purchase any type of lingerie and she will not have trouble caring for it. If your girlfriend washed and ruined the silk scarf you gave her last Christmas, try to give her lingerie that is basically wash and wear.
