As much you are love to see her in a sexy little lace number if she is not a big fan of it, then this is not the right gift for her. If she does indeed love it, then you have found an excellent gift option. In order to maximize your lingerie buying success, the most essential things to consider when buying lingerie for your wide are the following…
Size Matters
This is a slippery slope, as if it does not fit well, it might look pretty awful - even if she already has a banging Victoria Secret model body. The sizing is really hard, so you must ensure you know it. You can do this in two ways. The first is to ask her frankly. This might not be the best way to surprise her, but you will probably get the best and most perfect answer you want. The second way is to be a bit sneaky by digging her underwear drawer or chest to find out here exact size. (there are two parts in this the cup size and the band, explained in detail below). Panties usually come in S, M, L, XL etc. so just like many things, sizes might also vary by brand, but having a solid idea will likely set you in the correct direction.
Know How Bra Size Works
You might think that the sizes are just the numbers, buying lingerie business is not that easy and it’s a delicate business that really needs the right numbers of the right fit. That said, you must know correctly how it works.
Bra sizes are of two parts - the band size and the cup size. The band is a measurement of the rib cage and the cup is that part that holds the boobs in place. The types of bra include; unlined, push - up, demi and bralette. The panties come in style like thongs, Bikini cut, Briefs, and cheeky.
Quality Comes First
As with many things, consider the quality first. It makes a huge difference. This does not necessarily mean costly, but very low-cost lingerie is unflattering, scratchy, uncomfortable and sometimes tacky. Since she is probably not a stripper, expect to spend at least a little extra attention for the quality, well-made lingerie set.
The Style Icon
If she usually wears simple styles and neutral color, you might want to go for the dark-colored lace fewer thongs. Try to remind her style in mind and choose similar colors she usually wears. When in doubt - go for the black one which is always classy and yet very sexy on everyone and also allows her to mix and match with the colors she already owns in her closet - Bonus!
The Accessories Addict
Lingerie is not completely just bras and panties. Take your lingerie gift up a notch and also try gifting her sexy thigh- high stockings to match the bra and panty set. If she is a more of a low - key you can also try getting her a beautiful lace or a silk robe to match the lingerie set. Other great additions to a lingerie gift include scented candles and flavored massage oils.
Prepare Your Wallet
Emotionally prepare yourself to spend at least $200 to buy not - so - cheap quality lingerie set. You can go for the branded ones available both online and in - store.
Who Is Pleasing Who?
Once you have found the right way to buy a classy lingerie set for your wife, you will have to also address it with a short and sweet message. Adding a personalized message to your gift make her feel special and super sexy. Go for a handwritten note. It doesn’t have to be long, in fact, make it sweet and sexy.
Don’t Buy Lingerie That is Hard to Take Off
Trying to take off tough garments that you might know how to take off can kill your wife's mood quickest. It might be anything like the buckle up model, unzip type or unsnap kinda lingerie, ask the shopkeeper for something new and easy to take off.
Avoid the Variety
We suggest you avoid the old model bras and panties. If your wife already has them, it will never sense in gifting her another of the same one. Try out something else you think she might like it and will be comfortable in.
The Daring and Pleasant Place to Shop From
If you are a newbie, then you might be confused about the options available like where and which is the right place to shop. You don’t have to confuse, as the shops who sell sexy pieces have the best quality ones if you are ready to invest in the expensive ones. As the salesperson to pick the ones that are best in their shop.

Ask for Suggestions
Specific online retailers provide a chat feature, so you can chat with their customer care representative if you have any doubt when shopping.

Buy More Than One Size
If you are not that sure how it might fit, especially if it's your first time gifting. Try to buy the same product in different sizes. That way, you can ask your wife to try it at home, compare the fit to find the right size for you. It is totally normal to end up with a different size in the end. Also, it is very rare to wear the exact size of various brands and styles.

Lingerie can be a very tricky item to return as some retailer has different return policies. For sure, undies should never be returned after trying or should be accepted if it is done so. It is often acceptable if it is tried on underwear over another to find out whether it fits first. But bras cannot be tried on and returned, if it does, it will show you the signs of wear. Most retailers suggest that the tags must be on to get the full refund and most have certain rules about dents in padded bras. Read them before buying.
Compare the Prices
If you are a bargain hunter and you have a particular item in mind that you wish to buy. Then consider using the search engine to compare the product cost.

Some retailers have a lower price for the actual product, but charge higher shipping charges so in actuality the price might end up being the same as the other or also higher.

So check for the websites that offer discreet and secure packaging shipping option. All orders should be shipped in an envelope or an unmarked box. There must not be any detail included on the exterior of the product package. Your privacy should be respected and if you think that the product has tampered then you must let them know.
