Lingerie
Makes Great Gift for Him and
Her
by:

It is cliché to say that
lingerie is the gift that
“gives to him and her”, or
is “the gift that gives
back” because clearly the
man does not lose when he
gives lingerie out as a
present. The only time the
plan backfires is when he
gets something in the wrong
style—or much worse—the
wrong size. But when the man
puts some time and
consideration into the
purchase of some lingerie,
he and the receiver are
rewarded which is why it
makes a great gift.
Too often men find
themselves tempted to buy
whatever they happen to find
attractive or sexy. These
same men are then surprised
later on when their
girlfriend or wife is
utterly repulsed by the
lingerie and refuses to wear
the garment. It takes a
special kind of woman to
tolerate a thong but men
continue to thrust their
desires into lingerie
purchasing decisions that
utterly conflict with the
desires and tastes of the
partner. Thong sales only
account for 23% of all
lingerie purchases which is
why odds are that a woman
probably will not appreciate
a thong as much as the man
giving it.
In order to make a
lingerie gift successful,
the man must do his
homework. What about her
body is she most proud of?
Whatever part of the body
this happens to be, make
sure to buy lingerie that
accentuates this. For a
woman who is particularly
proud of her cleavage, a
halter might be the way to
go but a chemise would
probably be best for someone
with nice legs. No matter
what part of the body she
happens to be most
comfortable with, there is
definitely a piece of
lingerie out there made to
complement it.
The color of the lingerie
is very important to
consider as well. When
deciding upon color, you
have to take into account
the partner’s hair. Blondes
tend to do best with lighter
colors or even pastels.
Brunettes need a color that
accentuates their darker
hues so purples or even dark
greens and reds work well
for women with this color of
hair. Redheads need a dark
color but it must be
complementary which is why
greens and blues work best.
Now lingerie need not
only look great—it must feel
even better! Basically, if
you enjoy touching it, she
should enjoy wearing it.
Silks and satins are always
great choices as they are
always smooth to the touch
and feel great on her as
well. For men or women
shopping online, only buy
fabrics that you are
personally familiar with so
you know what to expect.
The right style, color,
and fabric will not make the
slightest difference in the
world if you get the wrong
size. Too many sad jokes are
made about men trying to
size up their partner’s cup
size by using their hands to
cup imaginary breasts.
Anyone shopping (either
online or at a retailer)
should know the sizes of the
garments they are after
before ever looking at
styles and colors. If it is
possible, ask. If not, you
will have to play detective
and sneak a peak at her
unmentionables while she is
in the shower or something.
No matter how you do it,
just make sure you get those
sizes or it may come back to
haunt you.
Lingerie can definitely
be one of the most intimate
and rewarding gifts a person
can give or receive. When
the desires, size, body, and
tastes of the receiver are
taken into consideration
when making a purchase,
lingerie can be rewarding to
the buyer in ways no other
gift possibly can. But, when
a person buys something that
they will like without being
considerate of the person
they are expecting to wear
the item, a lingerie
purchase can backfire.
Lingerie should be a gift
that a person remembers
fondly so be sure to think
of how she would feel
wearing the item before
buying and you are sure to
have many happy returns!
