• Guys, you do often have the tendency to think of your women one size bigger than she really is. There is nothing worse than gifting her lingerie one size bigger than her actual size. Gifting one size smaller is not good either. This is why getting the right size lingerie is very important.

• Getting the size right. There are many ways to go about it. Inspect her closet and write down the size. The sizes generally come in numbers and letters. The bra sizes go like 'nnX/XX' while panties could be from S, M, L, etc. If you are not living together with her and do not know the exact size, then you will probably have to consult some of lady whom you know and who might be of her size. But remember getting the right size is very important.

• Material. You will probably get dazzled by the type of material that you would see on display. Being a guy, with the gorgeous models sporting each negligee chances are you would like to buy them all! But take it easy. Remember some important tips.

- Silk, satin, lace etc are better material over polyester or nylon.
- Having good bead work is good, but ensure that there aren't beads at places that may make her uncomfortable.
- Look for tie-ins...untying the lingerie good often be more exciting than unhooking it.

• Do not get fooled by what you may have seen on a film, a magazine or on a website. Your special someone has her own style and beauty. Buy something that matches her style and at the same time excites you as well. Do not however try to impose your style on her.

Be confident while buying one and rest assured that you will get that special smile off her face and that special treatment that you desire.
