Despite the
fact that men are so obsessed with their lover’s bodies,
they have no idea about the exact size of her
bra. Men tend to think in terms of small/big/medium/huge but that
does not help much when it comes to buying
lingerie, especially in light
of recent findings that three out of four women may be wearing the wrong
bra size.
 Thus, the rule of thumb is that if you
know her
exact bra size, then you are in good shape.
Otherwise, you have no business giving a lingerie gift to her in the
first place. What that
means is that if a woman has not taken
off her clothes for you or you have not had a chance to visit her
apartment and peek into her lingerie
closet, you are better off buying
some chocolates and wait till you find that out.
If you have the guts and are not there yet, just ask.
Tell her you plan to buy a gift for her and hopefully she will
tell you, since women tend to be rather open about their secrets these
days. (Related:

The bra
size is generally expressed in inches or centimeters and
more important is the cup
size. While
almost women will have a minimum bra size of 75 or so, what makes it small/medium/ large/huge is the cup size.
It typically starts at A and then keeps going up.
For
a
rule of thumb regarding bra cup
sizes, remember that A cup is like a lemon, B cup is like an orange,
C cup is like a grapefruit, and D cup is like a melon. (Related

Hip
Size
Considering
the obesity problems all over the world and it has gotten even more pronounced
in America these days, make sure that you do not buy something
that will make them look ugly by accentuating the hips.
Stay away from tight fitting lingerie items like bustiers.
What are preferable are such items as baby
dolls, teddies,
chemises, and camisole sets.
The body type and appropriate
lingerie gift

You are a lucky man! Buy anything that you like. |
Personality
Is she the
girl next door or the wild type? Does
she wear white cotton underwear or lace thongs?
Unless you know this well, do not buy anything too bold.

Presenting the lingerie gift
MYNIPPON
cannot emphasize enough the importance of packaging it right.
Women might be so enamored by the packaging that they
might even preserve it. Most online stores will do a fairly good job of
packing
it if you ask for gift-wrap;
though here are a few tips:
· Always use pretty
tissue paper to line the box. Arrange the lingerie in a fashionable way
and fold the excess tissue paper over it. You can put little extras in
the same box such as: a card, a book (poetry or a romance novel), petite
wine glasses, candies, stuffed animals, jewelry, or perfume.
Whichever you decide, cover the box with pretty wrapping paper, and top
it with a ribbon and a bow.
· Put the box in a gift bag that may or may not come with
the package depending on where you buy it.
