One of the most romantic things you can do is get lingerie for your partner. It's a private gift that, if chosen well, demonstrates your legitimate concern, understanding, and effort in selecting a present she would appreciate.

Don't rush into it since it's also one of the riskiest and most stressful gifts you can buy if you're a male.

There are significant brownie points to be scored here if you get it properly. Even getting to open your gift later is possible.

But if you make a mistake, you'll almost surely regret it for the rest of your life, assuming you're lucky.

Make sure to avoid the following mistakes and read the useful lingerie buying tips for males we present here before you even consider purchasing. Reading just a few minutes can spare you hours of stress.

Common Mistakes in Lingerie Purchasing:

The following are the most crucial considerations for men when purchasing intimate apparel as gifts:

1. You SHOULD NOT do it!

Keep in mind the person you are purchasing lingerie for and make future decisions accordingly. If you purchase something in a style she doesn't often wear, you probably made a mistake. However, if you get it in a color or style she doesn't often wear, you've probably got it incorrect. Purchasing something you appreciate personally increases the likelihood that you've made a mistake.

The Golden Rule: Never buy lingerie for yourself. Always buy it for your woman.

Although you would undoubtedly want to see her in the same sexy, tiny underwear as those models, consider the message you are conveying. What would you like your present to say? "I adore you because you're unique, or "Love? All I want to do is... you! ".

If you choose the crotchless, peephole, leather, PVC, lingerie, or naughty nurse attire, you'll almost certainly spend the night with Rover. You are more likely to be on the right track if you choose something smooth or lacey.

2. Conduct research

Going into a lingerie store blind is the second worst error. AVOID attempting to estimate her size, preferred style, or anything else about her. You'll utterly fail. Unfortunately, women have to go and complicate things since they don't work in S, M, L, and XL sizes like us. Be prepared to be overwhelmed with a bewildering variety of numbers and letters when you enter a lingerie store, along with a range of bizarre and amazing things that, to the untrained eye, appear to be identical yet, to her, differ greatly.

Think push-up, plunge, balcony, gel or water filling, padding or lack thereof, underwired or not, seamless or strapless, open cup, and cup sizes ranging from A to JJ, not to mention the numbers, various fabrics, and various styles. And that's just the bras!

Basically, men, conduct your study before going to the store or buying online to greatly improve your chances of making the appropriate decision. Wait for her to leave before breaking into her underwear drawer. Look for items that have labels inside, then note the numbers there. You may borrow a bra and underwear set, take it to a store, and ask a salesperson if they don't have sizes inside; don't worry; they've seen it all before.

Make sure what you take is on the new side or you run the danger of purchasing anything in her former size rather than her current one. The very WORST thing you can do is to purchase anything in her previous dress size or two!

While you are searching through her underwear, jot down the colors and designs she prefers. Is there a certain color she prefers above others? Does she like patterned or basic fashions? Does she choose sex appeal or comfort? These are crucial details to keep in mind if you want to purchase her something she'll appreciate rather than something that ends up in the bottom of the drawer.

3. Things To Avoid

There are a few mistakes to avoid now that you are aware of her size, favorite colors, and fashion preferences:

Don't touch anything with the words "Control," "Reducing," etc. You'd probably be better off avoiding them unless you really want to send the message "suck it in fatty" because they are designed to suck in belly and hide extra weight.

Again, be mindful of what you can be interpreted as hinting at while using cleavage-enhancing bras, bras that are filled with gel or water, and so on.

In general, kinky material doesn't make a great "I love you" present. Save it for the seasons between birthdays, Christmas, and Valentine's Day if you have the guts to purchase it at all.

Anything else is most likely secure.

Final Advice:

Here are a few last suggestions now that you've presumably avoided most of the pitfalls:

1. Presentation

The presentation of your gift is a crucial component. Most stores will professionally gift wrap your product for you if you request it and pay a modest fee; this service is well worth the extra cost.

2. Online shopping

The abundance of information available to you that you just won't find in a physical and mortar lingerie store is one of the wonderful things about buying lingerie online. For a wealth of suggestions on what are the most popular selections, check at their gift suggestions, best sellers list, etc.

3. Save The Receipt!

If things go bad, she can easily switch it out for something different.

Good luck and may you receive the benefits that your boldness merits if you decide to try it out again. After all, the adage "feeble heart never won a pretty maiden" is true.
