The more input she has in your selection, the more likely it is that she’ll put it on. Also, this way you’ll be sure of her size.

]]> 49890 2 31 Tip If you want to keep it a surprise, here’s a size cheat sheet. Think of her breasts in terms of fruit: A lemon is an A cup, an orange is a B, grapefruit is a C, and a melon is a D. In panties, an extra-small corresponds to a dress size of 2 to 4; a small is a size 6; medium is a size 8; large is a size 10; and extra-large is a size 12 or above.

]]> 49891 3 54 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/83372/54.jpg Look at color, style, and fabric Take your research findings to the store, and look for the colors, styles, and fabrics she gravitates toward.

]]> 49892 4 61 Tip Black is the color of lingerie women most like to receive from a romantic partner, according to surveys.

]]> 49893 5 67 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/83372/67.jpg Ask for help from saleswomen Enlist the aid of a saleswoman. She can show you what styles are popular and explain some lingerie basics.

]]> 49894 6 75 Tip Key terms in the lingerie universe include: brief, hipster, boy short, thong, plunge, balconette, demi, push-up, underwire, and soft-cup.

]]> 49895 7 86 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/83372/86.jpg Don’t be cheap Buy the best lingerie you can afford; research shows that lingerie is the number-one item that women don’t like to scrimp on.

]]> 49896 8 94 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/83372/94.jpg Buy matching sets Buy her a matching set, or sets, rather than random pieces.

]]> 49897 9 101 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/83372/101.jpg Consider alternatives There’s a lot more to lingerie than bras and panties. Consider a teddy, a silky chemise, a camisole, or a “bralet,” which is a cross between a bra and a camisole. Or a soft, sexy tank top that she’ll look forward to wearing to bed.

]]> 49898 10 115 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/83372/115.jpg Don’t forget presentation Have the gift wrapped exquisitely, even if you have to pay a store clerk to do it.

]]> 49899 11 122 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/83372/122.jpg Be encouraging Tell her how sexy she’ll look in her new lingerie. Flattery will get you everywhere!
