How to Pick Lingerie for a Spouse



The romance hasn't died and neither has your sex life. You just need to pick out some new lingerie for each other.







Do the Detective Work




Step
1



Find out if she would like a lingerie gift. She might not be comfortable with you buying lingerie for her but might still want it. In this case, pick a gift card to a lingerie store or website in lieu of lingerie itself.




Step
2



Know what his size is before you leave the house to go shopping. Your spouse's size has probably changed since you were
dating
. Visit your bedroom and look at the labels in his clothing and underwear to learn his size.




Step
3



Seek help by browsing online at stores such as Wal-Mart, Victoria's Secret and Agent Provocateur (see Resources below). Shop online if you are uncomfortable going into stores.


Shop For Lingerie for Your Spouse




Step
1



Ask a salesperson for help. Retailers will gladly help a man pick lingerie for his spouse. Salespeople can make suggestions, explain your options and ask questions that will help you think about what to buy for your wife.




Step
2



Choose what kind. Maybe she is out of stockings or all of her pantyhose have runs in them. Perhaps she has more bras than panties. Maybe she has too many nightgowns and you both think it's time for a teddy.




Step
3



Think about what she needs if you are going for a more practical gift. If all her panties have holes in them and her bras are worn thin, you have your answer.




Step
4



Try something new if you want to spice up your sex life. If you think your wife would like it, opt for something sexy that she doesn't already own, like a corset or a babydoll.




Step
5



Decide whether to buy something you'll both drool over, something for everyday or sleepwear. You might choose something that's seductive enough to wear for intimate moments and comfortable enough to sleep in, such as a chemise or sheer gown.







Tips & Warnings









Drop hints to your spouse if you would like him to buy you some lingerie. Make it easy by telling him your favorite styles and colors, as well as your sizes.








Do your homework beforehand or your gift giving could turn sour. Nothing is worse than when you buy lingerie you'd like to see her in that she doesn't like or isn't comfortable wearing.








If your spouse is between sizes, be sure a garment is returnable or exchangeable before you purchase it.
