One of the biggest problems with lingerie gift giving, can be finding the right size for your someone special. Here are some helpful hints to ensure that the gift you give, is loved by the both of you.
If the item is not a surprise: Ask her what her size is. She may enjoy shopping for it with you (and picking out some other things to go with it!) Click here to shop for lingerie!
If the item is a surprise here a few ideas: Look through her lingerie drawer and / or wardrobe. Most items have sizes sewn in the tags with them. If all of her items are a size small, then you know what size she usually selects for herself. If you are completely at a loss, I would stick to a one size fits most item (unless you know it won't).
How To Measure For The Perfect Fit:
Bust: Measure under arms around the fullest part of the bust.
Waist: Measure around your natural waistline keeping the tape comfortably loose.
Hips: Measure around the fullest part of the body, at the top of the legs.
