GIFTING YOUR WIFE OR GIRLFRIEND LINGERIE
Valentine’s - the big day is just around the corner, but we’re here to set you up for gifting success way ahead of time. Lingerie gifts have long held a reputation for being tricky to get right, but with a few pointers, you’ll soon have a sexy underwear gift all sussed out.
It’s about personalising, doing your homework and making her feel fantastic. Nail this brief, and you’ll achieve sweet, sweet victory, with the most treasured of V-day treats!
GET THE RIGHT SIZE WHEN GIFTING LINGERIE
We know - you’re a keen bean. But forget the importance of being earnest, and focus on the importance of getting your girlfriend’s lingerie size just right!
Your Boux beauty will know exactly what size feels truly sizzling for her, and you need to get clued up too. But how? Easy, by sticking to two key rules…
1. Bras - this will be a number between 28 and 40, which references her band size, followed by a letter, usually from A-G, that corresponds to her cup size. Can you sneak a peek at her bra label next time you’re in your babe’s boudoir…?
2. For everything else - the detail’s in her dress size. Check a few of her favourite dresses and/or trousers, and go with the most common size you find. Hint: It’ll be an even number between 6 and 32.
Whether a balconette bra or body, knicker briefs or brazilian-cut, lush lingerie gifts will make her feel empowered, confident - and best of all (for you!) - happy to show off.
So, for more tips and tricks on picking the perfect Valentine’s present, hit up our guides on the most flattering bra styles for her body type and on the most seductive of sexy nightwear. Before you know it, you’ll become quite the girlfriend lingerie guru.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT STYLE WHEN GIFTING HER LINGERIE
Being gifted her perfect style is her prerogative, and you know it. So think thoughtful and keep your bae’s beloved pieces in mind when choosing your gift. Read: Delight her senses, rather than yours, and sparks will be sure to fly.
Boux’s racy range never fails to impress, and these faves will no doubt warm up chilly January nights in no time…
Hit her with a hint of spring, via the Aaliyah plunge push up bra in perfect pink. It’s pretty, it’s padded and it’s sure to bring a little va-va-voom to Valentine’s proceedings.
Sticking to seasonal shades? The Gracey balconette bra and the Freddie balconette bra in dark red and berry both honour a winter palette perfectly. Gracey is the ultimate catch for a classic lady, whereas Freddie brings a little fun via a scooped cup shape, gold bow detailing and the super sexy Freddie thong, to match.
Buying for a longtime lingerie lover? It might seem she has the complete collection when it comes to undies. But we know no lingerie drawer is whole without a truly beautiful bodysuit - and the Bouxtique Vivian body goes above and beyond, with intricate satin lace, plus stylish yet sexy strapping - are we right? You know it.
Sexy stuff picked and packaged, it’s time to think cute and comfy. The Heidi plunge bra is a perfect pick that balances feminine comfort with a little lace loveliness. A striking strawberry hue will keep things super hot, while a slightly longer line and classic cup coverage will seamlessly elevate her everyday bra picks! We recommend that you head for the Heidi briefs too, because the magic is in the matching, always.
When it comes to lingerie, black is forever beguiling - and the Kyra flock plunge lingerie set is no exception. Curved cups, premium mesh material and easily adjustable straps make this another gorgeous piece for her daily dose of luxe. You’re welcome.
