How to Buy Lingerie Correctly

Lingerie is the epitome of sexy underpinnings. Overtly sexy but never vulgar, the right lingerie guarantees the undivided attention of anyone who gets a peek. Follow these buying tips and indulge in lingerie that's sure to make you say, "Ooh la la."

Instructions

1. Measure yourself and buy your correct sizes. Nothing is sexy about lingerie that doesn't fit properly. Agent Provocateur's website provides simple, clear instructions for how to take your own bra measurement.

2. Take into account your body's shape. If you have a boyish figure, buy padded bras and frilly panties to give yourself some curves. Those with a bit of tummy bulge or a thick middle look best in baby doll nighties.

3. Spritz on some perfume and play up your pout with lipstick to get yourself in the mood. Don some fluffy marabou slippers to enhance the sex-kitten effect.

4. Care for your lingerie the right way. Wash lingerie either by hand in the sink or in a mesh lingerie bag on your washing machine's "delicate" cycle. Use detergent specifically formulated for lingerie and other delicate fabrics. Lay your lingerie flat to dry or line-dry it away from the sun and direct heat.
