Christmas for her

Women are so easy to buy for, perfume chocolates etc. But here's some help with the trickiest of all.

Lingerie

Make sure you get the right size. If you're "generous"with your sizing and buy say a size 14 when she's really a size 12. She'll think, you think she's fat. Then you'll be spending all evening trying to convince her that she's not. Instead of the other thing you wanted to do, (the washing up).

Also make sure it's doesn't look too cheap and tacky. She could take it back to the shop and exchange it for something sensible. Remember if you bought it from Marks and Spencers that could mean she trades your sexy underwear for a non stick frying pan and a prawn sandwich.

Good places to shop are

Marks and Spencer
Selfridges
Figleaves - the selection is a bit overwhelming, good brands are Aubade and Lejaby.

For larger sizes Bravissimo

Get her correct size by checking the label of her bra, or asking her friend.

My next post will be a failsafe recipe for the most important thing on Christmas day, apart from presents obviously, Roast Potatoes. Also a ridiculously festive twee photo of Grizzle and Fluffy.
