The first and foremost thing you must absolutely get right is the whole issue of size. This is the main reason why most guys give up before they even start looking at the idea of buying her a bra and pantie set.

You need to take a naughty peek into her lingerie drawers (in the nicest possible way of course) and hopefully without detection or your surprise gift won't be a surprise at all. O.K. choose a time when you know that you aren't going to be disturbed for at least fifteen minutes and in you go.

You need labels. You know the little tickets sewn into the garments with the all important information relating to size. Whist your in there it may be well worth your while to check out the kinds of lingerie styles she already wears because that way you stand a better chance of getting it right first time. Check her bras especially one you think she wears on a regular basis and make a note of the two measurements on the label. One will be the cup size which follows the letters of the alphabet starting at "A" for the smallest size and the other will be her actual chest measurement in inches. If you are thinking of buying her a bra and pantie set you will also need to read the label in a pair of her panties as well. This will usually relate to a standard dress size like 12, 14, 16 and so on although some times it may be labeled small to extra large ect.
