Lingerie for Valentine's Day

Lingerie Gift Buying Tips for Men:

Buying lingerie for Valentine's Day may be a daunting task for some men, but use these 3 simple tips and your Valentine's Day gift will be a success!

1. Buy the correct size without asking her what that is. Finding out your sweatheart's correct size without asking is easy. Either check the tags in her clothing now - check several different garments to make sure. Or ask her friends, friends almost always know the correct size to buy and won't give away your secret since they will want their friend to be surprised.

2. Purchase lingerie that fits your sweatheart's body type.

Lingerie for Skinny/ Thin Body Type: If she is thin, has narrow hips and small bust, she will look great in a Garter Set. Garter sets are ideal for women with small busts as they drive attention to their girly flat stomach and legs. If she has a small bust, then halter bras or just bras with more material on top might be the answer. Some of the teddies will look ideal on her as well as they will mostly emphasize the legs and shoulders.

Lingerie for a Thin Bodies: If your lady is thin, has very thin waist and larger hips, medium or large bust and medium height or tall, then you are really lucky because almost all lingerie types are suitable for her. Some of the lingerie styles will really show off her gorgeous figure, such as a Body Stocking or a Corset.

Lingerie for Medium Build Bodies: If she is size 10-12, has a medium or large bust, and maybe a small belly, try a a Corset. If she has a medium build and a small bust, she would be stunning in a Corset or Bustier that is not fully open on top and has strings over the shoulders. The corset should preferably be with lace-up in front, which will make her bust look bigger when tightened more. Teddies would be an ideal lingerie type as well, as it covers the stomach area and gives emphasis on bust and legs.

Lingerie for Plus Size or Full Figured: If your sweatheart wears plus sizes, the ideal lingerie type is definitely Babydoll as it covers the belly and gives emphasize the bust.

3. Pick what you like. Pick styles to emphasize your favorite feature. Also pick her favorite color or a color that you know she looks good in.

Chocolate for Valentine's Day

2008-01-15T18:18:00.000-05:00

Look at the beautiful spread that Hotel Chocolat has to offer for this Valentine's Day:

The beautiful artistry of their chocolates are matched by the rich and creamy flavors. So just when you think that this chocolate looks to good to eat . . . YUM . . . it's too good to not eat!

Valentine's Day is a special holiday and chocolate is the perfect gift to give on Valentine's day. Why chocolate? Here are some chocolate facts:

Americans buy more chocolate on Valentine’s Day than on any other day. That’s saying a lot considering the average American eats nearly 12 pounds of chocolate a year. Source: U.S. sugar Corp.

Chocolate has often been called an aphrodisiac, and while that may not be scientifically proven, what is true is that chocolate does contain phenyl ethylamine (PEA) which creates a chemical reaction in the brain similar to that of falling in love.

Chocolate has been around since as early as 1500BC; and cocoa beans were so valuable and regarded so highly, they were used as currency by the Mayans and the Aztecs.

Some scientists claim that chocolate, especially dark chocolate, has medicinal purposes and, if consumed in moderation, can lower blood pressure. Source: Wikipedia

And a warning about chocolate and your pet: chocolate is very bad for dogs, they cannot process some of the chemicals in chocolate and too much chocolate consumpion can be fatal to your pet. So, if you dog gets a hold of your Valentine's Day chocolate, consult your vet immediately.
