Hi guys,

I'm looking to get my girlfriend some sexy lingerie for Christmas, along the lines of Agent Provocateur or similar.

Looking to get a good deal online but not sure what the best online retailers are for this kind of thing, or if there's any special offers available.

Any tips or advice would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Ryan.

    Free delivery code is CV30 for the agent provocateur website. Not sure about stockists though.

    My only other tip would be to only buy this for her if she has specifically asked for it!! :)

    I saw something on the grabbit board about cheap bras at ann summers. You could take a look at that.

    ann summers have got loads of sets - bra and knickers, basques etc with up to 85% off rp. Go to their website and go to offers.

    Get OH a nice set or how about a massage uniform - only £12 instead of £35

    I'd second this. And don't forget that women tend to think slutty is different to sexy.

    Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.

    And if you are at all unsure about her exact measurements then err on the side of caution and go small for downstairs and large for upstairs.
    I cried the year my dh got me a matching lingerie set and the bottoms fell down and the top was so small it wouldn't do up.
    She'd much rather you imagined her as slim and busty than bigged arsed and flat chested.

    Thanks for the help guys. It's a bit of a minefield buying lingerie. I think I'll play it safe and get her something else instead then take her out in the New Year and let her pick something, it seems like a much safer strategy. :)
