    Hi folks,

    Buying some lingerie for the girlfriend (aka "small but mighty") for Christmas. I know her sizes and what styles she likes but I'm working where to shop for them.

    I have looked online at Figleaves and LaSenza which gave me a few ideas. Figleaves in particular have great buying guides for us men-folk!

    Bricks and mortar - Here in Limerick there is Ann Summers (which I had read poor opinions on), Change, Brown Thomas and Debenhams as well as Dunnes, Pennys etc. None of the other chains are here unfortunately.

    How would you guys rank the above in terms of their selection and choice? Thanks.

    Have you tried Vamp in Thomas Street??? I've always found them to be really helpful and lovely to deal with...... Haven't been in there recently, but they did have a nice selection of things... might be worth having a look and seeing?? Here's their facebook page, there isn't alot on it but it might give you and idea...

    Cant give you an opinion on the rest of the above I'm afraid but you never know, you might find something in vamp... :D

    Vamp would definitely be the best place to go.
    Debenhams would be my favourite high street place in Limerick, then probably Brown Thomas.

    That's the only place specific lingerie place i cant think of in limerick so they're def worth a try and as you say, don't even bother going to ann summers, would try debenhams and brown thomas if no joy in vamp!

    I'd steer clear of debenhams if I were you. Their stuff is nice alright but their sizes tend to be fairly hit and miss so if your girlfriend won't be there to try the lingerie on, it's not much good to you. Bought a set of 2 bras in there recently, packaged together and all, one fit and the other didn't..... And it's not the first time!!

    Thanks for the heads-up, that's a bit of a pain if two of supposedly the exact same items are different sizes.
