5 Reasons Why Online Lingerie Shopping Is So Much Better
In India, lingerie shopping is a huge task on its own. From the time a girl starts wearing a bra, it’ll always be a hush-hush affair. No-one really considers it ideal to talk about lingerie.
Creepy Stores v/s Online Stores
Spot the closest lingerie shop in your neighbourhood. Embarrassment starts even before you enter that shop. The front glass door will have a flashy display of the kinkiest products the owner could get. These shops are usually located amidst your vegetable market or grocery stores, camouflaging yet standing out.
Well, while shopping online you don’t need to face all that embarrassment. Sit comfortably in your knickers or while you are on the go, or when you’re bored. Messy hair, shabby clothes- don’t care. All you need is internet and love for lingerie!
Salesman v/s I’m the boss
Now, let’s take embarrassment and awkward situations a level higher. Most of these tiny lingerie shops situated in chaotic markets and often run by men. Starting with their owner to cashier to the salesperson; they all are men! Even before you can digest the fact that you’re standing in a lingerie store, you need to face some sceptical eyes. You gather some guts and mumble your size to the salesman and he’s yelling for a different size altogether. His eyeballs already measured your size when you entered the shop. But to your surprise; he was damn right and you were wearing the wrong size bra! This man knows more about your body than you know and so he’s going to make your buy what he thinks is best for you. You can’t have a choice but to shop what he offers you. Why? because he knows it the best.
If you want to buy lingerie online, trust me it’s so much better. These days buying lingerie online is so easy; all you need to do is go through a lingerie buying guide. It hardly takes a couple of minutes to measure your correct size and to find your perfect bra-mate! You are your own boss; pick the colour, style, type that you like and not the salesman.
Tiny Trial Rooms v/s Home Comfort
Imagine if these stores are so tiny, you really think they would have a spacious trail room? Their trails rooms are so suffocating, they end as soon as you enter! There is hardly any space to fit yourself in, let alone trying on stuff in there.
Online websites give you the facility to shop and try them at home and if the size doesn’t fit you or if you don’t like the feel of the product- exchange it!
Upcoming Trends / Granny Panties
The local lingerie stores are not really updated with their collection. They mostly have boring and old styles that might not fascinate the fashionista in you. They have only 2 types of categories: the so-called “branded” and the so-called “light quality” and trust me they both are the same!
Online stores will amaze with you it’s never-ending range of bras, panties, babydolls, nightwear, teddies and what not! It’s a huge platform with an array of collection and products that you only wish existed. Equipped with great fashion designers who match up with the runway trends and present to you the latest and best lingerie collection of all times.
Deals v/s Bargaining
Asking for your size and trying it on is already a challenge in its self. One might not even think of bargaining with the shopkeeper for lingerie. You might just want to get yourself out of the store as soon as possible. Later you might regret paying more for a so-called “branded bra.”
Free yourself of all that guilt, online websites offer you deals, discounts and offers so often that you are tempted to shop if when you don’t really need to. The deals are totally irresistible and the collection is so alluring. No reasons to step back.
