FH/DH shop-a-holic

I thought women were bad. Does anybody have a FH/DH that dresses even beter than them or is it just me?

No way, man. He won't even wear plaid. Hell, he barely wears stripes. He is Mr. Solid Colors on everything. Shirts are ALWAYS tucked in, no matter how big they are, and unfortunately, I can't seem to break him of his white sock habit. I think it's the cop in him....

He has an extensive collection of free promotional t-shirts from every beach club & rock station on LI and every alcoholic beverage company around. He doesn't need to shop!

He definitely likes to go shopping and buy stuff--just not clothes. He has to have just about any gadget every invented!

Re: FH/DH shop-a-holic

yup, bride04, that is my FI too.

I sometimes feel like I am the man, he comes in and I am like, 'you spent $300 on a sweater!'
I like nice clothes and all but he takes it to the next level.
I shouldn't complain though because he is good to me and he doesn't live beyond his means.

Re: FH/DH shop-a-holic

Mine does, but only because I buy all of his clothes!

Mine's not a shop-a-holic, but don't worry...I make up for his shortcomings.

Kevin may not shop often, but he's very particular about what he buys (all of his dress clothes are custom made or custom fitted to him: suits, pants, shirts, coats, etc.) He can be a label w*h*o*r*e too: Brioni, Canali, etc..

Re: FH/DH shop-a-holic

DH actually likes to shop and buy clothes...although I wouldn't call him a shop-aholic because he is an excessive saver. I think he has more clothes than me. He must have at least 35 Banana Republic (or similar) button-downs (needs that for business casual for work) and at least 15 sweaters and a million 3 buttons for the summer. I like not having to dress him when we go out. I had never dated anyone like that before him..it actually was a pleasant change for me!
