Okay so the topic question "Does Your SO Have a Say in Your Wardrobe" has been running around in Pop News lately. All because Kanye West went through his girlfriend's Kim Kardashian closest and got rid of what he didn't approve of and it was shown on the E! reality show. I even asked some of my friends the question. It was not shocking that 3/5 of my friends said No. I wasn't even shocked at the 2 who said yes.
I say No also. Opinions & Suggestions and fine But unless the outfit is Inappropriate for the occasion my SO doesn't get a say.
What shocks some was the fact that I said "It actually grates my nerves to have to dress an Adult, all the time". It really does. It was hard but I had to learn to gauge if I'm going to have to dress a guy early in a dating rapport. It the answer seems like YES, I need dude to lose my number (Don't actually say that. People told me to say that is rude. Whatever). It's not limited to just guys I date. Any Adult!!! I just don't understand telling an Adult man that his "Good Black Jeans" are not appropriate Wedding Wear. If he has jeans he should own khakis or dark colored slacks. One shouldn't have to tell an Adult woman Not to show cleavage in the workplace. That's what camisoles and tank tops are for. It is sad that many social club have to have a dress code. But when I look in the crowd in this "Shirts with Collars only for men" club and it is a sea of polos I want to scream. No one owns a nice casual oxford (buttoN up) shirt in this joint. It's just as sad that you have to tell Ladies not wear a mini skirt to the Family dinner. Honey put on your toe toucher, Gramps don't want to see your tail.
So yes it is nerve wrecking to me to have to tell people how to dress. And I refuse to do it. Maybe I am the extreme opposite of Kanye. He has to control the wardrobe. I am trying to say a little as possible.
