    Do you take your partner's fashion advice?

    I was thinking about this today because my SO is going with me to get a fancy dress. My style is much more funky and eclectic than his. He prefers clean and simple. While I like something special and fun. He's usually supportive of my fashion choices, but can also be quite critical when it's something that's not "normal". For example, he hates my pattern tights.

    So I always take his fashion advice with a grain of salt.

    How about you? Does your partner have good taste? Bad taste? Different than yours? Do you like to shop with them?

    I don't take his advice. As much as I adore him, he has pretty much no fashion sense. He's able to manage to pick out a nice dress shirt and tie, but that's about it. His nicest items of clothing are all ones that I've bought him. He doesn't even try to buy clothes for me. I'll ask his opinion on how it looks on, but that's as far as he gets involved with it

      I do. He has good fashion sense and knows pretty much what I like. Sometimes he teases me for dressing "older" than I am. But it's a fair critique because I am sometimes boring with clothes and choose comfort/ease over style. He bought me a really great maxi-dress for Christmas and I get tons of compliments when I wear it.

        at times i wanna take my SO's tee,wrap it around his neck and hang him kidding,but since his -teens,he has this huge collection of black metal shirts and he wears them 99% of the time.so when i arrive,i'd like to take him for a walk to nearby shops as for me,my style ranges so he doesnt complain.

          I don't get a single piece of fashion advice from my SO. Even when I'd appreciate his input, pretty much all he says is "I've never seen you wearing something I didn't like. You know what suits you best."

          Eh, I should take it as a compliment

            My boyfriend likes the way I dress and compliments me a lot on my style, because it is different, but he likes it a lot.

            When I was with him the last time I brought all kinds of long-sleeved and T-Shirts (since I always wear a long-sleeved shirt under a T-shirt) and he chose my clothes everyday :P

              He compliments me on all my outfits and tells me that I always look nice. He has a few outfit favourites like one of my summer dresses an a little black dress. But he's never said "ew. Don't wear that!"

                He never has any input/advice I like the way he dresses (though it's mostly football shirts haha, but they look good on him so it's ok), but he's never bought me clothes and I don't think he'd want to, even if he knew what I liked. If I buy something for me and show it to him to ask what he thinks, he'll just say something sarcastic like "looks like clothes" or whatever I should learn to just not ask haha.

                  Really depends. He never said a bad thing about what I wear, always tells me I look good. When we go shopping together, though, he tends to point at horrible things that I would never buy.

                  Although the one time he bought me a piece of clothing (top) as a present, he NAILED IT.

                      Yeah, sure, he has decent taste, with an underlying funkiness that I really like. He has a pretty good eye, so I value his input a lot, though he doesn't give it much. Men

                        My man likes to dress simple and comfortable. My style changes depending on my mood. I like asking him what he thinks about clothes because he generally gets it right. He bought me this bag last time i visited and i get so many compliments, my co workers don't believe he picked it out lol. Oh he doesnt like my shoes though...i love Irregular Choice shoes and well he thinks they're odd hehe

                          He has a much better sense of style than I do. We have similar tastes, so his input is appreciated :P. Also, he knows what best flatters my body and will definitely let me know when he likes what he sees..

                            I'm such a girly girl. I love fashion, make-up and jewelry, where's my husband don't really care, so he actually don't have much advice to give.
                            Sometimes if we're in a store I'll sometime ask him what kind of style he likes and then I'll look a bit closer on the outfit he'll point to - but not necessarily do anything more than look.

                            So I'm the one who who also coordinates his fashion as well and he don't mind XD

                              Not really, because he never has any fashion input to give me. Even if I desperately want it. His best is "it looks really nice" or "I like it." Every once in awhile I find myself asking if he even noticed I had make up on that day. His response? "Oh, yeah, you do! Idk, to me you look pretty without makeup so I don't notice." Although...I have to give him credit for saying "tights are not pants!" and "I don't like the shirts/dresses that are one colour on the boobs and another across the stomach."
