Compliment Him when He Does Wear Something You like
You always want to be careful not to hurt your manโs feelings. And that means focusing on the positive instead of the negative. So give him positive feedback by complimenting him when he does wear something you like. This can encourage him to wear it more often. And who doesnโt love a compliment? ๐
Give Him Clothing ๐ and Accessories as Gifts
Another thing to try when you donโt love your manโs sense of fashion is to give him clothing and accessories as gifts. His birthday, Christmas and Valentineโs Day are all great occasions to give gifts like this. And you can always give him just because gifts, too. You may even influence him to begin changing his style by giving him other choices to wear.
Define His Style
Itโs important to define his style. This can help you to shop for him more accurately. For example, if heโs always wearing oversized jerseys that you hate then you know his style is sporty. ๐ You could try something along the same line of style thatโs a little more fashion forward such as a nice polo shirt by a sporty brand such Under Armour. He may even prefer the options you show him.
Go Shopping with Him
One thing couples often do is walk around the mall. Why not make that time useful? Help him find some good options in clothing. Of course you donโt want to insult his style, just show him some other options. And if he doesnโt bite, let it go.
Accept He Needs Clothes for Downtime Too
Maybe the clothes you donโt like are the ones that your man wears when heโs just hanging out. Maybe he wears suits all week so thatโs why he doesnโt care so much what he wears on Friday nights. We all need downtime right? I know that I love lounging in my joggers when Iโm home. Look over the unfashionable jeans and old tee to see the man wearing them.
Give It Time ๐
He may not know or have cared much about fashion when he met you. That could change with time. If youโre a girl who puts a lot of effort into looking fashionable then he may start to care more about what he wears too. After all, he wants to impress you! So give his fashion sense some time to evolve.
Accept He Has His Own Taste
And you know, sometimes you just have to accept your man has his own taste in clothing. You can encourage him to choose clothing you like and compliment him but you also need to be able to accept him the way he is. You wouldnโt want him to try to change you, right? So donโt get too hung up on what he wears. Your relationship is way deeper than that!
Theseโre some tips to help you out when you canโt stand your manโs fashion sense. Are you in this spot? I hope these tips have been helpful to you.
