I'm a woman. My OH lets me buy his clothes. He likes clothes but hates shopping. I know what he likes and what suits him. For example, he's got on a Soft Grey (brand) jumper from the la Redoute catalogue I bought him and it looks great. I bought him a vintage brown leather jacket from Oxfam (blazer style) and it looks fantasic. Better than the black one he bought himself.
When it comes to shoes I'll go with him and give my opinion. He doesn't buy my clothes but I value his opinion as he does actually have a good eye when it comes to what goes with what in my wardrobe.

Yes! I absolutely hate shopping for clothes and I'm soooooo glad when my wife chooses stuff for me. She's got very good taste, so it makes my life so much easier!

I like shopping. I like spending money, so I buy my own.
I used to buy clothes for my ex. She hated shopping and said I had good taste.
I normally don't like others buying me clothes, but I would let my current girlfriend buy me stuff though. She's the most stylish person I know.

I hate going clothes shopping; particularly for trousers. Why do inside leg measurements have to be all in odd numbers of inches, such as 29" and 31"? My inside leg is 30" so trouser buying is awful. I have to do my own shopping as I don't have a boyfriend at the moment, but my ex did buy me a jumper once - which I didn't like. It came from M&S so was returned.

I let the management pick mine, she does a far better job of it than I do.

I don't buy clothes for him... but he sometimes buys clothes for me. They're usually very good picks too. He doesn't actually 'go shopping' for clothes though... he gets stuff online.

Never. I don't let her cook either for that matter.

My husband won't let me buy his clothes, his taste in men's clothes is far more sedate than mine.

I don't hate shopping, but i'm not a massive fan of it. I could spend a few days in Manhattan, Milan or LA shopping quite easily but I wouldn't spend a Saturday afternoon in Manchester because i'd end up wanting to strangle someone. I wouldn't let anyone else shop for me either, well maybe a personal shopper, but not my girl/boyfriend of the time.

I would love to buy hubby clothes and was going to do this for christmas as he's difficult to buy for. But he's also difficult to please too. If I see something I like I buy it but 9/10 times he dosent like it. He's a bit of an old man dresser too. He's only 36
