DH outfit preferences

Anonymous
Told me he loved seeing me in any outfit but that he prefers jeans over leggings / yoga pants. Is this a normal thing for a husband to say? Came up in conversation randomly.

Nice way to tell you that yoga pants are not flattering?

Leggings/yoga pants are zero effort and look sloppy and like you don’t care. A nice pair of jeans looks like you bothered getting ready.

How is it not normal? He gave you a complement by saying you looked generally, but prefers one look over another. Don't you provide similar feedback to your spouse?

+1. He would like you to get dressed in the morning and stop walking around in your pajamas.

Sure, it's normal. I told DH I think he looks great in v-neck sweaters and mock turtleneck sweaters, but crewneck ones do nothing for me.

He can wear jeans as much as he wants. You can wear what you want.

I think you're looking for a reason to be offended and/or you're reading this the wrong way around. He's saying he "loves seeing you in any outfit." Soak up that for a second; it's a freaking compliment, OP. But you're focusing on the jeans vs. leggings instead. He just said he had a preference, which is tantamount to saying "By the way, you look good in jeans." That's good too. Are you so in love with your leggings/yoga pants you really want to fret over that, instead of putting on some great jeans and inviting him to help you take them off later?

Couldn’t agree more, especially the last part.

You have a flat butt.

Husband wants me to get every outfit Rebecca from Todd Lasso wears.

I always wear jeans around the house and DH appreciates it.

He's telling you in the nicest, moving loving possible way that you need to start making an effort. Leggings are for exercise only... and only if you really look amazing in them.

I can’t wait for leggings as pants to die a slow death. Even if you have a great body, they just look so juvenile. Dress like a woman.

my husband also doesn't like the way leggings look on women.
