Don't be, I am the same. It's been that way pretty much all my life, before my husband it was my brothers. This look >> ::) and "You're not wearing that to come out of the house." are statements I am utterly familiar with. I am an overly-conservative dresser, my sense of fashion is almost Victorian. My brothers and husband are faced with the task of trying to get me to wear clothes that "highlight my assets" (as they put it) without me arguing that I feel "exposed". Combine that with my unfamiliarity with Canadian winters, and my husband pretty much decides what I wear these days.
Oh boy.....I have the same issue Charlie. Well sorta. He really appreciates if I wear something that has any bit of exposure, but then I have a 6'2 man constantly adjusting my clothes or walking behind me to shade off the rear asset. :-X

Oh, yes. My situation is more "baby, that doesn't match" and "do you own any clothes that fit you properly?!"

At least your men notice what you're wearing. I can't get a compliment for the life of me. I finally stopped trying and wear a sports bra and old t-shirts everywear.

When I ask my husband "How do I look?" I just get a nod or "good"... ::)

That is.. if I'm not wearing something where if I bend over, people can see the goodies... in that case, he'll go :eek: "GET ANOTHER SHIRT ON!!" :p

Nope! He chooses random times to tell me he likes the "goods" such as in my PJs........ or I'm washing dishes. Random, random man!

I do appreciate he takes the time to compliment at random times when I'm not dolled up. It's really great of him. I do wish he'd compliment me when I put obvious effort into getting ready, though. If I take an hour to brush my hair, I want a darn compliment! That's a lot of work (and hair)!

Hahahahaha.. I am sure he notices but doesn't quite get the idea that the more he compliments the more effort you put in!
