For out of the house his stuff is just too big. I like his t-shirts for sleeping in the summer too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1107533 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 04:02:09 +0000 rachylou 1107533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hats, a tank top or shirt here and there. But he's way way bigger than me. I could use his trousers as a onesie. Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1107504 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 03:25:23 +0000 Janet 1107504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh. Belts. Hmm, I'd never thought of stealing his belts before. His waist measurement could fit my low-rise jeans, maybe... I'll have to investigate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1107434 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 00:37:52 +0000 Diana 1107434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nope. He's too big and too preppy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1107433 Sun, 08 Dec 2013 00:35:21 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1107433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nope - my husband's 6'6' and all torso so his shirts would be enormous on me. We do have the same inseam, though, even though I'm 10 inches shorter than him. In high school I used to steal my brother's clothes, a couple pairs of jeans, a flannel shirt, that sort of thing. But it was the 90s and oversized was in fashion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1107347 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 22:26:38 +0000 shedev 1107347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I regularly wear a belt that hedev likes to remind me is really one of his lashing straps, if I don't semi tuck no buckle shows. Does that count? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106905 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 08:09:44 +0000 Greyscale 1106905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I steal his flannel bathrobe.</p> <p>We're about the same size. Long long ago when we met in college, I was very bad about doing my laundry. So I'd go through all my own clothes, and then I'd steal all his old faded jeans (they were a size too big, but workable), and then finally when those were all dirty, I absolutely had to do laundry. At the time I was also wearing only men's jeans myself&nbsp;(but in my size) so it wasn't such a difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106895 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 07:05:26 +0000 Deborah 1106895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Only if I am trying to sneak it out of the house to donate to the Salvos! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106878 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 05:55:08 +0000 LoveSarahDub 1106878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of course! I live for his VERY worn out sweatpants! And certain thick socks because the help keep my slouchy boots up when I'm wearing leggings! But I've caught him in MY socks and even a belt from time to time. Guess we're even </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106873 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 05:44:58 +0000 rae 1106873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I steal the old tees he wants to donate sometimes. Or his clothes from high school... once he think's it's "worn out and ratty," I think it's "perfectly aged legitimate vintage." Go fig.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have also been known to buy belts for him and end up keeping them for myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106866 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 05:33:33 +0000 minimalist 1106866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sweats rescued from bf's donate pile are all that really work. Oh, and boxer briefs too small for him. And occasional undershirts. </p> <p>But I'm doing that less as I grow my own lounge capsules. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106842 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 04:50:12 +0000 Ariadne 1106842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't, but I should totally try. &nbsp;Belts and sweaters in particular might work. </p> <p></p> <p>And yes, it's FREEZING here (literally) by our soft standards! &nbsp;My 2 year old has been in tears every day this week after 5-10 minutes outside, even when thoroughly bundled up.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106839 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 04:48:21 +0000 E 1106839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm single, but I agree re: men's quality vs women's quality. I thrifted a brand new (tags still on, including some spare cashmere thread for darning, which was awesome) men's&nbsp;Lands End navy cashmere sweater last winter to use as pjs for cold weather &amp; the fabric is so much thicker than most of my women's department pullovers! Also I often think the men's stuff has the nicest colours, or at least good neutrals are always available. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106833 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 04:41:56 +0000 Aziraphale 1106833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, it's true that for a lot of couples, there's a big size difference, which kind of rules out the stealing of clothes! &nbsp;I'm really short, but my husband is only 5'8" and quite slim, so I can borrow certain items. His waist measurement is close to my hip measurement, so&nbsp;I can use his belts. And certain sweaters work. More structured things, like jackets and shirts, don't.</p> <p>Celia -- socks? lol I guess it counts. &nbsp;:-)</p> <p>Suz, let me know how it goes with J. Crew boys, if you end up getting something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106778 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 03:28:52 +0000 Janet 1106778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha! I have one his old tees I sleep in sometimes, but he's nearly a foot taller than me and weighs 50+ lbs more, so it doesn't really work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106773 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 03:25:50 +0000 Anonymous 1106773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just belts sometimes when I need a longer one for low-rise jeans.

Sometimes I snitch his bathrobe, but that is that. </p> <p>Of course, his stuff smells good. But that is why I married him. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-your-steal-your-sos-clothes#post-1106757 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 03:12:26 +0000 Suz 1106757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nah....Mr. Suz's stuff won't fit me. But I agree with you about the quality of men's stuff and the colours, too, and&nbsp;I am seriously considering doing some shopping at J.

Well, by my standards anyway (all you prairies gals can feel free to laugh at me). To combat the cold,&nbsp;I've been&nbsp;wearing my husband's charcoal merino cardigan. It's slightly too big for me, but I love the slouchiness and the colour/weight. J. Crew makes good stuff for men. I feel like the fabrics they use for their menswear are higher quality, and the colours appeal to me more. This cardigan has slightly heavier weight wool than the woman's version, better buttons, and better texture.&nbsp;I've worn it three times this week. </p> <p>I also regularly steal my honey's&nbsp;belts. Does anyone else nick their partner's stuff?&nbsp; </p>
