trendy clothing, formal dress I love buying men's clothing for my husband and son, and they are happy to have me do it. I've had to learn, however, that they are much more likely to wear something I buy if it isn't what they consider formal dress. They will wear trendy clothing as long as it isn't too flashy. This knit shirt, for example, is kind of trendy, but it's understated, so I know that it will be worn by them, but if it were in a psychedelic pattern, for example, it would just hang in the closet or get sent back to the website where I bought it. Over the years I have learned to pull back my clothing choices for them so that the clothes I do order for them are borderline conservative.

I pull out all the stops for myself, however. I like women's clothing that is not necessarily trendy clothing but has lots of color and texture. My sisters taught me to shop online for women's clothing a few years ago and ever since, I've got the sites nailed down for my whole family now, so buying new clothes is something I really enjoy doing and the best part? It's not having to see myself in those dressing room mirrors or paying top dollar for trendy clothing again. trendy clothing, formal dress
