I will say it&#8217;s getting better, but still not quite there yet. For example, he seems to think that camo shorts go with anything.  The biggest issue is what shoes go with different outfits.  I&#8217;ve tried the subtle hints and even flat out saying, &#8220;you&#8217;re wearing those with that?&#8221;  Nothing seems to stick!  He really likes this pair of sketchers that I got him for his birthday last year and wears them with EVERYTHING.  I&#8217;m okay with that because they are nice, it&#8217;s just that they don&#8217;t go with everything.  They are more &#8220;nice\/dress casual&#8221; shoes than &#8220;casual&#8221; and he tries to pass them off as tennis shoes&#8230;it doesn&#8217;t work.  Anyway&#8230;This past weekend we went shopping for some new shoes&#8230;.and had no luck.  He is the hardest person to buy clothes\/shoes for.  He just doesn&#8217;t ever want to spend money on him and it&#8217;s hard to convince him he &#8220;needs&#8221; new shoes or clothes.  After the shoe shopping we tried to find some new shirts and jeans for the boy.  Another bomb! Stores just don&#8217;t make clothes long enough for him&#8230;jeans are always too short and shirts never fit. I have the opposite problem, I go to the store and clothes are never small\/petite enough for me.  Guess it&#8217;s back to ordering clothes online, I just don&#8217;t like not being able to try them on or making sure they fit before you actually buy them.  O&#8217;well, I guess that&#8217;s life&#8230;.maybe we&#8217;ll have better luck next time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since getting married I have slowly tried to teach the hubs what shoes, shirts, shorts, etc go with each other.
