Does your wife steal your clothing?

[Allison Chaynes]

I'm certain I'm not the only one whose wife has learned that one if the added benefits of being married to a CD is the added wardrobe. Not that I mind, but it never ceases to amaze me how often Allison buys herself a new cami, skirt, bra, dress or panties only for those items to end up in her wife's drawer or side of the closet. To quote the wife: "If you buy something that fits me, it's MINE."

[Kris Avery]

I have a 'basic model' SO who doesn't like the girly stuff.
I have no fear of my stuff ending up on her.

Sometimes I think I'm girly enough for both of us.

[2B Natasha]

Hey Alison.

My wife rarely steals my clothes. Not that should wouldn't but she and I are different sizes and my tastes are a little more , but not much edgier then her taste. NOW what she does steal/borrow is my jewelry. But I guess that's fair as I routinely borrow her purses.

Cheers

[RADER]

Since we where different in size, no she would not steel my clothes.
Pantyhose however was a different subject. When ever we where going some place special,
She never had an extra pair handy....So good old Hubby CD was to the rescue.

Not clothes as she is tiny compared to me.... Makeup though, now that another story, especially nail polish.

[Allison Chaynes]

We're different sizes too, but as most of you know, one brand's 3x is really a 1x and vice versa.... and some stuff stretches. So we have some overlap. She borrows my jewelry occasionally, too. Sometimes I dress overly femme, but most of the time it's more like her style, usually comfortable jeans and t-shirt.

Great to see others' wives see this added bonus!

[Steph_CD_62]

No she does not.
We are not the same size on most things, and on the things we are the same size she said that she would not be comfortable wearing any of my women's clothing although she has no problem wearing my male t-shirts.

[CynthiaD]

I'm several sizes larger than my wife. Besides, she thinks the idea of us wearing the same clothes is icky.

[Annaliese]

Yes, when she see something she like she borrow it, but it never returns.

[pinklilly211]

OH YES!!,
My wife has borrowed a few things in the past. One time we were going to a black tie affair and I heard the dreaded,,, I don't have anything to wear!! So she looked in my closet and came out with a LBD she tried it on and told me"OK IT'S MINE NOW"!! Then she noticed the the neckline was a little too low, There went one of my black camis. Too top it off she then asked me if I had any off black pantyhose. Yup, lost them too! When we were all ready to go she then came up with,, I just reailised that I'm wearing all of your clothes!! LOL Lilly

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Allison, Although we are a DA/DT couple Sometimes I will offer something and may not get it back, And that's great.

[suchacutie]

We do borrow from each other when items fit, and that is a lot of fun!

[natalie_cheryl]

My sunglasses

[Barbara Ella]

Yes, we have to have a closet with the sharing stuff in it. Went shopping Saturday, and she bought almost as much as I did, but everything I bought was accompanied with OOOOH I like that, I can wear it too. So, I felt empowered to let her know I felt the same about several things she bought. My closet is as full as hers, and OURS is getting almost as big as both.

[Tammy Lynn Tx]

Since my shoulders are typically guy shoulders, she can't wear my blouses. Now my skirts are an entirely different matter, they are definitely fair game and usually ends up in her closet. She does surprise me with some cute dresses and shoes (mine are way too big). Now my jewelry collection is non existant but hers is growing (every time i forget and leave some at home). We do share jeans and makeup.
Life is good.

[Madilyn A.]

only my pantyhose. I always have several brand new pairs in various shades in my drawers.

[paulaprimo]

my ex-wivessss were very generous... only took the house, car and money, the clothes they left me :)

[mechamoose]

Heck yes!

I have had more than one pretty item 'appropriated' by my girl. "Kitty has good taste!" she tells me, as she bats her eyelashes at me.

(I still want that blue skirt back, wench!)

[alwayshave]

My fiancee has taken some makeup, lipstick and eyeliner. As I'm 16 inches taller than her, I don't see clothes ever being an issue.

[Laura28]

We dont really have the same size although some of my stuff will fit her. Just the other day she was going to a play with our oldest daughter and she needed a dress as she said she didnt have anything she liked ( she has more cloths then Macy"s LOL). So i asked do you want to try some of mine and see if they fit and you like. She did and of course nothing she wanted (she was cleary detirmined to get a new dress it wouldnt matter what was in the closet LOL) so we both went looking, she found the dress she wanted, and then said i know you like why dont we get one for you as well, so we walked out with two dresses both indenical? Thing the SA new lol.

[BLACK STOCKINGS]

Well she does not fit into my stuff, and she cant walk in heels so its all mine mine mine I tell ya....

[MissTee]

As I was once admonished by the spouse, "It's not ladylike to call it stealing. We call it sharing."

And, yes, we "share" often.

[Anna H]

I'm always thrilled when she wants something of mine. We have
very similar interests, so we shop online together all the time.
If it doesn't fit one of us, it'll almost surely fit the other...lol!

She brings me some little thing nearly every time she goes out.
New nail polish the other day! :)

[Eryn]

My wife is welcome to wear anything of "mine" she wants. We are the same size, though different in height.

Having this arrangement makes me feel a bit better about buying clothes. I can wear them for fun, she can wear them for real life!

[Zoe B]

Even though we differ in height to a degree we share quite a few things (she likes my pink tights and the black dress I have).

We shop together so most things we buy has had the 'do we look good in this analysis'.

Makeup is just an assumption that its open to either of us. I am more than happy to share things, our combined closet is filling up nicely.

[bridget thronton]

Very rarely but it has happened (I only get her stuff if she has changed sizes)

[Marcelle]

Hi Allison,

My wife and I share certain clothing items (tops) as we fit the same size and shoes (both a size 8). However we cannot share pants, shorts or skirts as we are different sizes (more specifically different proportions). The closet is a joint closet for both of us.

Hugs

[stephNE]

Yes, jewelry, makeup, shoes, blouses, panties, etc.
One time we were at a party, me in drab, and she whispered in my ear "are you wearing panty hose?" (she knows I under dress). I said yes why? She told me "I just got a run in mine, take them off and give them to me".

[Krisi]

Since my wife and I share the same money, she can't really "steal" anything from me. We often shop together and decide when we get home who gets what. She is welcome to wear my clothes and I am welcome to wear hers.

[Tiffanyselkoe]

My wife and I share shoes. My daughter borrows a lot of my jewelry/ clothes :)

[Dianne S]

No, never "steal". My wife and I are about the same size, so occasionally she'll borrow an item of mine, but she always asks first. I've also lent my daughter lipstick on occasion.

[JenniferR771]

OH! I so wish Ms. would borrow something in my girly storage. It would be a signal of acceptance--just a miniscule bit, but so enormous to me. Shoes--wrong size. Dresses--close, bit still wrong size. I thought she might have to borrow some earrings, as maybe her piercings had closed up--but no--she wore her pierced earrings last week. Wigs? Surely one of my 12 wigs would come to her rescue on a bad hair day. She uses my electric drill without asking, though.
Actually my adult daughter borrowed my femmy reading glasses 6 months ago; I don't know if she ever wore them. She never returned them--so far.

[Kate Simmons]

My GF doesn't "steal" my stuff but if she borrows it, she gives me a quarter. Just kidding.:heehee:MY GF's style is casual to moderate, so she rarely uses my stuff. In fact sometimes she will order bras and if she doesn't like them when they come on gives them to me. When that happens I have to get out the bigger breast forms as she is bustier than me for sure.;):)

I once bought my wife a set of tools because she would never put mine back. She promptly returned them to the store and got herself some jewelry.

[Jillian Faith]

My wife and I can share some bottoms skirts, shorts, capris and most pants. She is 1 size smaller in tops and dresses. We do borrow jewelry as well but typically not make-up.

[mariehart]

As she paid for them all you could hardly call it stealing. She hasn't taken anything of a girly nature yet, mainly because I don't have much. But I have casual female clothes which she wears all the time and some of my t shirts and male hoodies etc. Socks too but as they are women's socks.

Once she wears it I seem to lose it. Recently I put on a t shirt which she wore a lot. It's male. When I walked downstairs I was met by my five year old who said: 'Why are you wearing Mammy's t shirt?' 'No' I said 'It's really mine' 'No it's not and anyway it doesn't suit you.'

So I changed.

[Deborah2B]

Stephanie, I am glad I finished swallowing my drink before I read your response because I would have been wearing it for sure. It is so nice to hear about spouses that accept and even go along with it.


Yes, jewelry, makeup, shoes, blouses, panties, etc.

[biggirlsarah]

Hi Allison,
in reply to your question no she doesn't . But as we are the same dress size does sometimes borrow them, especially if she is going out with the girls, she will come down dressed ready to go out, I will see what she has got on and say " Is that mine ?" but on the other hand I will also borrow hers, so its equal really, it can be a problem if we are sorting out the underwear she will pick up a pair of panties and say are these yours.

[~Joanne~]

My SO is a totally different size than me so the only things she asks to borrow is some jewelry or a pair of pantyhose. Matter of fact, last time we went shopping I suggested that we buy her some and her reply was "why? you have 10 unopened boxes and you can't wear them all at once can you?" lol

[NZ_Dawn]

Yes....but it is never considered as a 'steal', more like when she see's something she like or needs she will borrow it typically permanently. Best described as "What's hers is hers, but what I have is shared. She is more than happy now for me to be the source of makeup!

[im-sparkles]

Yess !!!!

[SusanMarie]

My SO likes to use the 'borrow'.

[Roxie]

Thats funny ,my X-wife did the same thing LoL

[ArleneRaquel]

I often desired to borrow her clothes. She had a great fashion style. She died in 2002 at age 55.

[josrphine]

Hi All, Yes I am one of the lucky ones. My wife an I are the same size in cloths and shoes. I do have better fashion sense .If we are shopping an we see an out fit or some thing we both like we buy two. We like going out as sisters. One time we were shopping in Beals here in Florida, I was in drab an a women walk up too us an asked my wife if she could rent me???? We look at her an she said that she had been watching us an loved the way we were in all the depts looking an buying. She said only why are we buying two of certain items , I told her i was a C D and that we like too go out as sister with the same cloths . She turned to my wife an asked her were she could find a guy like me. We laugh an it did make our day.

[avant1465]

My S.O.and I are different sizes. However, if we see something that we both like... we get one for each of us, in the appropriate size...... Works well...

[raven_crossdresser]

We share whatever we can...

[CherylFlint]

Yes, my SO borrows my stuff, and that's okay with me.
But I never borrow any of her stuff, and that's okay with her.

[Sometimes Steffi]

My wife has never seen my clothes, jewelry or any of my girl stuff (unless she snooped).

But even if she had seen my clothes, she wouldn't borrow them. First of all, we have completely different styles. One of the benefits of my wife not seeing my clothes is that she can't complain about how they look on me.

As far as sizing goes, my bottoms are much smaller than hers; I wouldn't think she could get into mine. In tops, we are a lot closer in size, but I still think mine would be too small. I could probably borrow her tops, because they may only be a size larger.

[Nicole Erin]

My ex used to borrow my tops quite often. Not bottoms cause her butt was a lot bigger. Not makeup cause I wear darker shades.

[JocelynRenee]

My wife and I are the same size so we have a shared wardrobe. My wife HATES to shop, particularly the part where she has to try things on. So, she picks out pants and I try them on for her. She's out of luck with dresses and some tops, though, as my upper body is larger.

[NicoleScott]

A little hipocracy here? Threads about CDers wearing the wife's clothes get a lot of "get your own" responses. So why not the same advice to the wife: "get your own"?

[GreyEyes]

When we were dating, we found out that we wore the same dress size, even though she's several inches shorter than I am. She has wider hips so we don't swap pants and neither of us have any skirts although we've talked about it. I know her sizes well enough that I can safely buy bras for her (much to the amazement of the staff at VS), but I never wear hers because I have a bigger band size. We have always shared the fresh pantyhose, although once worn it seems to stay with one of us as she likes to cut the waistband. With very different sized feet (she has smaller, cuter feminine feet) we've never even been interested in trading shoes.

[KatieV]

No, but there was this lovely leopard print scarf that went missing and was found in my mother's dresser drawer, which I found while looking for something of hers to borrow - my good fortune that she was most understanding...

[Pantyhoselover1979]

I've never had that problem my wife is alot smaller size than me she's a size 8 and myself a size 20-22w lol

[Allison Chaynes]

As if a quintuple heart bypass wasn't already stressful enough, my $&@% in laws are coming tomorrow and staying at our house while I have my surgery Tuesday. They have a habit of snooping. My wife asked me to hide most of Allison's things in totes in the garage, with the exception of some panties that she suggested go in her underwear drawer for wearing after I come home next week. She just moved all of Allison's jewelry to her jewelry chest. Not that I mind sharing, it's just really annoying and infuriating to have to "in law proof" the house.

Sorry, rant over....

[darla_g]

My wife has always offered up any of her clothing to me if I fit. The opposite is true she is always welcome to anything I have purchased and I would like to see those clothes get more use anyway.

[TwoBrains]

I'm not married, but girl friends have borrowed many items. I'm always glad to share!

[Dorit]

My wife and I go shopping together, and sometimes we buy two of the same as we like to dress alike. We are mostly different sizes, but we do sometimes share the same items. She always asks before she takes anything of mine!

[freeindress]

I was hopefully not married to an ex girlfriend who was used to borrow without asking and sometimes steal things, not limited to my dresses.

[Vanessa5]

Can't say she could steal my clothes. We are different sizes. I tend to dress more feminine. I actually like dresses and skirts. She doesn't. Wish she did steal some because I think she would look really good in them.

[EllenJo]

My wife are completely different sizes (me size 18W she is a 2P) so we do not share any of my female clothes but she does like to "borrow" some of my male shirts to lounge around the house. They fit her almost like a dress and she does look cute. Recently when I bought a cute peasant blouse she asked me to get her one just like it and I did. Sharing clothes seems like a female thing and I wish we could share more.
Hugs
Ellen Jo

[terrianncd]

We share clothes when needed as well. Patty really never grew out of being a Tomboy and needs TerriAnn to dress her up when required. We shop together a lot and before she will buy anything, Patty will ask me what I think? Will it fit? Does this dress make my _____ look too big....Lol Now as our neighbors know all about TerriAnn, the neighbor lady's come borrow clothes or ask advise. Never saw that coming....

[Beverley Sims]

I think of it as sharing more so than stealing.
We are different sizes and definitely different fashion statements. :)
