Challenge Recap: We were wondering: do men view women's fashion like we do? What we view as a classic or even a sexy look, do men f
eel the same way?
: office look, workout look, or date night look. Below are the outfits the men felt best represented the look vs. our interpretation of that look.
East Coast: The two looks I chose were work/office and date night. Once I gave him the mission, he raided my closet. In searching for the loo
k he wanted, he mix-matched som
e outfits that I would not have necessarily paired together. Some I still think he did for a good laugh...but I
did discover a few new looks hiding in my closet. I have to say, I was surprised by his choices. I think I would have switched them around. I felt that my date night look was kind of stuffy, b
ut he felt it wa
s classy and that I would be prepared for anything.
When I asked him where we were going on a date with me dressed li
ke this, his response (while trying to keep a straight face) "Olive Garden."
Overall I did like the two looks he chose, but I guess this man and this woman don't view fashion the same.
West Coast: The two looks I chose were gym attire and date night. Since I am trying to get back on track with my normal gym routine, I have been spending more time in the gym. I feel like I am rotating the same outfits over and over. My usual gym staple is spandex pants or loose running shorts with a tank top. I like to feel comfortable and airy while working out. I don't want to deal with pants riding up or not staying in place. I am not surprised by my husband's faux pas (haha) of choosing extra tight spandex and only a sports bra! Really now....when I go to the gym, I do not want to feel like I am on display. On the contrary, I prefer to blend in and keep it moving. Also, I am not sure how I would feel moving from machine to machine with no tank top to shield me. For the date night look, I wanted something comfortable yet sexy. My choice is classy yet hints at sexiness, while my husband's choice portrays "sexy vixen." Although we do not see eye- to-eye, there is something to be gained by his choices. I have worked hard to create the best version of me, and I often hide behind baggy clothes. I do not want to look back on my "young years" and have any regrets. Maybe it is time to reassess how I see myself.
Vote for which looks you like!
