"Care home chic"

I once had a gift voucher to spend in M&S. I found a draped jacket cum kimono with a wild abstract pattern. It looked great in the mirror so I took it home and put it on to show DH. As I walked into the room he said "Why are you going out in a dressing gown?" A look in our own mirror showed what he meant and back it went to the shop.

Implying that you looked dowdy and old as a joke isn’t actually all that funny though is it?
Mind you...I would lose the tweed trousers! Hide them at the back of the wardrobe.

I would have said words not allowed on GN and directed him towards a mirror.?

Mine would have said, 'You look just like your mother!'

Not sure what my answer would be but are you sure you have the right husband? I think you may have borrowed mine!
At least they have hair?

Today I dressed as advised and bought by dd's. Pink cardigan, Grey tweed trousers and zebra print socks.
When I asked DH what he thought he answered "Care home chic."
What would your answer have been to him mine unfortunately is unprintable, but the Einstein hair is booked to be cut and new jumpers ordered from John Lewis along with trousers that fit him now not 20 years ago.
