Dating an Unstylish Girl - Page 4

my GF is quite stylish, she often gets aggravated with how much i feel something should cost to buy it She amazes me sometimes with the outfits she puts together, some of them would be SF groupthink approved. One of my friends used to dress in sweatpants and things, and then i took her to the mall and just kinda made suggestions, and she hated most of my suggestions, but after that she started really changing the way she dressed on a daily basis, now she spends too much money on clothes....like me. I have met one particularly stylish girl, she looks perfect everyday i see her, however she's not much of a conversationalist. She may have been disappointed to find out that I'm not rich....i just spend too much.

It doesn't matter to me. My girlfriend isn't very apt at buying stylish things, but what she wears works and she can dress herself well enough.

I love preppy girls anyway. J. Crew and pearls make me happy.

Discuss.

both taste and affection could be developed, but looks can not.

so, 1) is she very good looking? and 2) is she young?

Shes 27 but looks 19. Very pretty. Short hair, short, skinny, smart. Tons of style potential. Before she met my parents she went right to a boutique and bought a great outfit and I couldnt stay away from her all night! She really wants to do that all the time but she says she needs some help shopping. We went out for clothes yesterday and she tried on some great stuff but got frustrated really fast and left. I was pretty annoyed. I think maybe I need to have her go with a ghey friend or something...

My wife and me have very little in common in terms of taste or style. About the only thing we both like is me.

I would, but it would be weird if I always looked overdressed when I was with her. If she asked me to wear jeans and t-shirts more often than I do (which is rare) I would have an issue with it. As long as she did not dress like a whore, I am sure I can fix her attire problem over time.

My gf wears stuff that's borderline zany (loud patterns, etc) that turns out either amazing or completely ridiculous. I don't really mind. She knows how to fit the part if we're going somewhere formal. Also, I don't know if you guys get this ever, but sometimes she says she wishes I dressed down more often.

I have gotten that as well. I remember when I first joined the forum I attended a graduation party and I was expecting everyone to be dressed semi-formal, so I wore a suite and when I got there almost all of the guys were wearing jeans, man that was awkward for me.

I dated a girl last summer who was lacking in the style department. We only dated 2 months and one of the deciding factors was she wore some hideous dress thing over black spandex topped off with the ugliest boots I have ever seen in my life. I broke up with her days later. She was also bad at making out , and I hate chicks that don't know how to kiss.

I still think that being hot and have a sweet personality are worth more than simply being in expensive clothes. If she likes how she dresses I won't try and change her, simply how I expect to be treated too. I'd only comment on levels of formality and appropriateness of say, wearing a cocktail dress to a wake or a white dress to a wedding, but everything else is up to her.

Really depends on what level of unstylish you are talking about. There is the well put together but can't/won't afford high quality goods, which is perfectly fine... these often end up looking "bohemian chic" and I really can't be too bothered even if the only shops they ever go to are J.Crew and Club Monaco... you could do a lot worse. Then there are those who don't care about style at all, has a closet dominated by A&F, Guess and hundreds of cheap flip flops and sandals. This bothers me slightly and she would need other perks in her looks and character to counter balance that, but hardly unforgivable or a deal breaker. At the tail end of the spectrum are those garishly dressed Asian girls in my city with pastel dyed hair, logos all over their clothing and a rotation of gucci/chanel/louis vuitton on her arm. I can't think of any scenario outside of a quick fuck where this sort of female is worth my time.
