When you go into the dressing room..

do you ask strangers how you look in certain items? or do you ask your firends or dh what they think?

i NEVER ask people...i guess its fear of rejection...however i feel i know when something looks good or bad

I dont really like when people ask me - because I will just say it looks nice.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I feel the same as you. I think I know when something looks good or bad, and I don't need Joe Blow's opinion.

I think it's awkward when people ask me what I think, b/c I usually think whatever they are wearing looks terrible, and I will be honest in a nice way about it.

Also, sometimes I am DYING to say something, but keep my mouth shut. Sometimes I will tell someone if something looks great on them, but if it looks bad I just think to myself, "Ohhhh no, ohhhh no...please don't buy that."

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I never ask strangers only friends and DH. Even though at times I will get annoyed when I get their honest opinion.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I dont go into fitting rooms often.
Im in and out pretty much if I do and will do all my fittings at home in front of DH who will be honest with me.

I have had people ask, I'll be as honest as I can.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

NEVER! DH always wants me to come out and show him, but I feel weird.

I will try them on for DH once tehy are purchased and we are home.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I never ask.

I was however witness to the following:

Shopper to Fitting Room Girl: Do these pants make me look heavy

FRG to Shop: They may your a$$ look really big

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

No...I'm pretty much my own worst critic. I'd rather go by my opinion.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

i've asked strangers if i'm shopping alone

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I never ask people. Unless DH is with me. Then he usually wants to see.

But I don't ask strangers, and I pretty much don't ask the salespeople either.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I never ask strangers, if I'm really not sure more than likely I just won't get it.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

No, I never ask. I think I have a pretty good idea of what looks good on me and what doesn't. And I know when I just don't feel comfortable in a certain outfit.

I have been asked for my opinion before. I always try to be honest but not hurt the other person's feelings.

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I've asked salespeople if something fits right...or rather, I've asked "is it supposed to fit like this?" I don't know why I bother really, because I don't trust them and if I'm asking someone a question like that it's because I have doubts so I usually won't buy the item anyway.

I do, however, email one of my girlfriends pics of me in the dressing room to get her opinion. My gallery on my phone is loaded with pics of just me - usually with my head cut off!

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

I never ask strangers...If I have someone w/me, I will ask, but otherwise I use my own judgement! I can be very critical of myself!

Re: When you go into the dressing room..

DH and my sister are the only people I would ask because they are the only ones who are honest.
