Would your H use a standing valet set?

Our anniversary is at the end of the month, 5 years, and I am considering one for H.  Do you think this is something out dated?

  • H always drapes his stuff over a little stool in our room, I thought perhaps this would be nice, plus 5 years is wood.

    I am going to get him this for Father's Day.

    He doesn't do the ones on key chains. 

  • DH has one. I HATE it and refused to let him put it in our room when we moved.

    I figured I was being tricky and this would get him to hang his clothes in the closet.

    Yeah, no.  Now he drapes them on the FLOOR.

  • It wouldn't get used in my house.  But I think I've seen my husband in a suit twice in 11 years.

    But I don't understand why you would pay $150 for something that is essentially a closet but standing in the middle of the room taking up space?

    Maybe if we were a suit-wearing household I'd understand...

    H gets up at 5 something every morning for work (always wears a shirt and tie, sometimes a suit) but gets ready in his office in an effort not to disturb me, so I think this would go in there as a place to hold his clothes for the day.

  • OUrs isn't that nice, but yes, DH has one.  He doesn't really wear suits anymore, so it's more of a catch all for other clothes.  I'd rather it be on that than on the floor!

    Yes. It would stop him from using our bed's footboard as a hanger.

  • my husband uses one daily.  he loves it.  there's a little shelf on his, so mr. dandy cville can also lay out his cufflinks and lapel pin (omg).
    kiss it, nest.

    lol I love it.  Does he ever wear suspenders?  On the right man, they can be pretty sex-ay.

    no, he's a belt man.

    i'm trying to talk him into a 3-piece suit, but he says he's "not that kind of suit wearer."  i have no idea what that means.  considering the man i married wore nothing but t-shirts and khaki cargo shorts.

    kiss it, nest.

    So the vest would be over to the top for him? :)  Three piece suits are very lawyerish/bankerish to me. Perhaps the trick is getting him to try one so he can see how fantastic he looks.

  • My first thought was no, but on second thought I think my H would. I don't think it's dated. If it's something that your h can use regularly and the design is something that appeals to you, then I say get it.

    I think the idea is that the guy puts the next day's outfit on it overnight. It's just a way to set it out nicely without wrinkling.

    Oh okay.  That sort of makes sense I guess.  My husband leaves his dirty pants on the coffee table so I don't see him planning ahead...

    My H uses his to hang the suit he just took off so it can air before going back in the closet.  He LOVES it.
