I spent $89 on Lululemon leggings and my boyfriend thinks they don't look good?

Question

He thinks that they are not worth the money and they are too high waisted. I told him that's whats comfortable to me and I think Lulu is great quality. He does this whenever I buy clothes. I frickin hate how he judges everything I buy, while he always wears dirty sweatpants all day while I clean up after him.

I’m all about comfort and design. Now back in my teens and twenties I thought the higher I paid for a item. It must be good quality! Right? Wrong.

I’ve spent clothing and shoes as high as $70-200 only to be disappointed by the fabric and material.

Now looking at your $89 leggings. They’re not that great. Bland color and high waisted. Not my style. The only good thing about it are the pockets. I mean if you think you got your money worth. Then okay, good for you.

I’ve seen better for a $8-12 at department stores.

Are they my taste? Not particularly, and yes, I think $89 is way too much to spend on leggings, but also there are frivolous things I spend money on so I won't judge you if leggings are your thing.

Your post makes it sound like there's a deeper level of problems in your relationship though that's just manifesting itself in the leggings dispute. You should examine those.

If it's purely just the leggings and they don't break the bank then I'd just ignore him, but like I said, it sounds like you have bigger problems.

They look great to me and he obviously has limited taste.

you look really great.

as for price, it’s really subjective, I spent well over £1k yesterday taking my daughter clothes shopping but it’s well in budget and she’s worth it.

some times I spend a couple quid on a t shirt, sometimes £40 on a similar one. Mountain biking ones been a good example lol.

Seriously though you look lovely and if he can’t handle letting you dress how you want, then look at moving on.

89$ for a pair of leggings is plain theft. If anything, I'd have scolded you for having fallen for the "brand" trap and having wasted your money.
About the hating the fact that he judges what you buy, I hope you've also told him already. Telling this to people who don't know you nor do really care about your relationship woes and not to the directly interested dude would be a bit counterproductive and also a bit silly, if you ask me.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

I think regardless of how he feels about the pants, he should respect the fact you bought them and spent your money on it and not complain about how it looks. You don’t exist for him, you exist for yourself and God and family and your job and your goals in life.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

If you don't like the way he responds to you, then why do you stay with him?

I think they look great on you! The remind me of a girl I used to go out with. She was wearing yoga pants and we were in her room fooling around a bit but still dressed. Then her roommate came home so we figured we shouldn't get naked and have full on sex. But she was on top of me wearing yoga pants and dry humping my hard on (I was in shorts). I guess the combo of the barely-there material plus the danger of the roommate hearing turned her on a LOT because she came from just the friction of the dry humping on her clit through the yoga pants.

I referred to them as her "yogasm" pants after that! lol!

Well first of all he should take another look or maybe he need glasses I would tell him he doesn't need to like them he's not wearing them and this is what I don't get if he knows it makes you happy why hasn't he taken the information off of them and went out and bought another pair for you

DarkCarousel · Answer

They look like normal leggings to me... almost like you could get them somewhere else for a lot less. But I've had some Lululemon leggings and they were awesome.

Anyway, if that's what you like, so be it. I can understand his side a little more if he's paying for them.

HawkPerception · Answer

Not the best looking leggings honestly. For $89 I think it's a waste. This is why brand means absolutely nothing to me. I don't get why people are so prideful about brand when they could get the same thing for much less from a no-name brand. I also don't like brand logos. If you're not paying me to advertise your shit, why would I do it for free?

WindAtMyBack · Answer

He's right. Total waste of money and they don't look good. As far as I'm concerned, there is no piece of clothing in existence that is worth $89.

It sounds like you guys are completely different wavelengths on this sort of thing.

whatsthereinname · Answer

From what I can see, I would be with your boyfriend on this, they are little too high waist.. And yes... Not sure if they justify their price tag

That said, that's if you wanted an opinion

If you find them really comfortable and worth it, that's indeed your money and your choice!

Static_In_The_Attic · Answer

Looks ok however looks overpriced as well. The label marked $118.00 if you notice there is a double label there & if you still have the tag I double dare you to remove the first label to see what the price was under the $118.00 label.

stevie123 · Answer

Mr negative doesn't seem to appreciate you.
He doesn't care how he looks to you and has no intention to improve.
You rock those lulu's!
It is time to find a guy that values you and actually cares about you.

Alpha09 · Answer

The waist is a bit high, but that is simply a personal preference. They are quality and he's just being a dick. Honestly he sounds like a bore, I'd move on. Sounds like a stagnant relationship.

ariadneR · Answer

I think you look fantastic darling!
Don't study him, he doesn't know what's good for him
My brother works at the lulu warehouse so twice a month when he's allowed to buy for women I give him a list. I love the hoodie.

Why in god's name would someone spend eighty nine bucks on leggings? EIGHTY NINE BUCKS? ON LEGGINGS? Have you lost your mind, woman?

Anonymous · Answer

first it's not his money it's yours and you can do whatever you want with your money even if you choose to throw it down the drain on leggings that look hideous on you. But hey do what you want you earned that money spend it on whatever ugly leggings you want

bowenw · Answer

It's your body and your money so you can do whatever you want. If he has nothing good to say about anything and is a slob, you may want to send him packing. It will only get worse over time.

Breanna_nonbinary · Answer

They do look fab. But in all honesty if I was your boyfriend and I had a choice I’d say you like better without them on.

Zelda_5 · Answer

They look great! I personally wouldn't pay that much, but I'm super cheap.

Leavesbound · Answer

They do look good but that is WAY too much money to spend on something like that.

spartan55 · Answer

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

Oh you definitely need to change your boyfriend. They look amazing. Money very well spent.

Nicegirldaqui · Answer

It doesn't look bad on you, maybe if you wear them with another type of shirt it'd look better.

COMMODOREII · Answer

They look fine to me. Damn regular price is $118? You are just being ripped off go get some under armour which works very well and you can get 3 of them for the price of your one.

jessicarosen · Answer

I think you got a good deal on them. I live by Lululemon. They are also high quality and will last you a time.

KatherineJ · Answer

I think LuluLemon is a ripoff. But then again, I have a hard time justifying more than $20 for some leggings. But it’s your budget, not mine.

Nazgol · Answer

Honestly, I think he's right. That's way too much money for a single pair of leggings. I would never spend that much money on it. There's so many things u can do with $90

Lululemon was started by Chip Wilson as a cruel joke to Asians, who would not be able to say the name.

Anonymous · Answer

yea not look good , are you proud show off your camel toe in front of other people as if asking for sex in different way?

Anonymous · Answer

Those are some saxy leggings! Defs overpriced as all namebrand is. The right pic looks better but I'd say a longer shirt wouldn't hurt. Showing off a high waist just seems like maternity pants

jasco · Answer

First off i agree u can get those same cloths at a much cheaper price online. 2nd yea he has no right. they do look good tho

Iron_Man · Answer

Take them back it’s quite simple most department stores are real good about that

Tell him to keep his opinions to himself. I think it's ridiculously expensive, but most clothes are. Especially women's.

RHK36 · Answer

They look good, but are overpriced. If you can afford it and it's your money then who cares.

genericname85 · Answer

Just cause it was expensive doesn't mean it looks good.

If you don't like it, then why are you still putting up with it. You picked him

Sounds annoying, I also think they're quite pricey, but then again, who cares? Your money and if you think it's comfy, all power to ya.

He needs glasses. Nice discount, but that's still too much to pay.

I would have to agree with your Boyfriend, Those are some ugly leggings especially for that price.

He sounds like a Chad, otherwise you would have dumped him.

gangs_and_guns · Answer

It doesn't look bad but it shows your camel toe. Maybe u should wear thong in your leggings

grega239 · Answer

I'm pretty sure you could've found something cheaper

Dinosaursandanime65 · Answer

Damn, 120 dollars for a pair of pants? Even for good quality ones that still seems kinda expensive.
