Hitting the stores and brainstorming outfits is no fun when you’re with your significant other. In this article, we’ll be walking you through some easy tips to make the process a bit more seamless so you can walk around the mall without dread or frustration.

If you’re shopping for your partner, try to get their size wrong. If you get it a little smaller, we’re sure they’ll be able to squeeze into it. This is the best way to make sure that the clothes you buy will actually fit them well.

The next tip is pure genius. Take two outfits, one for them and one for you to wear. Put your own outfit on backwards and try it on with the one you’re shopping for. This will make sure that everything fits properly and flow well together as a couple’s look.

If you’re shopping for your significant other, try to make sure that you get something they wouldn’t want to wear on their own. This is a good way of making sure that everything looks appropriate and not too much of a drag.

If your significant other wants to try on something that you don’t think is good looking, leave the store and go have a coffee. This way you won’t have to see them in their new getup and look at their expression. You’ll know that they’re not happy with it, but at least you won’t have to see it firsthand.

If your significant other wants to try on a really bold look for the two of you, tell them to remove all jewelry and accessories before heading into the dressing room. This way you won’t have to imagine them in that outfit with jewelry and your mind may be sway later on.

It’s always a good idea to bring a snack or drink with you.
