Well, the whole point of this car was the ED trip, so she kinda needs to be on board (literally).

I pick my clothes, but when we go out somewhere together I run my outfit it by her so our outfits don't look weird.

I often help pick my partner's clothes... I'm more into coordination and matching than she is.
