    My 6″9 husband always find shopping hard. We do most of it in the US when we head over there. Am keeping this list handy to see if he can fit into any of them :) P.s. Winter is coming to Australia – so we are leaving, bring on spring somewhere else :D

  3. Love the Marciano field bush jacket from GUESS but my husband has a jacket fetish so I am not showing this to him. We will be in Europe soon so maybe I might be nice and get him one.

  4. Some great items here that I’d love to treat my other half to. Particularly love the jeans (apart from the price tag).
