Jealousy in the Office Wardrobe

According to my husband, my outfit is ‘too much’ for the office. It’s a sleek black pencil skirt paired with a fitted blouse—not exactly runway material, but professional and polished. Yet, every time I wear it, his eyes narrow, and the comments start. “Don’t you think that’s a little… revealing for work?” he asked this morning, sipping his coffee like a judge deliberating a sentence.

At first, I brushed it off as typical spousal protectiveness. But over time, I started to notice a pattern. He never seems to mind when I dress up for dinner with friends or a casual outing. The only time my wardrobe becomes a “problem” is when I’m heading to work, particularly on days I have meetings with my boss.

Let’s be honest here—he’s not worried about my clothing. Deep down, I think he’s just jealous because he knows my boss respects and values me. My boss often praises my ideas, trusts me with big projects, and even acknowledges my efforts during team meetings. That kind of recognition doesn’t come easily, and my husband, stuck in his mundane routine, doesn’t handle it well.

Maybe he’s insecure, fearing that someone else could admire me for the same qualities he once fell in love with. Or maybe it’s his way of trying to keep control. Either way, it’s not about the outfit—it’s about his own reflection in the mirror of my success.

Funny how a pencil skirt can stir up so much drama.
