First-congratulations to him, and to you. A win like that belongs to both of you, in spirit if not in paycheck. Now, if you want to ask him for something sweet, like clothes, the key isn't pressure-it's presence. Let him feel that you see and celebrate him, not just his new income.

You could say it like this: "You've been working so hard, and I'm so proud of you. Honestly, I'd love to dress up for you in something new-maybe something soft and a little ridiculous and completely me. Can I pick out something cute, on you?" It's warm, personal, and a little flirty. You're not demanding-you're inviting.

Men, even generous ones, don't respond well to expectations cloaked as entitlement. But they do respond to affection, vision, and the sense that giving to you is a joy, not a duty. Let him feel that when he gives, he's not just buying clothes-he's investing in a shared world where you both feel seen and desired.

You're not asking for charity. You're offering a moment of connection, delight, and maybe a little fantasy-wrapped in fabric and sweetness. Just make sure you're also building your own path forward. A good partner supports your glow, but the power should still be your own.
