His and Hers

Being married, my husband and I have collectively owned “His & Hers” stuff overtime. These are items that we have or bought over the years that are matching or in Filipino terms, items that are “terno.” It’s corny to have matching stuff but I personally think it’s cute. It brings out the kindergarten or high school romance in our marriage.

Here they are (not in any specific order):
1) Our “His and Hers” matching iPod. Well, not necessarily…My husband’s iPod has more memory (it’s a 160G), supposedly that is. Not since he downloaded his 40,000+ music... Now he is left with zero memory.

Another difference is my iPod has my name engraved at the back. I’ve had this since 2004 when I didn’t really care for gadgets. I received it as a birthday present from my hubby. We---my sister in-law, mother in-law and I --- bought my husband’s iPod as a Christmas or birthday present (I think).  We use to have matching cases until my husband decided to get a clear case.  My iPod’s screen is actually cracked but I am not planning on replacing it until it dies on me lol. I just love that it has my name engraved at the back.
                     
His & Hers Keychains2) “I heart /love you” and “You heart/love me” matching teddy bear key chains that my aunt (Tita Ish) gave us on my Despedida de Soltera.  I think this is the oldest “His and Hers” item we have. We looooove it. It’s so cute and adorable. Very thoughtful! Everywhere we go we have a sweet little reminder of our lovingly ways. Along with this we have matching key chain tags like Stop N’Shop, Shop Rite and Pet Smart, etc. We also have matching keys of every single keys that we have like our house keys, mailbox key and luggage keys, etc. so that whatever happens one of us will always have a spare key.
3) Our “His and Hers” iPhone with matching cases.

We love our iPhone and we are equally addicted to it and disappointed that right after we bought our iPhones they released a newer iPhone. How sad! Oh well!

4) Our matching Puma Sneakers which we gifted each other on our first Christmas together in 2005. As you can see they are very worn out.

5) Our matching box organizers/containers on top of office desk to store our knick knacks. His & Hers Organizers/Box Container

6) Our matching striped towels.

8) Our matching Havainas flip-flops.

9) Our “His and Hers” bed side, I mean that in the most literal sense. We bought this bed with a mattress customized to our individual needs. The mattress is actually halved right down to the middle. My side which is Series 600 in green is much softer while my husband’s side which is the Series 600 in blue is tougher to accommodate his back pains. Isn’t this bed awesome?

Now, I can’t wait to have our “His and Hers” bathroom lol. Now, that would be stretching it wouldn’t it?  What about you do you find yourself and your significant other collecting “His and Hers” items? What’s in your collection?
