Happy Couple Dressing Alike Everyday

Aww, there’s nothing that says Love like costumes and fashion.

Meet Honey and Ray Smith, a happily married couple from California. For the past five years, they have dressed exactly same! These highschool sweethearts have been married for 46 years, and they began matching their clothing when Ray retired in 2003.

They own more than 100 matching Hawaiian shirts, and dozens of matching Croc clogs, jeans, pajamas, watches - even fanny packs. Honey writes an H on the tags of her clothing so Ray doesn’t get confused.

There are some minor differences, however. Honey does wear jewelry, and she gets her underwear from Victoria Secret, while Ray does not.

But Honey has basically given up women’s clothing. Which means no dresses or blouses. Once when on a fancy dress cruise, they both wore tuxedos.

Since Ray is bald, Honey even offered to shave her head! During an interview, Honey confessed, “You know, I offered to shave it off, but he said, ‘No, that’s OK.’”

So why do they do it?

“The reason is we wanted to let people know we’re happy,” said Ray. “Also, people remember us because we dress alike.”
