Joey’s 146 dresses are cut from the same fabric as the 146 ties that Mel owns. \u00a0It all began when Joey was making a dress and Mel did not believe that the belt she was making complemented her. \u00a0They decided to make a tie for Mel instead and BAM! – matching outfits began.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The loving couple never leaves the house without having properly matching outfits. \u00a0Mel always wears a tie to match Joey, is cleanly shaven, and has tailored pants. \u00a0Mel states “<\/span><\/span>When you live with the most beautiful woman in the whole world, you\u2019ve gotta keep looking good”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe the key to a long happy marriage is not so complicated after all \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n
