I would say Heels all day long.

Jeans, heels, jumpers, scarves, polo necks. I don't mind bras except ones where the straps fall down all the time.

Heels

MrsAvocet · 21/08/2020 23:28

Shoes. I have really odd shaped feet and its virtually impossible to get shoes that fit me properly.
Also bras. I had a major chest injury a few years ago and where all the fractures healed there are bony lumps that are really sensitive. Underwired bras are agony but I'm yet to find a non wired one that is really supportive.

Bras and bodysuits

morriseysquif · 21/08/2020 23:59

Three quarter length sleeves

Jeans

Heels

Heels.

Crisp fitted white shirts.

Lambswool sweaters.

Anything with overly long or flouncy sleeves.

Pimmsypimms · 22/08/2020 01:05

Jeans due to my lockdown weight gain that I have no motivation to lose Blush

JaneJeffer · 22/08/2020 01:10

Shoes. I have never had a pair of shoes that didn't hurt. I love summer because I can wear sandals everywhere.

NiceGerbil · 22/08/2020 01:24

Lots of stuff TBH.

I think different people have different tolerances.

I'm happiest with no clothes on Grin

I'd go with. Bra. And then. Most clothes sold to women which are itchy, not well cut, don't accommodate breasts... Etc.

I buy from expensive brands then wear them to death TBH. Jigsaw tops are often non itchy but cost a bomb, as an example.

I can't stand not being comfy.

Frownette · 22/08/2020 01:34

Cannot stand thongs.

Feel happy in tights and soft dress.

Don't like sandals with a toe thong.

Start to feel extremely uncomfortable if I splodge a bit of food on my top/dress and can't wash it off immediately.

Time40 · 22/08/2020 01:36

Tights. Which sadist invented those damn things?

Anything too tight. Anything itchy. Any shoes that make your feet hot and sticky because you're wearing them barefoot because you can't bear bloody tights

All the people saying bras ... I think you're all wearing the wrong size or the wrong sort of bras. They really shouldn't be uncomfortable.

Lillygolightly · 22/08/2020 01:39

I’m fine with most heels, depends on the type. Some are more comfortable than my flats other are torturous to wear.

Tights come high up on the list for me. I am slim but they still seem to cut me in half and give me a tummy ache. These days I just cut the waist band along the seem until they are comfy.

French cut knickers neither a thong or a brief and just bloody uncomfortable. Most thongs however are fine. G-strings, on the other hand are bloody awful, may as well be covering my asshole with dental floss because that’s what it bloody feels like!!!

Spiderbaby8 · 22/08/2020 01:40

So many say Bra but I guess I'm weird as I feel more uncomfortable without one. I would say heels or anything clingy, esp round stomach, anything that rides up that I need to pull down or adjust, tights, jeans...just a couple of things Grin

AlrightBabby · 22/08/2020 01:45

The labels in most things drive me crackers

Timekeeper2 · 22/08/2020 02:35

Ah, I have found my people! Lol my apology to those who hate that saying.

Bras and jeans.

I honestly thought I was the only person in the world who can't stand jeans. I am stunned to read others say it. And I don't feel like a freak anymore. For me it's the denim. It just feels really coarse and uncomfortable. I prefer cotton or fleecy track pants. And I absolutely detest bras of ANY type, I am very large (think G size) and I don't know whether it is because I'm big breasted or what but I never feel comfortable in any bra.

Kote · 22/08/2020 02:41

Anything high waisted

VesperLynne · 22/08/2020 02:54

Full PPE : you sweat like f*ck , dehydrate alarmingly and it plays havoc with your complexion.

Wincarnis · 22/08/2020 03:28

Tights, bra and anything polyester

Laserbird16 · 22/08/2020 03:37

Shoes, they're too narrow for my duck feet

DancingCatGif · 22/08/2020 03:46

Wide leg trousers. I hate the feeling of them flapping around. Likewise, any pyjama bottoms without a cuff. Horrible.

And fleece. Why anyone would enjoy the feeling of this material is beyond me. It feels like the 70s.

Tillygetsit · 22/08/2020 03:51

These days anything that doesn't have an elasticated waistband Blush

BastardGoDarkly · 22/08/2020 03:55

Face masks.

I'm required to wear one for 6 hours, with 15 minutes break in middle.

They've made my bras feel positively bohemian 🙄

IdblowJonSnow · 22/08/2020 04:49

Anything tight or restrictive or that's difficult to get on/off.

And my new boots which gave me a fecking blister. Shock

chardonm · 22/08/2020 04:52

@Mojitomogul

Bra, but since I have discovered bralette the uncomfortable clasp and underwire is a mere memory of the past. Bralettes, supportive enough for my 34ff boobs have been a revelation
what brand etc please?
Mojitomogul · 22/08/2020 15:14

@chardonm here is the link, its freya fancies www.freyalingerie.com/uk/en/lingerie/bras/bralettes/freya-fancies-bralette/p/aa1010blk/
I have them in every colour, I got a large as I'm 34ff and usually a 12 or 14 in tops. It's so lovely not having the back fat that even well fitting bras caused. These wash really well, I do handwash because I want them to last. Obviously its not as supportive as a proper bra but I feel lifted enough to comfortably wear t shirts etc with the bralettes.
