If you’re currently under the red or amber warning for extreme heat, what are you wearing?

I have just got in from work, had a cool shower and just put on a pair PJ shorts and top.
So stylish right? 😂

A very baggy t shirt and denim mid thigh shorts that are now a bit big so sit on hips not my waist.

Denim in this weather?!

I'm wearing a very thin cotton jersey sleeveless jumpsuit, sort of ankle length. It's very loose and comfy. No bra. I wouldn't wear it out, but would answer the door or go and water my plants a bit later.

They're very loose around the thighs, and stop chub rub...

If they stop chub rub you need to share where they are from. I need a link

A very big loose linen dress that could be used as a marquee in a pinch. Knickers. Nothing else.

M and s during covid sadly, so probably not available.

Sports bra, underwear that are shorts, a baggy long sleeved cotton t shirt, şalvar that are loose around the ankles and made of viscose I think. Very cool and comfortable indoors, around 35 outside.

40+4 today with an above 99th centile toddler baby.
So a pair of DH’s stretchy undies… and nothing else. Literally nothing else fits me.
Cry for me x

Oh my goodness, I hope toddler baby makes an appearance soon.
Or would you rather sit it out and hope it all kicks off once this hideous heat has buggered off?

Sending you cooling vibes! 🧊 🧊 🧊

I’ve been at work. Long sleeved linen top and ankle length, wide leg linen trousers. Wide brimmed hat. I am covered. I am not getting heatstroke.

HotHotHotCrow · 24/06/2026 18:12

Vest and pants. Lying in front of a fan with a cold cloth to dab on my beleaguered body.

Hotafternoon · 24/06/2026 18:15

T shirt and shorts. The legs are getting a proper airing now.

SchrodingersKitty · 24/06/2026 18:20

Long loose linen dress several sizes too big accessorised with dripping wet tea towel.

CentrifugalBumblePuppy · 24/06/2026 18:23

Not a lot. Not ashamed in the slightest to say now the working day is over I’m sitting in my pants in front of the fan.

murasaki · 24/06/2026 18:23

Dp is only wearing pants. But to be fair he's been stuck in a glass box outside all day, aka a forklift, so I'm not judging and have fed him an ice pop.

Asuitablecat · 24/06/2026 18:24

Amazing breeze in my garden. I've had a mid length floaty dress on for work all day which is surprisingly cool. In fact, I haven't got changed out of if yet because it feels nice still.

StrawberryMatchaLatte · 24/06/2026 18:25

I have just had a cold bath, so t shirt and thin pyjama bottoms.

Pistachiomonster · 24/06/2026 18:28

Long maxi wafty dress for work and underwear home now and just about to join the bra less brigade.

50NotFat · 24/06/2026 18:40

Shorts and vest at the mo. Having a bath in a mo then probably nothing! 🫣

MartinAston · 24/06/2026 18:45

Soaking wet dress, regularly re-wetted in the sink.. zero fashion points but it works a treat.

Sports bra and cotton sleep shirts. Only me and my husband home. I didn’t have meetings today and zero people called me. Was quite comfortable and productive.

Does nobody here have windows? Or neighbours?

Shorts and a top, sat in front of a fan.

The curtains are closed! (as they should be) Grin

OtterLovesItsRock · 24/06/2026 19:36

Vintage bright blue Laura Ashley V neck T shirt, slouchy lightweight cuffed black joggers, Nuxe sunblock, and cherry blossom spritz

Goodmove bright blue running shorts, white vest, coral Fitflop flip flops.

We're twins except my running shorts are dark blue nike and my fit flops are beige (with some puppy teethmarks in them)

TheChosenTwo · 24/06/2026 19:40

Lying on the bed in a tshirt and denim shorts, I wore it to work and now cba to change.
the shorts are too big for me now so like a pp they fall on to my hips rather than my waist and they’re very loose and comfortable.
If I could find any enthusiasm I’d get up and have a cool shower but I’m just watching a bit of telly and MNing at the moment.
