Onsies to go to the shops?

[wonderstuff]

DH saw three people in town in onsies today. What is going on? I can only deduce that I'm getting old..

I have to say, the woman getting arrested on our street at 6am the other day was wearing a fabulous combination: three quarter length skin tight grey jersey onesie (deffo not a playsuit) and sparkly sequinned bolero. No shoes!

As she tried to do a runner, the policeman grabbed her wrist. She flung out her other hand and twirled back into his arms, lighting a fag as she went. A flourish! We all clapped.

Romper suits (to give them their proper name) should not be worn to the shops. I would support a shop that refused service to someone wearing one, just as I would if they were wearing pyjamas and a dressing gown.

I really dont get this fashion fad....the ones. Reminds me of shell suits of 1980s. In your home no problem, outside.....

I really don't get why people give a toss about what other people wear, as long as they are decently covered who cares? I can see getting worked up about offensive slogans, but otherwise, meh....

Personally it wouldn't worry me if people walked around naked but I suspect I'd be in the minority on that one.

When I was last in England, I went to Primark to try to get a sleepsuit for my two-year-old. They had none in stock, but they had exactly what I was looking for in adult sizes, starting from age 14. I nearly tore something from laughing. Scummy, scummy times we're living in.

scummy? get a grip

It depends where. In England, not a chance. No amount of money could ever compensate for the mental trauma.

All my grips and stays are firmly in place, thank you.

Glad I live somewhere where people spend 90% of their disposable income on personal grooming and clothes. The population is a lot more aesthetically pleasing. As a shallow person, I appreciate that.

Phew I am so glad that I don't live there then, as I have other priorities!

I don't like onesies and hope to never own one, but I struggle to understand why anyone would care about what someone ELSE wears :-/ Scummy?? Really????

90% blimey chavtastic

Using strongly insulting words about something so minor makes me wonder how excited you get when faced with a real issue.

I detest them, ridiculous items which people only wear because they want to follow the crowd. I have repetitive strain injury from having to use the hide button on Facebook this Christmas due to all the fucking twats posting pictures of themselves in their fucking romper suits, thinking they are hilarious and quirky, when they just look like George Dawes only not as funny. 'I wear on because it's so warm'. Bollocks. Pyjamas are warm, jumpers are warm, dressing gowns are warm, nobody ever complained about those things being cold, therefore it is just a fad to try and make yourself look a bit fun. Probably the same kind of people who tell other people that they are 'completely mad!!'. How is anything that you have to virtually remove to have a piss in any way warmer than something you don't?

Now stop wasting shop floor space on these fancy dress costumes and put proper clothes back please.

sock don't be silly, it's sweating the small stuff that makes us able to deal with the bigger stuff properly. Don't ever go and watch a comedian will you...

Not sure what is so traumatising about a naked body, nor why it would be so much worse in England. Now, if you were going boggle eyed about nudity because of the cold then I could understand it, though given a certain natural propensity for shrinkage when it's a bit chilly you'd have a bit less to go boggle eyed about

If it was the corner shop I'd say they were lazy

But-

Since its in the Town- It must be fashion and we are all getting old

I spend shed loads of time dealing with the big stuff and tend to reserve such strong feelings for those and find being able to switch off when I get home rather more effective than taking the piss out of others for nothing other than their clothing choices.

Was your post intended to be funny? Comedy I enjoy lots but the only comic value in people getting wound up by other people wearing clothes is down to just how silly the ones doing the piss taking sound if you can ignore the very unpleasant inaccurate superiority issues,actually scrap the ignore bit because that does add to it.

sock,

I also spend a lot of time dealing with the big stuff, but thank you for so patronisingly assuming that I don't. Therefore I like to let off a bit of steam sometimes about the less important things in life. I'm not mocking people for the normal clothes they wear, in that respect I couldn't care less what they wear, but romper suits are worn for a reaction, they are not a normal item of clothing so I think if you wear one in public, you are inviting comment.

How do you know that the person in the onesie doesn't spend 90% of her income on grooming and clothes and just has different tastes to you and chooses to buy onesies.

Now stop wasting shop floor space on these fancy dress costumes and put proper clothes back please

No. But I did appreciate the please.

I would say that people who spend 90% of disposable income on personal grooming and clothes are even bigger twats than the ones who wear romper suits. What incredibly dull people they must be.

Indoors fine. Outdoors they give me the shudders. I know it's gross but I cant help but thinking skanky genitals. I imagine the men with it all hanging loose and all of them men and women unwashed, hate it, but I can get a bit OCD. Would feel the same about people shopping in their pyjamas though.

Now I just want to go out in a a Onsie and buy lipsticks. You are not furthering your cause.

I don't have a cause, just an opinion...

I've been to th corner shop in mine with my coat over, I will say as it was cold and I couldn't be arsed to get dressed again.

If you think this is chad, we'll fuck you I don't cAre

I certainly didn't mean to write chav.
