I noticed something really odd today, something I can't unsee!
My DD, 3, puts her trousers on before her socks!!

AIBU to think that this is absolutely crazy, and to question if she's even mine Shock

Socks first here too! Your DD and PP are broken!Grin

TooManyPaws · 10/05/2019 17:51

Socks last if I'm just wearing joggers or whatever. If I'm dressing for work it depends what Docs I've chosen to go with my top (black skirt and leggings - hate tights); if they go with the boots etc then on last so they peek out of the top, otherwise on before the leggings, though it might still be last if I have to go get them off the pulley.

Laughing at having an accident or dying between putting in socks and trousers. That was brill.

Frazzledstar1 · 10/05/2019 17:53

I always put my socks on last but always out dcs socks on before trousers... maybe I’m broken Blush

FelicisNox · 10/05/2019 17:55

PissOffPeppa · 10/05/2019 17:58

With me it goes:

Pants
Bra
(Leggings, if worn)
Top
Skirt/ trousers
Socks

Socks always, always last

JustDanceAddict · 10/05/2019 17:59

Socks def go on last

cdtaylornats · 10/05/2019 18:00

Socks first

FancyAPint · 10/05/2019 18:07

I put socks on last because your feet slide into the trousers much easier if you do socks first the material slows it down/catches.

LakieLady · 10/05/2019 18:08

I'm with you on this one, Forever.

Having to hoick up your trouser legs to get your socks underneath is an unnecessary expenditure of energy, and I am very, very lazy.

Everyone I have ever seen get dressed puts trousers on then socks

JonSnowsFurCoat · 10/05/2019 18:11

We all put sock on first in our house. I wear quite tight skinny jeggings most days so have to put my socks on first. The kids, it’s just easier as they wear cuffed joggers to nursery. Dd wears tights so no probs there!

Geekynzmum · 10/05/2019 18:12

Everyone in our house pits socks on before trousers/pants/jeans but after underwear.

Plipplopbop · 10/05/2019 18:41

I don't wear socks, neither do my 3DC unless it's a school day (uniform, no choice). Only time I do is sometimes big fluffy ones in the house in winter, but if I go out I take my socks off. Before I'm accused of being minging as well as broken, my shoes are washable sketchers. Socks are the devil's tubes.

nocoolnamesleft · 10/05/2019 18:43

Socks last: sock shoe, sock shoe. It's hard enough reaching each foot once, not doing it twice.

SunshineCake · 10/05/2019 19:04

Socks before jeans as some of my jeans are very tight.

Supermum29 · 10/05/2019 19:07

Socks first here too!

ForgiveMeFatherForIHaveGinned · 10/05/2019 19:11

Everyone who is putting socks on before skinny jeans - does that mean your socks are on show or your jeans touch your shoes? Trainer socks only here with skinny jeans and a bare ankle!

monty09 · 10/05/2019 19:12

Socks first for me and my 3 year old as I still get her ready otherwise we'd never leave the house

Icklepup · 10/05/2019 19:15

Socks last for me too

Bubblemonkey · 10/05/2019 19:19

Bra, knickers, top, socks then jeans

Strongecoffeeismydrug · 10/05/2019 19:25

Your dd is perfectly fine but I think you need fixing 🤔

sideorderofchips · 10/05/2019 19:25

Dear god you heathens.

Socks before trousers

gamerwidow · 10/05/2019 19:31

Socks first too her OP.

Socks up high for round the house and folded down below boot level when leaving house. Or just trainer socks which would still go on before jeans.

Socks go on last here
