What Are We Wearing In The Rain And The Gales???

[MayorNaze]

rain = tights and boots - tights dry quicker than trousers innit

all you ladies that let your jeans drag in the puddles - WHY??? tis very strange

SO,as well as tights (thick and grey) and boots (rocket dogs ), i am also wearing:
purple tartan miniskirt
grey longsleeved tshirt
purple cardy with pink and green edges
and about to go and add a pink pashmina and possibly a green jumper as well as the heating has just gone off and i have muchos computos workus to do

bring it, beeeatches

Wellies and a waterproof coat. No-brainer.

are you not cold just in wellies Riv?

or rocking the flasher look there ShatnersBassoon

naturally i wear a coat when i go out but since i am STILL WAITING HEMHEM MNHQ for a free posh coat my current outdoor attire is really not worth mentioning :(

The house. I have no intention of going outside in this.

As for the trousers dragging in mud question, unfortunately I have no choice as I am a 5ft shortarse and am fat as well. All clothing manufacturers have decreed that if you're short you have to be a size 16 at the most. If you're fat you have to be at least 5ft 11. T'is the law.

70s wool coat with sheepskin collar

Black leather skirt, black polo neck

Thick tights

Ankle boots (with red thermal socks- not seen)

And a clear plastic rain bonnet

rockbird that is no excuse - wear 3/4 lengths. or skirts!

tethersend - are you her majesty?? actually i have to admit that i do secretly covet a see through headscarfy thing - t'would sit nicely on the 'do...

Indigo skinnies tucked into black mid-calf boots
Breton t-shirt
Statement necklace
Long grey cardigan

And when I did school run I added a barbour rain hat and timberland duvet coat.

DD looked the best though in shiney red rain mac and matching hat

Yes but.. what do you wear to a job interview in the gales/rain, travelling by bus?? It's hard to avoid arriving windswept, soaked, brolly dripping, shoes muddy from puddles... all that guff about first impressions ha, don't take the weather and public transport into account do they!

I am wearing jeans with last winter's Fatface boots that leak at the seams (bitter emoticon) and an asymmetric hem jumper, with a padded M&S stormwear coat. I have read the mumsy thread and I know I need to do better.

Hmmmm you need Tethers little rain bonnet

God - its a gap in the market . . .

see the tip about the rain bonnet Hmm

wear a large coat that covers everything- prob solved :)

haha x posts tracey - bet you have one don't you

Blue cashmere jumper, tweed miniskirt, thick grey tights, ecco boots, Barbour utility jacket, velvet scarf.

If I'm working outdoors (which I am for most of the evenings this week and next) I will have my Mountain Equipment waterproof coat and Sprayway waterproof pants and either my Brasher or La Fuma waterproof boots.

Just for nipping in to the office to catch up with stuff it will be usual jeans, jumper, converse and my North Face Baker Jacket.

If it is just windy and not raining I will wear my Mountain Equipment duvet coat.

I'm out this weekend so it will be dark jeans and my Belstaff waxed jacket.

short boots
jeans ( in them)
and me old boden mac ( black from last year)
its annoyingly good

God you lot are all so much cooler than me! Unless I'm going somewhere special, I pretty much always put on one of my many identical pairs of jeans, with boots or big wellies if it's raining And a huge rainmac with an enormous hood because I've got no chance of holding up an umbrella with children hanging off every tentacle....

ooh I shall be watching this thread very closely as I'm looking for a warm waterproof coat and waterproof boots (that would also be good in snow if we have it).
I would wear the boots with leggings or skinny jeans, possibly skirts and I prefer knee high. I would also use them on my bike to keep my legs dry.
So.. any ideas? :)

Navy knitted dress
Grey tights

Just walked the dog and it wasn't raining much but very windy! I am now sporting the windswept hair look!

pale grey button neck jumper
black denim mini
black merino tights
pale grey angora slouchy socks
suede ankle boots (not exactly genius in the rain but they seem to have survived, and my feet are still snuggly)

Once again I am channelling 1984

Kept dry on the walk into work in my usual winter coat (lovely belted knee-length grey herringbone) and a chunky slouchy knitted hat (holds in all my hair and doesn't let water through for at least an hour of proper rain - thank you Jigsaw)

Knitted dress, purple and some other colour I can't describe
Purple long cardigan
Tights
Celtic sheepskin boots
Big brown raincoat

Later I shall be donning running gear as too scared of being blown away to venture out this morning

Primarni black skinnies
White cami
Charcoal Fat Face jersey tunic
Wellies

I need a waterproof coat.

I've been hiding indoors wearing a short jersey dress, leggings and a big long purple cardi. At one point I put leg warmers on! But took them off to do the school run . When I did venture outside I put on a knee length lined and padded waterproof coat and some tall black winter snow boots. The boots aren't the best looking but they're waterproof, comfy and very warm

Black skinnies
Black Rocket Dog bikers
Black bell silk top
Pat Butcher gold and black scarf.

My favourite outfit at the mo!
