Are you a winter or summer dresser?

[madammecholet]

I am most defintely winter, yes sireee. I cannot stand all the flimsey material and flesh showing. I struggle. It takes me such a long time every morning, and sometimes I end up looking a right royal yummy mummy mess and a half. I long for Sept.

I am far far far far happier in jeans/long boots/jacket combo.

Am I alone?

Winter! I love thick tights and leather boots, scarves, a nice winter coat, thick knits, and jersey dresses. I also love winter fabrics - velvet and tweed, and the colours - gray, plum,etc. I love being able to have bare legs in summer, however that doesn't make up for the sheer stress that I connect with summer dressing!

I used to prefer summer colours, and lighter dressing but age has mellowed me. Now I love winter dressing - I need the coverage and have come to love subtle colours.

[dearprudence]

Winter, definitely. Dresses and biker boots. And scarves. And jackets. Oh yes, definitely winter.

[YouDoTheMath]

Although I should add that in summer I LOVE maxi dresses...

[Thehusbandsatcricketagain]

winter all the waaaayyyyy,I love jeans,chunky jumpers,skirts with wooly tights,boots (long & ankle) & jackets,with scarves & a hat :o

[YouDoTheMath]

Winter, winter, winter!

Love the season, hate the heat of summer and the cheap, skimpy clothes.

Even when I was size 8 I preferred winter clothes.

We're English y'see

[MarshaBrady]

Favourite weather for the best outfit is sunny and crisp, so I can where a big, plush, thick scarf up to my chin but not a coat.

[madammecholet]

I am dreaming of a thick extra long knitted scarf already - a la knitted by Beryl here..

[Hellishday]

I too am crap at summer.
Just come back from a week on the Algarve having agonised for days about what to take.
I braved my body in a bikini for the first time at 51.....nobody screamed or ran away.
I love my boots, thick tights, layers, scarves......I feel very exposed in summer.
And as usual I have come back paler than I went due to the ST Tropez I had last Friday.

I love summer when it is proper sunny, a nice dress and a tan is lovely. but wardrobe wise I'm more of a winter dresser. I have so many coats and pairs of boots. I buy coats each year but usually every 2 or 3 years I will spend more on a really good one, I always get the wear out of them for a good few years. also I love hats

[BikeRunSki]

Winter.
Give me corduroy, chunky knits and boots anytime.

Give me dark red, purple and green. Long sleeves, tights and a wooly hat.

[SecretNutellaFix]

Winter. I like feeling "dressed"

[TrillianAstra]

I would love to dress for the summer if the summer weather could be consistent.

[KimberlyClark]

oh deffo winter

tights, dresses, layers, jumpers - so many more options!

you won't have may have noticed the lack of what am i wearing threads started by me over the summer months :(

viva la winter

[SchnitzelVonKrumm]

Winter. Am crap at summer.

[FrancesFarmer]

I'm an Autumn dresser, I love Autumn clothes.
When it gets properly cold in winter, I just pile on layers of knits so it's not that stylish.
My spring clothes would be similar to my Autumn clothes but with less emphasis on leafy colours.
I don't put much effort into summer dressing. I have a few nice sundresses but the weather is only warm enough for them a few days a year here in Ireland.

[chocoroo]

Gosh, I must be alone. I hate winter dressing, particularly wool and long sleeves.

I tend to buy lots of cardigans with 3/4 sleeves, wear opaque tights and carry on as I was in summer.

Not that I can really get away with short sleeves (bingo wings) but I just can't abide being having thick fabric on my arms.

[madammecholet]

anyone got the perfect knitted/winter dress they want to share....I am on the prowl... has to not be mumsy tho, preferably black...NO patterns.??

[madammecholet]

minx I'm in an organic cotton skirt here......ARGHHHHHHH

[pointydog]

Winter, but I suspect most brits are. Easier to dress for a season that lasts about 7 months than for a season that lasts for a few scattered weeks.

[LauLauLemon]

You're not alone. I love thick opaque black tights with dresses and I even wear them in the summer with cardi's. I love flat boots, berets and pretty scarves, nice coats and thicker dresses.

I can't wait for autumn. I don't mind the cold but I hate rain, ice and snow. I can't dress for those.

Millie - control pants will sort out your tummy for under tunics etc.
