Is everyone still in winter clothes?

'cos I am.

Apart from last week's heat wave, I have yet to discard my thermal HeatTec tops, my woolly socks, boots and scarves. How some people wear no socks and ballet flats etc is beyond me.

I'm not putting the heating on either. Ignores fact that I am currently hugging the aga.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 14/05/2013 18:22

:) I rest my bum on the oven whilst dinner is cooking.

KatieScarlett2833 · 14/05/2013 18:26

Yes and am sick to the back teeth of wearing them. It's grim.

dexter73 · 14/05/2013 18:30

Sooo cold!! Heating on, jumper on, socks and slippers on. Still have the winter duvet on the bed too!

bella65 · 14/05/2013 19:08

Phew Smile Thank goodness it's not just me. I am wearing a thermal vest, cashmere polo neck and when outside a parka and scarf and gloves.

Heating has never been off yet.

I was quite pleased at being able to wear my Becksondergaard aubergine stars scarf today, I got it in the Jan sales and haven't worn enough Smile

I went for leather jacket, black beanie and scarf, so didn't feel too wintry but was cosy enough. It's not that cold. Managed ballet flats.

Today I left the house in khaki chinos rolled to the ankle with leopard print heels and a white T and big scarf.

I have been bloody freezing all day.

Em, I've managed to swap to non-thermal socks and Converse and stopped wearing scarves and gloves, but that's as far as it's gone!

bulletproofgerbil · 14/05/2013 19:44

Yup, Uggs, warm socks, jumper, long sleeved t shirt, thickish jeans and a jacket. And I was still chilly. 2 hail storms, numerous rain showers, windy. :(

Back in wintery clothes here too, packed coat away though, not getting it back out. I was depressed about the change in the weather until I saw the size of my arse in a pic on FB taken on the beach last weekend (I thought the skirt was flattering Sad). The filthy, inclement weather gives me another few weeks to try and slim down Wink.

bunnymother · 14/05/2013 22:05

The heating is still cranked up here. And I bought myself a rain hood today. I could cry, it's so grim.

Notcontent · 14/05/2013 22:27

Yes. Was wearing a trench coat last week but have now swapped back to a light winter coat. Heating on. Very grim.

MegBusset · 14/05/2013 22:30

Yes. I have been wearing the same four jumpers in rotation since last October. They might make a full annual cycle at this rate.

pumpkinsweetie · 14/05/2013 22:32

Yup, was in summer gear until yesterday when the weather had another episode. Today heating has gone back on, and dressing gown is too. At this rate i don't think they'll be a summer as we haven't even had a spring!
