Fed up with dressing for this rain 😩

[MakemineaGandT]

I want to wear my gorgeous wool coats, fluffy blanket scarves, wide leg trousers, suede boots etc etc.

Instead it’s another day wearing my old skinny jeans because they’ll tuck into boots, my rain-proof parka etc. So bored of it!

I'm moving to Spain. Can't stand it any more, it's literally rained every day since mid October.

Yes - I bought a new rain proof parka at the start of winter and I am so glad I did!

Me too. Plus I want to go more than 3 hours without my hair turning into a frizzball.

I bought a hood, not new coats, just a hood!

Same here! I bought a lovely wool Sezane coat at the start of winter but hardly worn it as it never stops raining and need a waterproof with a hood every time I leave the house. Also have hair that just goes limp and frizzy at the first sign of moisture.

Where are the cold crisp icy days?

I just want some sun! I'm dressing like the weather grey and dreary!

I can't remember the last time I saw a cold sunny day or needed my sunglasses.

I have gone out today in my waterproof Mountain Warehouse boots and I don't even care. I rest my case.

Amen to that. This is the most depressing winter ever! And will the wind kindly do one, too?

Same here, I’m ready for some bright sunny frosty days.

I like the rain... Hiding under my brolly, stomping in puddles in my big boots.

I hate snow.. I dislike wind.. I hate blazing sun..

So.. you're all wrong

🤪🤣

Im a big fan of suede, this weather is not my friend.

Yep. It's boring. You look at the 10 day forecast and it's rain all the time.

Just want to go for a cold crisp walk in my Fluffy coat, and mittens rather than waterproof stuff with a hood constantly getting blown down while my feet slowly get wetter 😒

Agree. It's miserable. I just want to walk in crisp winter sunshine.
Also, since this is S&B, this wet windy weather is the worst for my frizzy hair.

No rain today! So today I’m wearing a dress, cotton mac, and even needed sunglasses this morning! Hurrah!

I hear you on suede boots. But for everything else, I use a massive umbrella

Massive umbrella and huddling in doorways, seeking sanctuary in nearest café or shop, in extremes phoning husband to collect me (he's retired, he's got nothing better to do) or a taxi.

I have wool coats I don't mind getting a bit wet and others where I wouldn't risk it.

I need to save this thread for directing the cosy winter snuggling people to

I'm fed up with my dog walking stuff never getting dry - my most unattractive dog walking coat is permanently damp, my water proof coat is damp on the inside, my walking boots are stuffed with newspaper to try and dry them out and I'm getting through so many pairs of socks as its too warm to have the heating on so no radiators to dry them on!

I bought some of these as I was fed up of getting wet feet

@Rina66 I love this idea! is the hood bit big enough? I find lots of hoods don't do anything!

Me too, I keep wearing my dated parka because it's got a hood and is warm.

Same here! I have mostly been wearing wellies and my long waterproof coat! Not very stylish at all🙄

I really like my waterproof coat, I don't drive and live in the north west so a good waterproof coat is essential. I do however wish my hair didn't go frizzy at the though of rain and I'm not sure why I thought Adidas gazelles would be a good choice of shoe!

These are £££ (I got mine half price via Sport Pursuit) but they have lasted me nearly 5 years and are brilliant https://www.sealskinz.com/products/starston-waterproof-cold-weather-mid-length-sock?variant=35913901408405

I bought them for a trip to Iceland but have used them for the last 3 years for wet dog walking - game changer! (Don't have to wait for me boots to dry out, either)
