What's wrong with pulling your sleeves down a bit?

theya re odd arent they

I see your wrist warmers and I raise you

this beauty!

WTF?

couldn't live without mine, but then i am nesh and wear them in the house all winter, are great for typing mine are actually gloves though, not just tubey things. i just got new longer ones that go over my elbows :P

Oh wrist warmers are so fecking Brora. They're the sort of thing my mother gives me for Christmas. You open them and go "ookaay.."

next time your mother gives you unwanted brora wristwarmers squeaver you're more than welcome to send them on to me

they are a reaction to coats with farking 'bracelet' sleeves ie half way up yr arms

get a proper coat and, ta-da, no need for them

I bet they're great if you have Raynauds or something, might get some myself

Deal, mf Will you take the bath salts too?

hell yeah

I was given some Brora wristwarmers for Christmas last year and have worn them more than I thought I would. I have a feeling they were a recycled present as when I looked them up on the website to see how much they cost I couldn't find them!

I wear wrist warmers in office in winter as so many sleeves are 3/4 length. Plus we are under the eaves in an elderly attic (and lit by candlelight )

I'll happilt take any unwanted cashmere ones off your hands

I love wrist warmers. I have knitted several pairs and they are brilliant. I have long arms so always have a bit of bare wrist poking out and wrist warms deal with them nicely.

I make much better ones than those M&S ones though!

I too love wristwarmers. I live oop North and work in a draughty, cold reception area and they are great and really cosy. I'm actually going to ask Santa for some cashmere ones this year. And architect DH has expressed an interest for some for when he is out on site in winter and can't wear gloves as he still has to make notes etc. I also confess to wearing black legwarmers over opaques as I find them warmer than boots. (But I am considering a pair of Uggs to secrete my feet in under the desk...)

I also absolutely adore wristwarmers - very practical when you need fingers free but want to cover the rest of your hands.
