What goes on first?

What do you put on first after your shower (after the Chanel No 5, I mean)? Men DH puts his socks on - I have always imagined that is a male "flight or fight" reaction, whereas for me it's the pants. Could that be a similar motive? hmm Anyway, what goes on first?

I expect you meant ' various' [ smile]

Grumppa, it's not easy!! grin

Knickers first then bra. Then I don't mind if anyone other than DH is around.

I've only been into hosptal fo day surgery recently and have kept knickers handy until the last possible minute.

Nighties. Long ones!

When I was having my knees replaced we were all wearing knickers under our nighties. If I'm climbing in and out of bed at home I haven't got several strangers watching me. (Well, not usually anyway) grin

Whilst on the subject, well sort of, what do people wear as hospital inpatients? I have always gone for the pyjama option, but with knickers underneath. Not sure why, as I wouldn't wear pants under pyjamas at home. I couldn't stand the vulnerability of a nightie! It's 15 years since I was last in hospital (to have my tonsils out) so what is the current fashion? smile

By the time I've woken up, I'm dressed! So I have no idea?confused

Maniac Sun 26-May-13 19:51:02

always bra first then pants ,top, trousers or skirt.Socks later if it's cold or I'm going out .Like to wear my Fit-flop sandals indoors which I can't wear with socks

It is totally daft and daft is fun! I really like daft threads so there! wink

grumppa Sun 26-May-13 19:38:52

I've just read the thread too - fascinating.

Kittylester, dare one ask how you keep manage to keep your towel round you while you engage in all that strenuous activity before getting dressed?

As for me, glasses are on already, after bathrobe and before face is dry. Then it's pants, socks, shirt, trousers.

Ana Sun 26-May-13 19:17:38

Yes - me! grin

j08 Sun 26-May-13 19:16:24

grin I will.

Is anyone actually reading the thread? grin

Ana Sun 26-May-13 19:15:16

Why not? Leave us alone with our underwear dilemmas if you don't want to join in, jingl...hmm

j08 Sun 26-May-13 18:59:53

FFS who caresx if you put your drawers or your bra on first?! #why???!!!

j08 Sun 26-May-13 18:59:14

I don't. #boring

Ana Sun 26-May-13 18:36:57

I think a nationwide survey is called for....grin

vegasmags Sun 26-May-13 17:48:50

I haven't really got very nice feet, so perhaps that's why I cover them first, but I think it's more of a ready-for-anything attitude. Perhaps this whole subject is worthy of deeper, academc research - can't be any dafter than some topics grin

gillybob Sun 26-May-13 17:36:45

I have studied this for a day or two and agree with Ana I think it's a case of covering the "rudest bits first" so it's knickers, bra, then top. Socks left until last (if at all) as I love bare feet. smile

glassortwo Sun 26-May-13 17:27:37

No I still call them knicks. bags

Bags Sun 26-May-13 17:18:59

Socks last. Always. Well, before shoes obv. Whether the knickers or the bra go on first depends on the bra. If it's a pull-on Sloggi, then that goes on first because I step into it and pull it up. If it's an opening bra, then the knickers go on first. Does everyone except me say pants now? (not that I've read all the posts).

vegas tried again this morning and no I am not sure, these threads certainly bring out information you would rather keep to yourself. wink
