favorite item of clothing in the cold weather

I have recently found sheepskin Emu boots worn as slippers indoors keep me warm and toasty. I only use them indoors and find them better than a hat for keeping me warm. Previously my feet were always freezing. I also wear a thin scarf indoors and a thicker one outdoors

MAIR i got mine from Edinborough Wool shop.

I'll bet it wasnt cheap there. Ive still got my decade old Matalan one!

In case of snow I've just dug out my Moonboots , they are from the early 1980s!!

A roomy faux shearling coat fully lined with faux fur - Jaeger but bought is perfect condition through Ebay. Also M&S thermal leggings worn under trousers.

For everyday wear I love my Ugg type boots. I would love to have Uggs but my feet are too wide but thes have zips and fit perfectly. Also love my faux sheepskin hooded coat from QVC.
For dressy wear I have a heavy ,black , calf length wool coat from TK Maxx that I bought two winters ago . I tried it on and hummed and hawed over it and left it as it was £200 reduced from £400. However I did not find a thing I liked as much so went back a couple of days later and it had been reduced to half price. It has a detachable black fur collar but I prefer it without the collar.

LOL just like you a zipped fleece waistcoat!
Brilliant! They used to be cheap and easy to find in shops like Primark, Matalan and Peacocks (as was). Whats happened to them?

The original Buff was designed in 1991, when motorcycle enthusiast and textile expert Juan Rojas came up with a simple seamless microfiber garment that could be worn at least twelve different ways in both warm and cold conditions.

From trial runners to Olympians, divers to motorcyclists, the original Buff is worn all over the world by countless athletes. It’s an insulating face mask on the ski slopes, a sweat band on the trails, a neck protector in the heat or a scarf in the cold. When you’re riding or skiing it can go under your helmet, in dusty conditions it will protect your face, or, if you just need a headband- no contest.

Mine is currently most used as a balaclava underneath my cycling helmet to keep face, neck and ears warm. Marvellous piece of kit.

Walking the dog - my down filled coat - it's black which doesn't suit me so I wind a red tartan scarf round my nec k and bung on a red. Woolly hat and gloves. Wear this a lot.

For best I have a long camel coat with fur collar which extends down to the hem on the button edge white fur hat with camel flecks and leather gloves. Had it all for donkeys years. Never wears out, because I hardly ever wear it as it never cold enough.

I wear a fleecy scarf all day everyday in the cold weather, also long sleeved thermal vests and always gloves my DH says my hands are cold

A sort of cape/shawl thing that I bought in Tescos. I throw it on over what ever I'm wearing. It's lovely and cosy.

My favourite item is my new Lands End down coat.

A long tube of fleece with soft wiring around one end.You pull it over your head and can roll it over as a scarf or bend the wire to keep it over your ears.You can also pull one end up as a hood and the wire gives it shape.Only had it a couple of months but wouldn't be without it now.

A black fur (not real) fleece from Blacks
I also wear padded non slip socks in doors and they fit in side my boots so have lovely warm feet when I go out.
If my feet & hands are warm then I'm warm
So gloves are a must.

Padded gilet thingy from Joules. Have had it a couple of years and absolutely live in it in winter.

And my Celtic Sheepskin house boots. On 2nd pair now. Live in those indoors, too.

Isn't that a willy-warmer, Stansgran?

Ancient Aran cardigan and my NEW sheepskin scuffs.
Isn't a buff a muff you wear when stark naked for modesty purposes? Like those comic male strippers with balloons. Oh dear pour me a gin please

"Icebreaker" merino long sleeved vest and for outside a Turtledove (reclaimed cashmere) buff.

Glad you asked that Daphne - I was wondering what Buff was!

Apologies Izabella what is a Buff? Clearly guilty of confusing it with "the buff"!

My newish grey and silver lurex jumper.(I am finding it hard to take this off for long enough to wash it! )
It was reduced down from £95 to £47 in EAST's sale and I had £35 of gift vouchers from a John Lewis so it effectively only cost me £12!
It is a beautifully soft wool mix without being scratchy and quite glittery which lifts my spirits!

A Faux shearling coat with a hood. I've had it for years and every summer I consider throwing it out, but don't! It still looks like new and as soon as the temperature drops out it comes.

My DD bought me something similar to that this Christmas Greyduster . I think she found it in one of the Christmas markets. Its wonderfully warm. It has a kind of bib front and back and the top bit is a long funnel that you can pull up or down as far as you like. Its lovely and warm and ideal for my beach walks.

My lovely winter coat from Hobbs- navy blue full length in wool, smart and very warm. (bought it in the sale last year and still like new).

Agree with the Buff, izabella - so versatile. That and my snood type scarf are my go to items in cold weather.
