The most important question yet!

Do you dress your top or bottom part first when getting dressed in the morning? Tried getting dressed the other way round this morning and it felt really odd. Just a lighthearted question for fun instead of doom and gloom.

Knickers
Bra
Vest top or thermal top
Tights if I’m wearing them, socks if not
Jeans/trousers/dress depending on where I’m going
Top if no dress

Neither! I have a lovely heated floor in the shower room, so it's underwear on, brush teeth, do deodorant, then either top or bottom first, no rush. If and when I move house I'll have a heated floor as top priority!

I run from the shower with bath sheet round me and switch on the blow heater on top of the drawers beside bed (and yes we have central heating) and dry in front of it. Then dry hair, put various creams, tanning moisturiser on and dry hair. Make up next, then pants bra trousers top and slippers. Then perfume and jewellery. I don't put socks on until I'm going out. Then I rehang all the discarded tops on the bed which I have decided not to wear.

In order -

knickers
bra
trousers
top
socks

Bottom half first unless I've just got out of the shower and then it's the other way round.

Not sure why that is.

NotAGran55 Sun 01-Mar-20 18:27:59

Shower , pants, bra , dressing gown , contact lenses , make-up ,perfume , style hair , socks, trousers , top , earrings, watch , bracelet. Start the day smile

Always bottom half first. No need to keep top half covered with central heating.

grannyqueenie Sun 01-Mar-20 18:21:11

After coming out of the shower it’s always knickers 1st. Then usually nothing else until I’ve perched on the bed to dry my hair. Then it’ll be bra, jeans, socks and a top followed by a necklace and earrings. Stuck in a rut, not much!!

DanniRae Sun 01-Mar-20 15:06:26

Top half first - no particular reason just always been that way grin

SueDonim Sun 01-Mar-20 14:25:19

Knickers.
Bra.
Socks.
Bottom.
Top.

It must be done in that order although it is permitted for socks to be put on after the bottom.

Jane none if I can help it! grin

Jump out of shower and dry off quickly. Then on with the top clothes. I apply moisturiser to my legs and feet every morning, so dress the bottom half last.
I couldn't do it the other way round, it wouldn't be right.

annodomini Sun 01-Mar-20 13:37:19

Socks first cos I hate having cold feet. Then pants and upwards.

Calendargirl Sun 01-Mar-20 13:16:44

Pyjamas off, then pants, bra, jumper, socks, jeans, thicker jumper, slippers, hair.
Shower at night, so no shower in morn. I feel clean enough to face the day.

janeainsworth Sun 01-Mar-20 13:07:14

Knickers first then bras
How many bras do you wear at any given time Blueskygrin

I get everything out that I’m going to wear that day. Then just put underwear on first followed by the rest.
Never thought about the order!

BlueSky Sun 01-Mar-20 13:01:17

Knickers first then bras if I'm going out, followed by skirt and top. So yes bottom half first perhaps because subconsciously I don't like my leg but don't mind my bust! grin

M0nica Sun 01-Mar-20 12:57:07

Depends what I am wearing.

kittylester Sun 01-Mar-20 12:55:54

Bottom half, have to save my dh from that sight!!

Bluebelle that's the point, it doesnt matter!

jane1956 Sun 01-Mar-20 12:42:52

how can you keep dressing gown on and get washed before dressing???

BlueBelle Sun 01-Mar-20 12:40:39

I don’t think I have a set routine if I m cold it’s top first if not probably bottom first but like the toilet roll thing ...does it matter ?

Maggiemaybe Sun 01-Mar-20 12:35:36

I'm a rebel. It depends which mood I wake up in.

Davida1968 Sun 01-Mar-20 12:22:32

Despite the central heating, usually my nightie stays on (after washing) while I get my lower half dressed. But it depends on the season - warm days are so much easier!

LadyGracie Sun 01-Mar-20 12:21:49

After my morning shower, I dress my top half then put my knickers on, rub body butter in my feet and legs then finally put on socks and trousers.

TrendyNannie6 Sun 01-Mar-20 12:21:17

Always bottom half first, never ever done top half first
