Confused dressing

Some people wear what they want to wear whatever the weather !
Had a neighbour that used to wear white fitted shorts all year round (and yes, they were well fitted!) thankfully he had the body and legs to go with them!
A friend of my nieces wears black thick tights, and a long black skirt, plus a long sleeved top all year round too>
Oh, and the UGGs, if they were the real ones, being sheepskin are great to wear whatever the weather as they keep your feet at a nice even temperature!

Interesting post about the poor posties chicken. I'd never thought about that. Our postie does a great job and speeds about the place very efficiently with his wee barrow thingy. He always wears shorts too.

While holidaying on The Algarve we took a coach trip. Most on the coach were wearing T-shirts or sleeveless dresses (not the men who were generally in shorts and T-shirt. At on coach stop a lady got on with a fur hat, scarf, woolly coat and gloves - you've guessed it, she was Portugese

Some of these are slightly better than going out to corner shop in pyjamas.

The other day I was sweltering in a sleeveless cotton dress as the temperature went above 30 I saw someone in a padded anorak! It made me feel even hotter!

My Postie says that he always wears shorts because there's nothing worse than having to sit in his van for hours in wet trousers when it's raining. He can always dry his bare skin with a bit of old towel.

I can recall an incident that happened just after I moved to the North East...UK.
Travelling to work one morning in February, I arrived at the station in boots, thick coat, hat, gloves, scarf etc.
A young girl, perhaps early 20's was standing close by in a slip dress, no tights with stiletto heels - her one concession to the biting wind appeared to be the scarf tied around her neck.

I always find it rather embarrassing that in the height of winter we go out with me in a thick coat, scarf and hat - the works whilst dh is in shirt sleeves with no coat!

Going to school in HK we wore gaberdine skirts and blazers plus jumpers in winter.
Visiting in February a few years ago I wore light summer clothes.

I used to smile seeing people (OK young lads) in Sydney wearing shorts and flip flops and gloves, scarf and hat!

My son, being a limey, wears shorts all year round while his Southern Hemisphere wife is smothered in fleeces and long trousers.

In our town centre gardens today I saw a lady in long sleeved striped T-shirt accompanied by presumably her DH wearing baggy shorts at half mast below a large wobbly naked.....stomach and chest. ?

I have heard that it is a competition amongst posties, to see who can wear their shorts into the coldest weather.

What about the Post men/women? Is there some sort of competition going on there, I’ve seen them delivering in their shorts when it’s snowing ? .

I saw a girl out today wearing a sleeves t-shirt, tight mini skirt and fluffy slippers!

I expect some people feel the cold all year round, no matter what the temperature really is, though an anorak seems a bit over the top in this heat.
Then there's me in a sleeveless summer dress.
