I've been thinking about this question for some time so I'll post it

when you get up in the morning, how do you like to dress?. do you like to dress for your mood (if you're feeling good, you wear bright clothes, depressed dark clothes etc), do you like wearing a favorite color what ever the day, or do you just get some clothes out- not really caring about what they are, as long as they match

or, maybe somedays you just put the clothes back on from last night/ yesterday

I like to wear clean clothes each day. I usually don't care about color or style (I like red, but if I'm not wearing it, I'm fine)

I won't wear anything if my skin can't breav in it. even in winter I like to wear stuff that isn't restricting

so what about you

I stick to the same clothes I have worn for over 10 years. I like wearing a pair of jeans, 2 tops (thin strap top then a plain t shirt over that) and a hoodie on every day. I will wash my week's worth of clothes and wear another week's worth then rotate them. Very rare do I wear other clothes. I do wear dressy/nice/smart tops for special occasions. Red too is my favourite colour but I will wear most colours tbh.

I used to be really into brands. Like North Face and Under Armour and Levi’s. Now I’m more into styles. I like flannel and plaid shirts. and I now mostly wear Hollister or Aeropostale jeans or camouflage pants. I used to be really big into hoodies but now I mostly just wear my brown corduroy jacket with the gray fleece sleeves and hood. I usually just wear my brown boots or my black and white Vans instead of my cartoon Vans. I always have a baseball hat on when I go out.

I guess I’m slowly dressing more adult.

Comfortably, casually and one leg at a time. I basically still dress like I did way back in high school. My style has never changed from casual chique; which for me is between grunge and doctor Reid on Criminal Minds.

honestly, I haven't been able to wear jeans for months due to Covid weight. I'm mainly wearing pants with elastic waists. I do have some nice tops. Luckily I'm working from home and meeting with people over Zoom.

I've been on disability for a long time, so I generally don't wear skirts/dresses or fancy blouses, unless I'm going out for a special occasion. In the summer, I tend to wear the same three or four pairs of shorts and some light blouse. The niceness of the blouse depends on if I'll be doing a lot of housework or if I'm going out in public or to an appointment. The rest of the seasons, I tend to wear the same two or three pairs of jeans. I often wear the jeans multiple times before washing. The shirts/blouses are either similar to summer or if I'm chilly, casual cotton long-sleeves.

In the winter when I go out, I have about four gorgeous coats I switch between. In the autumn, I wear my cool brown leather jacket, when I go out. I can't even remember how many compliments I have received on the coats, from both people I know and several strangers. I always give credit to my husband for them, because he's the one that bought them for me. The black one is super stylish. The other two are lovely bright colors (lilac and burnt orange). I do stand out because so many women wear only duller colors or simpler cuts.

Definitely when I'm going out in public to a place I want to feel good at myself (or to flirt with some men), I dress up a little more. I do like to flirt! Before the pandemic, I had a few guys I regularly saw that I hugged and kissed. Now it's 6-feet away, pretty much. It's kind of sad, especially since many of them I'll either not see again, or won't get back to the hugs and kisses with. I'm moving to another continent soon. A lot of proper goodbyes will be missed.

I dress to be comfortable and sometimes stylish - though my idea of stylish is like skinny jeans, oversize T-shirt and converse style trainers. Sometimes I feel lazy and stay in my PJs all day.

I wear either t shirt and stretch pants or Lolita, no in between. Those aren't the only things I'd like to wear but I don't have the money, or body, for all the clothes I want. I make everything look bad.

I don't have any style. I wear jeans and t-shirt or a sweatshirt. When I go shopping, I buy the first thing I can fit into. Most of my clothes are 3-5 years old but for home and garden, they are 10-15 years old and still just fine.

How I dress depends on what I'm doing that day. Dress code where I work is business casual. If I'm meeting with clients I wear slacks and a button down shirt. If I'm working from home i wear shorts and either a tshirt or tank top. I'll start wearing jeans when it cools off.

If I'm working around thuge farm I wear jeans, a shirt that can stand up to hard work and work boots.

I'd say my overall preference is jeans or shorts and an oversized tshirt. This is silly of me, but I can make myself crazy deciding which tshirt to wear. I have stacks of them and can spend inordinate amounts of time deciding which one to wear based on what's on the shirt.

Start the cooler days with sweat pants, turtle neck & either a t-shirt or sweatshirt over that for feeding my horse & mucking. Usually leave it on all day working around the farm. Summer, I replace sweatpants with shorts. I usually just keep those cloths on when I do farm errands.

Lol....I clean up when going out with friends. Just wear nicer pants & tops. No reason to dress up.....casual works for everyone around here works for me too.

I like comfortable clothes, I love wearing a pin a for with my Halloween skull leggings(just wearing it for Halloween) I also wear converse with my track suit when I feel sick. I'm wearing ghost earrings and I love nice t-shirts. Depends on my mood really. Most of the time its track suit & converse.

I dress all the way to the shoes-as I like to say. If I choose to wear sweats and slippers I know its going to be cozy lazy day. If I want to be more focused and productive I dress like I feel(could be jeans and boots to dresses and flats) but nothing that psychologically could influence me into wanting to binge watch netflix or lay around on the couch. I like to look "nice". By that I mean what I think looks nice on me. I love makeup and will also put some one even with the pandemic.

It depends on where I am going and what I am doing. Is it going to work or gym or symphony or grocery shopping ? Obviously all options would require different type of clothes. I have to admit I do have a lot of clothes. And I like to match and coordinate etc

I wear black or navy slacks or capris based on time of year and nice blouses that are flexible for any occasion. When I was going to the symphony, concerts and plays before the pandemic I would dress up. During the summer, I practically live at the pool and in my bathing suit. Year round I wear flip flops (Yellow Box) and have many pairs. I like to be comfortable and stylish.

I dress for comfort. No matter what time of year, I wear short-sleeved t-shirts. And always Big Dog. Cause it fits and has cute logos. I wear cotton pants or shorts. I stopped wearing jeans a year ago.

I pretty much wear jeans and long sleeved shirts or sweaters even in Summer. (It can get to about 115 degrees F here in the Summer). I'll add scarves and beanies in winter and switch from Vans to boots in the winter.
