My style is completely unremarkable and I don't stand out in any way. I don't wear dresses as I don't find them as practical as trousers, though they make a lot of sense when it's really hot (which isn't very often).

Today I am wearing an M&S black polo neck jumper with blue jeans and white trainers. My wardrobe is full of t-shirts, leggings, jeans, plain jumpers (round necks and v necks), some good quality and some cheap. I do appreciate quality fabric, cottons, wools and silks, so if I see something that's good quality at a reasonable price, I'll get it.

Polo shirts or t-shirts which get progressively scruffier as the years go by till the kids buy me some for Xmas or b’days.

Jeans ditto till they get a hole in the arse which makes me replace them.

Trainers mostly.

I don’t own a suit, never having worked anywhere that required one. If I need to dress up I have a kilt.

Oh, I wouldn't say that. The seagull shit was a stylish and highly unusual accessory the other day.

Most of my wardrobe is from NEXT these days. However, during lockdown I did discover leisurewear from Sports Direct and the comfort of leisurewear is not to be underestimated. :lol:

Generally Sainsbury's jeans (used to be imported for me but I'm hoping that the various smaller sizes will get some use this summer :D ) - I ride the bike in them too. but am making an effort to fit into the road 'proof' jeans I have. TBF, Sainsburys jeans have held up pretty well on the odd occasion I've hit the deck!!

For the last 4 years I'm mostly worn outsize tshirts, outsize long sleeve tshirts or (in the summer) big floaty strappy tops. All generally covered with a zip front hoodie

I hate that I haven't been able to wear anything 'nice' because either I can't get it on or can't get it off :( :(

But with more mobility comes more ability. So hopefully soon I can wear pretty dresses again (with road proof jeans under and a bike jacket over for biking days :D :D )

COVID times hardly bring out the sartorial elegance in any of us - so COVID lock down wear (which involves a lot of dog walking).
Selvedge jeans , t shirt - stripes or some motorcycle allegiance , timberland / redwing or BM boots or shoes,

Oh, either boots in the winter and Salamon hill/walking trainers when it's dry ( or at least, generally after April when it should be dry!)

A lot taller Bob Hoskins does shorts and casual, possibly with shorter hair. The wife had hers cut and, although I asked her not to have too much taken off, there was at least 6" of it on the floor once the deed was done. Looks somewhat similar to Worzel Gummige. Oh well, 2 can play at that game so the clippers came out and it's now No.3 all over.
Childish I know but it felt good at the time! Just need to be careful with that there sun, thankfully there's not been much of it!

It varies.

If I am not going outside it is probably scruffy baggy patched jeans and a tee shirt, or sweat shirt if it is cold. Either way it will probably be old, stained, and with a smidgin of paint somewhere. Holes may be visible.

If I am going out it will likely be jeans and tee/sweat but cleaner, smarter and often brightly coloured.

If I am meeting people it will be appropriate, anything from suited and booted to smart casual, but almost certainly brightly coloured in the shirt/tie department.

I forgot to mention my evening attire. After sunset, I'm straight in the bedroom and lose the stuff below my waist and the sarong is worn.

I just look forward to it every day.
