Do you generally dress for comfort or to look good?

At home, it's all about comfort. When I go outdoors, I try to dress for both. If dressing for something fancy, then I try to do both again, but looking good takes priority.

When I am home, I almost always dress for comfort.

However when I go out, I mostly dress for good looks.

Very occasionally I will dress for comfort when going to my volunteer job as we wear aprons over our clothes so they are not seen.

When it is really cold I prefer to dress for comfort also, as I feel the cold and dressing for good looks in winter often leaves me feeling cold.

I don't see why this is an either/or situation. Surely it is possible to be comfortable AND look good? I believe that most of the time that is what I do, though to be honest I don't really care what anyone else thinks of my appearance so the looking good side of things is purely to please myself rather than worrying about the opinions of others.
I don't have different outfits for being at home or being out, it's all one and the same for me. If I like an item of clothing then I wear it, if I don't like it I don't wear it!

Verity -I am not like that -e.g. in winter I wear track suit pants and I would not wear these out of the house as I think they look sloppy. I have good clothes that I would not wear round the house.

I think we are very different in this respect! Whilst I have never left the house in my pyjamas, except when I went into labour in the middle of the night, I just don't own any clothes that I couldn't go out in and feel perfectly smart for any occasion. And everything I wear is comfortable, it has to be as I have various health problems that mean I couldn't tolerate wearing something that was irritating or uncomfy.

I dress for comfort and also for the ease of doing my clothing up,as I have trouble using my hands and fingers .I figure that even my comfortable clothes are still attractive,especially when I am out and about. I tend to be a little less particular when at home by myself though!!! My dogs still love me no matter what I am wearing!!!

Now comfort, and a little dress up too.
My days of glam are gone, and not too soon.
I love being able to keep it simple :)

I hear you, sister! :-))

thank you sister :)

Yep comfort plus at home, make an effort when I go out.

When I was younger I dressed for fashion. These days I primarily dress for comfort. That doesn't however mean that I'm gonna go around looking frumpy in the name of comfort.

Always both but at home its more for comfort

by dwatk

I bit of both - I have to feel comfortable in what I am wearing out otherwise I won't look good in it

by AJ

I believe that if you are dressed comfortably you will generally look awesome! I go a bit of both - I dress in clothes that look good, suit my body and feel comfortable!

Always for both. Comfort often wins.

I try as best as possible to dress for comfort.

As I work from home, I love to dress up when I go out to networking functions, shopping, church, etc. But I do like to be comfortable! As I am a sewer, I do like to make some of my own clothes so it's easy to make them look good and comfortable.

Good looking, suitable to me, when I go out, both Seasons.

At home T-shirt & daggy shorts will do, & trackie-daks in Winter!

I am a comfort dresser.

by bellabirth

I like to look good when I go out so dress accordingly.
I like to be comfortable at home, and usually wear something which is both comfortable and pretty.
I think if you look good, you feel good, even if it is only at home.

I dress for comfort and to be neat and tidy. I have the short round "duck's" disease so clothes are not something I wear with panache. For going out I try for black pants and striking tops to look dressy.
