Perfect moving in present to yourself! Doooooo it!
Get it!! I have been coveting (and that is the perfect word to use btw
) onesies since I first saw Peter Griffin wear one in Family Guy YEARS ago I need more now. One onesie just isn't enough. They are soooooo cosy. Mine's got pockets and a hood too. All soft and strokeable

Onesie people - they are strictly for loafing in your own house, right? You don't actually leave the house in them, do you?
I may have to just buy a bib instead

I don't get it. What is the benefiftar the onesie over a big old jumper and tracky bottoms? An outfit that allows my top half to stay warm when I go to the loo.

Can't stand wearing tracky bottoms.
They should only be worn on a track

Or whatever, then. Pyjama bottoms. Leggings. Soft trousers of your choice.

Pajamas are the only tempting option. Never had a pair. There's always a first time for everything though.
I would rather pull my toenails out than leave the house in it. Absolutely private lounge wear
(I found myself putting my hands together like paws last night and wiggling my bum like a total and utter fucking twat)
Beware - it might turn you into a bit of a dick at first.
I have always hated clothes around my middle. I buy jims that are wayyy too big for me for this reason. Onesie has no waist thingy - comfy as FUCK. Has a hood too, AND POCKETS

Having second thoughts now! Gonna have a look at the catalogue again when I get home and see if my tastes have become confused by novelty, which is often the case...

I know - I too thought like that...then I bought one. As above it has no waist and until you don't have a waist band on, you don't notice the freedom of not having one. It has no gaps for draughts, it is constant heat - in a trackie bottom/big jumper scenario one end will be warmer than the other and even if it's indiscernible, you'll notice the joy of all over same regulated heat once you are onesie'd up. Mine has feet attached - because they are like leopard paws
....but to be honest, they're definitely one size fits all, hence a bit big....so i tend to still wear longish fluffy (purple ) slipper boots, no problem, the onesie feet stuff in the slippers just fine, good for walking about the house. But if i were to be in prone mode, languishing with a glass of zinfandel and a good book, I'd be slipperless and enjoy the comfort of warm as toast tootsies flapping about in the leopard paws.....am i selling the look??I like to think of it as a cross between a deep sea divers wet suit and a three month old's babygro - I mean, think about it, what do they get from the wearing of their self style onesies...practical, comfortable and akin to a second skin - all the benefits of a layer of heat, whilst feeling like you are naked.
It is most definitely indoor wear - although i can't totally deny possibly shoving on a long coat and a pair of Uggs and sashaying up the garage for milk in the snow last year....or maybe it was all a dream. I bet no one has bought one and regretted it - take the plunge and be that fluffy deep sea diver.

yeah but - i've never felt discomfort from my waistband. my bra, sometimes, yes. but i can't go braless so there's no escaping that.I know - I too thought like that...then I bought one.

seriously, though - you have to strip off the top half whenever you go to the loo. in winter.

I used to have truckers' overalls as a kid - I fucking loved those - went everywhere in them, including ponds, rivers and marshes.
They had a badge that said 'keep on trucking' on them and they were boss.
They were preceded by some military-style camouflage overalls (same as a onesies - hate that word!) that we used to love playing army in the woods in. Except my mum used to ruin the effect by making us wear CND badges so people didn't think our parents were endorsing militarism or summat

clicker mentioned Uggs. Burn her!

You don't strip it off - mines got a full length zip down the front, so you just unzip it like any top, they are baggy enough to only need to unzip it a bit ( actually a few inches and job done ) and it falls down in a cloud of rapture and fleece....and I really know what you mean, waist bands resting on me had never been a cause of pain in the arsedness - until i didn't have one, it's like swanning around the house like a cocooned butterfly - and mines only a £15 cheapo from Primarni - best £15 I've spent on lounge clobber.

The weren't even real Uggs - they were imitation pink ones belonging to my daughter - four inches of snow seemed to strip me of shame.

I'm pretty happy lounging around in jeans with a belt, so maybe I should just stick to them.
Except I often end up with food/flour/cocoa on them, and recently, I've been wearing those jeans to work as my trousers are too cold.

Oh fuck.
If it had a massive peace sign on the back, I'd probably buy it to wear at Xmas to wind up my mum

The stripping off for the loo is a problem I'll admit. However, when we did up our bathroom last year, the trendy towel heater/radiator we ordered was rather bigger than we thought for our tiny bathroom. We fitted it anyway and if the heating is on it's the warmest room in the house so it's not a problem for me personally
And spanglechick I'm generally a leggings and hoody girl, but you know sometimes you just need a bit if variety

you're not stripping off....if you had pj botoms on you'd have to drop 'em, you're just unzipping the top - in colder weather i have been known to put a thin tshirt under the onesie - that'd keep the chill off?

but you have to take it off your arms, no? surely the whole thing has to end up mid thigh so you can sit on the loo, and you're sat there in your bra. in. winter.
