Just thought it would be interesting to see how seasonal your fashion is. I don't really care about the colors, but no shorts and sandals in the cold half of the year.

Just to let you know, the major fashion seasons are Spring and Fall, not Summer and Winter. Spring usually encompasses Summer, while Fall usually encompasses Winter. However, some fashion companies add more minor seasons, particularly with women's fashion. Usually those two additional minor seasons are Pre-Fall and Resort/Pre-Spring. Some even split the latter into two distinct minor seasons.

As for colors, I really don't own a lot of Fall colors since they are not really my style. Plus, since I live in Arizona, I don't have much use for cold weather clothing that is typical of Fall collections.

It isn't so much about colors for me. Even white seems to come into fashion for winter from time to time. And I do own a pair of black shorts for summer.

I like long sleeves in the cooler months. And since I am sensitive to cold, I wear under shirts as well. And I often will top off with a sweater.

In the warmer months, I'll wear short sleeves without an under layer.

But if we are going to a museum or restaurant, I'll often bring a jacket because I know I'll be uncomfortably cold if I don't.

I like sandals, and low socks with walking shoes for the warmer months, and wool socks and walking shoes in the colder months.

But color doesn't figure too much into what I choose to wear. Of course colors are limited to what I have been able to find to buy.

I live in western WA, where we have 2 seasons: rain (9 months) and summer (3 months).

"Spring" and "fall" here both feel the same, but I will try to bust out some colors corresponding to the seasons when they roll around. In April-ish, I'll try to get in some floral underneath my cardigans and try slightly brighter lipsticks and blushes. In October-ish, I'll try to get in some neutrals and darker tones, and try darker eye makeup and lips.

While Spring and Fall usually feel similar, the rule is to include most of the warm weather clothes in the Spring collections to last through the summer, while most of the cold weather clothes are included with the Fall collections to last through winter.

Around here lately, we have two seasons - warm, and hot. I never have to store away my shorts and tanks, and have little use for an overcoat or sweaters. I only wear coats, scarves and gloves when I travel to Europe. There are no color rules around here, anything goes. I tend to pick things in darker colors, solids if possible. Not interested in flashy, look-at-me garments.

It's warm and hot most of the year here. I wear whatever I want unless it is a specific event where a certain level of dress is expected. I can wear half and 3/4 sleeves at just about any time.
