Anything comfortable and practical. And, in this season, anything warm - including half gloves even - to keep my engine warm.
Oh, and don't forget the bunny wabbit slippers! 
Happy translating!

See, I went with 'other' for the same reason...

Depends on the day of the week, the time of day and my mood.
And the weather

It depends on what I have to do that day, but this time of year it has to be something warm. Even in "sunny" Spain, the weather can get pretty chilly!

| Track suit equivalent | Jan 16, 2012 |
I take my dogs out first thing in the morning, plus three more times later in the day, so I have to be dressed enough to be seen in public. Oh, and neighbors do tend to drop in. So I can't get away with pajamas, much as I'd like to.

Normally jeans, shirt and jumper, but...
I have been known, when translating high-flown French prose about perfumes and suchlike, to don a seldom-worn full-length red silk dress, to put me in a different mood that lifts me away from the humdrum daily grind. It's more inspiring than slopping around in pyjamas.

| Ready to go out | Jan 16, 2012 |
This poll is an old one, which I answered sometime ago:
I work at home dressed ready to go out at any time or answer the door.
