How do you feel about turtlenecks? (product, light, pulling, buy)

[Travel'r]

I love the mock turtlenecks, favorite shirts ever! Only like the full ones when they're Casmiere (sp?) or silk, otherwise feel like choking.

I loooove turtlenecks and have them in all colors, all in cotton. I especially love a black ribbed one, I wear it with jeans and with my hair pulled back. Love it, even in Texas!

My best friend told me that when we first met, over 12 years ago, she was kind of leery of me. I'm not exactly sure what that says about me, but it appears that I have some sort of reputation which proceeds me. But, just to show you that I'm not all bad...don't give those turtlenecks and sheets anymore thought. Sleep well.

You have a reputation? Should I be nervous? J/K
I have a reputation around here too. Its not good. ;p

Speaking of reps. I remember one time my Gram who was 4'9 and 80 pounds was on a ladder painting. My uncle who as 6'6 and home from the Marines sassed her. She smacked him right in the mouth with her paint brush,

Anyway. I posted on another thread about getting one as a present and it made me wonder who wears these articles of torture .

I have managed to wear them when I was young and stupid and would suffer for fashion. I cant believe I wore a turtleneck bodysuit with hip hugger bell bottoms. What was I thinking. Now that Im older just the thought makes me twitchy.

I have a theory that they were foisted upon women by a designer that secretly hated us! Thats the only thing I could come up with..... I despise them!
And have you ever seen a gal wearing one with a necklace that would not come all the way out, the charm or whatever would be pulled out of the front and just floating there? Helllllooooooo.......get a mirror!

I'd freeze my arse off without them. An essential piece of wardrobe from November through March.

I think they look great on a girl with a giraffe neck.....other then that.....they belong on a turtle.

I don't like turtlenecks. I honestly, really, don't like anything around my neck much (with the exception of a medium to long length necklace, a loose collar, or the hood of my jacket or coat).

I'm wearing a turtleneck right now. I love my turtle neck sweaters - they're very comfy. I don't like the ones that are too restricting, though. I don't mind the fabric on my neck, I just want to be able to breathe.

As I said, I'm wearing one right now and it's the most comfortable thing I could wear right now. Our building is right on the ocean ((I could go fishing during lunch hour)) so we get the really cold air.

I can't stand turtlenecks.

I find them so suffocating =/

It's like when you're trying to get a top off, and it gets stuck on your head for a minute or so, and you panic....... that's what wearing turtlenecks are like for me.

Evil things...

if it's really cold out then I like the extra coverage but in general I prefer to feel a little more free and comfy with whatever I'm wearing.
