I've lived in Toronto my whole life.

In the spring, I usually wear long-sleeved clothes and a sweater. It rains a lot during the spring so you'll always need an umbrella or something with a hood. A raincoat or a jacketis a good idea too. I wear jeans or sweats, casual shoesorsneakers in the spring.

In the summer, I wear shorts, skirts, tee-shirts, tank tops, shoes and sandals, etc. The summers are beautiful. It's not too hot and it's not humid at all. Much better than the summers in South Carolina. When I go to the beach I take a bikini or a swimsuit and flip-flops with me.

In the winter, I dress warmly, especially since I take the TTC (public transportation bus) to school every morning and home every evening. You'veobviously got tohave a thick coat, a scarf, boots, and gloves and ahat if you want (I don't wear gloves or a hat; I just wear a coat and boots, and, sometimes, a scarf if it matches my outfit). I wear sweatpants and jeans for bottoms; sweaters and turtlenecks for tops.

In the fall, I wear turtlenecks or long-sleeved shirts and dark jeans. Fall is my second favourite season - I love all the orange, red, and yellow colours.
