     Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

    I have this same problem and I have no mods/cc in my game, my game is up to date and I regularly delete my localthumbcache and have also repaired my game.  It happens every time I load a save or when I return to my game from Create a Sim.  I comment on it in some of my Seasons LP videos which I can link if you'd like to see. 

    Thanks and regards,
    Jennifer

    Did some testing on this and while it's not happening consistently for me (and not from CAS), I can see what you guys mean.

    Seems to only happen when the temperature is cold though.

    The opposite can happen - when I loaded a game while it was summer in the middle of a heatwave, everyone who'd been sleeping was standing next to their beds in hot weather clothing.

    It seems like whenever a lot loads up, it refreshes what they wear based on temp.

    I have it inconsistent as well. Happens but it isn’t every i time I load. Also has to be cold enough for it to happen. Hot weather outfit was not an issue for me. They were never in that upon loading for no reason.
