I've always been confused as to whether I should tuck my gloves under my sleeves or have them over-lapped. I've seen plenty of people adopting either method, which is best?

It depends.
Are you using the gloves to perform rectal exams on animals at the zoo? If so, over the sleeves would be my suggestion.

Over, when/if you fall the snow doesn't rush up your arm they also tend to stay in place rather than your sleeve rising up your arm.

Have they got a piece of string tying them together and threaded through the jacket arms that your mum put on to stop you losing them ? 
If so you may be limited on how you wear them.

SMALLZOOKEEPER, If you're wearing nice white "instructor" gloves with a prominent logo such as ESF, FES, EFS, SEF, SFE, SLF, ETA, FTP, FtheIRA, FtheUDF, ITPAC (& DHDCdM), DBsSITWs or DYTICUTCOABB on them then of course you wear them on the outside.
In most other cases you wear them on the inside.
(Points for working out the acronyms).

SMALLZOOKEEPER, I'm thinking you'd be better off with mittens.
And always put them on before you go anywhere near a computer keyboard

I have a pair of Reusch gloves that Martin Bell once wore during his downhill racing days.
So...
MY EX-WORLD CUP SKI GLOVES go over the jacket. Anything else is just wrong.

Jackets should be tucked into gloves just as 'salopettes' should be tucked into socks.

I suspect that your jacket sleeves actually fasten together around the back with a couple of leather buckles, Houdini style....

You know it makes sense.

Gaffer tape the joint between glove and sleeve to keep the snow out.

Spyderman, I thought the modern approach was to use velcro for that purpose

comprex, Still waiting for my new cert after almost 3 months. Wish I'd kept my old one up even when I wasn't shooting. There's a lovely Beretta Silver Pigeon III sporter with my eye on it...

Gloves should never be tucked into jackets (except liners).
On the pratical side, cold air could still go up the jacket as the opening is facing the wind, on the other side it just looks rubbish!
Just do the jacket cuffs up and have the gloves over the jacket, job done.

Saloppettes should always be inside teh boots. This helps to eliminate any slight heel lift and saves time when you are tightening your boots up between runs (no pain no gain).

I do wear socks on the outside of my boots though, can't get them scratched!!

Not sure about gloves but underpants should always be worn on the outside of one one piece suits / fartbags.
