AIBU to complain about my reindeer jumper?

I bought a lovely, festive reindeer jumper from Sainsbury's at the weekend, to wear to school for Christmas and at my book club Christmas get together tonight.

The prosecco flowed as did the jokes about my jumper. I hadn't noticed but the 2 of the six bells on the reindeers antlers were positioned, well I'm sure you can guess, at a certain level either side of my chest. There was much hilarity at this and a lot of tweaking, which is fine for an evening with a bunch of girls. But what do I do about school? I can't wear the jumper now with a straight face. Do I cut the bells off and reattach them at a less obvious place? Do I speak to Sainsbury's and maybe help someone else avoid a potentially embarrassing situation?

Grin i have a Christmas dress with a huge stag print on it. It took a few "nice rack" comments for me to realise the rather prominent positioning. I want to add bells now!

Thank you for all your comments. If it was someone else with the jumper I'd be all for the big bells too. I will wear it, but think my face will be as red as the jumper! I'm just worried about the year 6 boys and the 2 male teachers in school.

That's a fabulous jumper, I love it. I would, er, move those two bells though Grin

Bet you won't get much eye contact wearing that!
Hypnotizing, eh?

They have one in Lidl with bells on and I thought the placing was also quite risque.

Although I think it might have been designated as menswear.


I think you just have to brazen it out.....not your problem if they have a smutty mind. ;)

That is great. But I'd swap the bottom two bells each side around, no way could I brazen that one out, but fair play to you if you can live out your career as Jingle Tits Grin

I'd just tie streamers round them and own it personally Grin

I think you should buy more of those jumpers to give to family and friends. Preferably wrapped like this. Grin
Or, just move the bells to a less nipply position.

I have laughed more at this than I should have

Defiantly would have to move them Grin

Grin I was expecting big bells but the fact that they're small makes it even better. Wear it and feign ignorance!

I think you should not only wear it like that, but develop a habit of 'absentmindedly' pinging them to make them ring.

Love the wrapping paper. Will look out for some of that.
