To dress up on Christmas Day?

[tallastrees]

I'm usually jeans and a jumper person but given I haven't worn anything that doesn't have an elasticated waist and no make up for nine months, I think I may dress up a bit this year. Maybe even straighten my hair 🙊

How will you dress yourself on Christmas Day this year?

Pyjamas all day? Leggings and a baggy jumper? Or dress to the nines?

Why - it’s our favourite relaxing clothes and this year we’re desperate for a lazy day. Dinner has been ordered from Cook so we can have an minimum effort meal.

I put on makeup for the photos... since one year my dh took my picture, I was in the background of a lovely pic of the kids opening gifts.... and I have never in my life seen anything as grim... so now I make sure to get dressed and do my makeup before I even go downstairs on Christmas day lol... I dont want to have to throw any nice pics of my kids away because I'm in the background looking like an elderly corpse that had a very hard death

We dress up "smart casual". I'll wear a new dress I bought. Men usually wear jeans, dress shirt and chrismassy tie. Kids wear whatever they want.

Jeans and a Christmas jumper. I'm always cold.

I have a velvet t shirt dress ( a short sleeve version of my pulling dress back in the day) so I'll wear that.

enjoyed your description

Always dress up for Xmas day. We don't have many opportunities to dress up, especially not this year so it's nice to.

I will be wearing some form of Christmas loungewear

We need a walk or we all go mad (well some of us), so I can’t stay in pjs. I have bought myself a sparkly jumper and plan to put some makeup on.

I haven't dressed up for Christmas Day since about 1984. As pp said, cannot loll around in pjs either unless ill. So shower, normal clothes, normal hair. It's only a big roast dinner, I see no need to make an effort on the clothes front. However, if you want to, go for it :)

I normally end up in a vest top as it's just too warm otherwise. Not pjs though - I'm not ill. Also will run and do a dog walk so need to get a bit dressed.

Wouldn't wear a sparkly dress as it feels wrong without high heels.

I like wearing something nice (often a dress so that jeans aren’t digging in when I eat a lot) however DH very much likes to be comfortable in trackies so we each do our own thing

This thread has inspired me.

I am also thinking Unicant has seen me in pictures previously 😂 I do not photograph well !

I may pull out a sparkly top for Christmas Day, maybe I will even whiten my teeth 🦷

Dress up here! We always do though.

We wear smart clothes for church and keep them on all day. Not black tie or anything just dress, tights and a bit of makeup for me, and chinos, nice shirt/jumper and jacket (at church, not home!) for DH.

Have got DS (20 months) a very cute cord trousers/shirt and bow tie ensemble from M&S
