Christmas Jumpers- Love them or hate them. Any 'nice' ones out there?

I know , I know ....... "nice Christmas Jumper" is an oxymoron.

I had a quickie browse online , not sure what I'm looking for ( haven't looked in Primark yet)

I don't want to spend a load , don't want anything thick or bulky .

I have last years ( Tesco F&F black chenille with gold stars) which will be re-graded to "wear over the festive period" jumper so not wasted .

I don't like:
Non Christmas colours ( IMO) so no pink, lime,turquoise, grey
No pugs, unicorns, Prosseco, llamas,rainbows
No "Merry Christmas ya filthy animal"
Nothing rude , I don't want Christmas puddings over my boobs

Anyone bought a jumper yet or seen anything nice ?

**and before I get the ^adding to landfill, cheap one-day-fashion , I do re-use mine but previous years on other days , not the 25th

I got one it Matalan last week. It won't be to everyone's taste though.

I got a lovely one in next last year 🤷‍♀️

Next often has nice ones.
I have to admit I am, and always have been, rather fond of Christmas jumpers.
And I have decided this year to go all in. I want me and DH to have matching ones and preferably matching ones of the dogs too.

On yes. I'm going all in this year ;)

Ooh I'm tempted now! I like that Matalan one but I'm fussy about what it's made of. Does it feel nice?

@TheHodgeoftheHedge DH and I have matching ones! We've worn them every year since buying them in 2012. Trying to get DS a matching one now.

Last year I saw one in Asda online that had tiny sequinned reindeer on a black background . Couldn't find instore though.

Hadn't thought of Next (I know my DD bought one there a few years ago, wool mix but ££)

Off to browse ...

I saw some quite nice ones in M&Co recently

Aaaah glad I’m not the only one @DreamingofSunshine ;)

Next online has masses

I want to get matching Christmas jumpers for me and DH and the dog - where do they sell them? [santa]

I love a Christmas jumper (season starts tomorrow Grin).
Agree Asda & Tesco have had some nice ones in past years. Matalan’s offerings haven’t grabbed me before, but I like the red “LOVE” jumper in their recent ad - Christmas-y but totally wearable all year round. Also try new look maybe?
FavouriteSoul Please report back if you find human/dog matching jumpers. I may be getting a puppy next week, and so we really, really need matching jumpers DH might not agree, but there’s every chance he will be utterly oblivious.

I have a joules one which is navy blue with sheep on it. The sheep have antlers!

I also have a red striped Breton top with"jingle belle" on, but perhaps too tacky for you!

@MrsElf

I have found matching dog and human jumpers - studio.co.uk - and I have ordered mine already [santa]

MrsElf · 07/11/2019 18:06

Thank you FavouriteSoul. Puppy has arrived - I will do some shopping Grin
