What are you all wearing Christmas Day?

I'm looking for inspiration!

We're going to my mums so not overly dressy but my first Christmas with my baby (8 weeks) and hoping to get a few nice pics so Pjs are no go.

I'm wearing a sky blue bandage wrap dress but I'm also not 8 weeks post partum. I also live in a hot country and going out for Xmas lunch so very happy to be dressing up and being waited on instead of getting upset that my roast potatoes aren't crispy enough!

Have you got a nice maternity dress you feel comfortable in? Or any top with sequins?

Jakadaal · 21/12/2023 16:33

Black wide leg velvet trousers (elasticated waist for lunch!!) a metallic thread fine knit jumper from Zara. PJs from 7pm onwards!

No nothing fits ... the way I feel I may nip into mullets for a tent 😂

I am wearing a long skirt, black T-shirt and big glam earring because I will be getting hot in the kitchen! But what to look vaguely dressy.

Summer dresses here. Bright and breezy all the way. I love going to Mass and seeing everyone looking so summery. The church looks like a Christmas tree itself.

OopsieeDaisy · 22/12/2023 09:37

Currently 20 weeks pregnant so I’ll probably go for something like maternity leggings with an oversized jumper dress.

ManateeFair · 22/12/2023 11:17

I'm wearing a black velvet skater/tea dress that's very stretchy and very comfortable and hides my pot-belly. It'll be hidden under an apron for most of the day, as I'll be cooking, but I'll feel like I've made a small effort and if you can't cook a roast dressed in velvet on Christmas Day, when can you?

Last year I wore jeans and a loose black sequin top.

Honestly, though, do not beat yourself up about whatever you wear. You had a baby eight weeks ago!! Even if you turned up at your mum's dressed in Santa's sack, you'd still be a complete goddess.

I treated myself to a gold velvet body con dress with balloon sleeves. It’s from ASOS who may still be delivering in time…. I decided trying to dress down my nearly 37week bump was pointless so I am embracing it!!!! I bet you will look lovely whatever you wear. Please try to enjoy the special first Christmas with your baby and try not to feel too self conscious 😀

BettyBakesCakes · 22/12/2023 16:13

I have a sparkly black top I'll wear with leggings (more room for all those roasties!)

DustyLee123 · 22/12/2023 16:14

The same as every day, leggings and a jumper that covers my bum. An elastic waist is a necessity

Tisfortired · 22/12/2023 19:25

Same here, DS2s first Christmas so hoping for some nice family pics :)

I have bought black wide leg trousers and a silver shirt. I’ll be wearing them with trainers (possibly Vans or maybe Santa might bring me new white ones ideally…) I also have a black bow for my hair that some little diamanté studs.

Delivered today was a claret colour very stretchy bodycon with some ruching and little sparkles all over. It's gathered at the chest bit (looks like a swag, I don't know the correct term for this). After a shit year and a major health scare I'm going to dress up in my own house. Nowhere to go, just be my happy self and eat loads.

Tomorrow (Christmas Day) we're at home and I'm cooking (only for 5) but some friends are coming for drinks in the morning I'll wear black cropped leg trousers and a Fairisle cream knit jumper. I agree footwear is a problem if at home as slippers spoil an outfit! On Boxing Day we are going for a family meal in a restaurant and I was thinking of wearing a black leather pencil skirt and some low heeled sandals and possibly teaming it up with a roll neck white jumper or a blouse but not made my mind up yet! I'll get tomorrow out of the way first! Happy Christmas ladies.

Right Ladies, finally had time to sot out my B/Day wardrobe! I'm going to wear a Chloe silk blouse, the black leather pencil skirt and Valli sandals.

Thomasina79 · 24/12/2023 17:34

A dress from monsoon. I was hoping a velvet dress would come by today but it hasn’t . Sob. First world problem!

amiold · 24/12/2023 23:27

All your outfits sound lovely - have a good one ladies 😘

I'm going dress and tights or jumper dress and tights.

I'm wearing a red M&S x Ghost midi dress that's covered in black and gold stars. Got it on Vinted. I'll wear it with slippers!
