What you wear on Christmas Day?

[SpringCrimboTurkey]

Do you wear anything special/make a special effort?

Hello there - my! conversation moved on a bit since that first post I read. LOL!!!

Sleigh-me-dear, you looked fabulous at the MN do - why don't you wear that again?

Thanks GB, the old wrap dress is a marvellous friend to me

will be wearing nothing but an apron!

I have no idea what I will wear on Christmas Day.
I may put on a slightly better top than normal, but I don't tend to really dress up.

just checked out spanx pants (never heard of them before) do they work? Am in the market for a bit of hold-me-in magic

We go to MIL christmas day and my parents boxing day so that they all get to see the children and spoil them rotten so yes we dress up and make more of an effort than we would if we stayed at home.

We all dress up a bit. I am planning on wearing new Boden togs (velvet trimmed cardie, a bit glammy.
And yes, I do wear an apron (always when baking).

oooh defoo a sparkly top for me

and an apron when cooking, cleaning, or hand washing

am I the only person here who makes a mess doing all of the above?

i try and stay in my pyjamas all day

we get all dressed too for xmas dinner. in the evening we kinda lounge about eating loads and watching kids new dvd's

Mil and sil are both previous beauty queens. I'm not. Find it all very stressful. Plus sil likes Celine Dion and I'm a bit more rock chick. My excuse for looking scruffy and hungover anyway.

i wear aqn arpon evert time i cook!!
too many grease splatters on clothes otherewise

I always buy a new top for me and a new top or outfit for the kids. Dp goes mad but it is a tradition.

I am wearing black trousers, a pink camisole type top and a pink shrug.

Ds has new shirt, dd1 has a new dress and shrug and dd2 has new top and trousers.

Dp said he wasn't bothered so has nowt.

I bought some hipster pj pants.

Yes but I wish I didn't have to. Not when I'm frantically trying to cook & organise the dc & dh, etc. We're expected at my mother's tonight & she asked me to wear something "other than jeans, dear". Groan.

oh, what will I wear tomorrow? standard LBD.

We dress up. Santa delivers a christmas day outfit for the children and I wear what I would wear to go out for a meal.

I have a short stripy tunic dress from top shop (worn as a top as I am 23 weeks pg) with a pair of black trousers. Long pearl necklace knotted at the bottom in a true 80's style. Flat black shoes that will be off for most of the time (apart from when in church). Long camel coat and lavender pashmina for church

Grown up make up and 'done' hair

I'm wearing a funky blue grey "ragged" hem skirt from Next that has a bit of silver embroidery, plus a grey cashmere jumper and some impossibly high black knee length black suede boots - I will totter down to church in them but wear my slipper socks at home methinks.
