I'll join you. Once half term is over I'm officially getting ready for Christmas.

Ha! I alway fancy a bit of glitter, but am unsure. Am apple shape, don't want to look like a bauble.

My tip is wear sequins in your smallest bit. Not a fat arse for eg. Or big tits

If you can only wear sparkles on your smallest bit I need to look for a nice sparkly hair clip!

I'm loving sparkly knitwear this year! I did buy a black cardigan that caught my eye but returned it because it was really cheaply made.

I saw a woman with an oatmeal coloured cardigan which had sequins all over, but not in yer face if you know what I mean? I wish I'd asked her where she bought it :(

Pugless · 28/10/2012 09:12

Yay i love abit alot of sparkle!!

Charliefox · 28/10/2012 09:49

Well I'm just gonna throw this in the mix. I bought these yesterday. Gorgeous. Comfy pants, with a sparkle bow and cuffs. Perfect blend of comfort and bit of razzmatazz. £9. I bought age 13-14. I'm 5'8 and size 12! They fit perfectly Christams day trousers sorted

Are you a leetle bit taking the pee out of my beautiful trews Maureen?

QueenieLovesEels · 28/10/2012 13:04

I am a glitter tart. I may tip over into OTT territory any second....

considers whether glitter nails, tunic and sparkle pumps need the addition of a pewter bag

decides that maybe a glitter bangle is needed instead

MaureenCognito · 28/10/2012 13:07

Lol. I like the idea. Just know bad on me #shipinfullsail

What about reindeer jumper? So they count as festive or does it have to be sequins? And what about the mumsnetters with the wolves fleeces?
