Needing to buy some new clothes for the winter due to baby related weight gain but I'm not sure where to start!

What outfits would you choose for -

  1. Christmas day
  2. Work/family Christmas party
  3. Pub lunch
  4. Day out Christmas shopping / markets

We have three generations for Christmas lunch travelling in from Europe, Canada and the US. Christmas Day is relaxed in pj’s

For the work Christmas do I have some gorgeous black trousers from a local designer to wear with a fancy top.

Jeans and hoodie with my favourite boots for everything else.

  1. Christmas day - if at home, just jeans and a jumper, or maybe an elasticated waist 'nice' skirt and jumper / if out, same but nicer

  2. Work/family Christmas party - sequin mini and jumper/tights/boots

  3. Pub lunch - depends on pub and who with - probably a dress and boots

  4. Day out Christmas shopping / markets - jeans, boots, not too big a coat as shops always boiling

  1. Christmas day - something suitable for a long walk but maybe a bit fluffy or sparkly on top
  2. Work/family Christmas party - I don't really go to these
  3. Pub lunch - maybe a knitted dress, thick tights and smart boots
  4. Day out Christmas shopping / markets - I have a red wool coat that would probably be the basis of this if it wasn't raining, but other than that, either similar to 3 or velvet jeans and a cuddly jumper

Love your jumper @ronfa

I've just ordered this sequin duster from Anthropologie that I'm going to try to slot in over Christmas - providing it doesn't make me look too much like a magicians assistant....

I love your dress @JMAngel1. I'm definitely going to get myself something green and velvet for the season.
