Work Christmas jumper day- help me find a non heinous option

It could be a top, or a jumper. Don't want to spend much BUT if it was wearable for multiple years would consider.

Would wear with jeans. Am size 12 standard short arse. Any ideas?

I got this in the red, although red is now sold out! Only 14 and 16 left OP but I found the 12 quite neat and wish I had got a 14 now. It's really very nice and 3/4 sleeves too.

I put two into a charity shop last week - brand new, both lovely (not the right size for me)

So try there

I won this delight last year. It is very warm so I wear it around the house if cold. Not in public though! There are lots of competitions online for them.

the scarf idea is great, I’d get something like that

I bought something like this on ebay last year for similar reasons to the OP - ended up wearing it with black velvet leggings on Christmas day as well.

I thought this sequin jumper was Christmassy but still wearable? Reduced from £65 to £25.

I've got "Now I have a machine gun...Ho Ho Ho" on a grey marl sweatshirt.

If you have a Flying Tiger store near you OP worth going in for a look round. I found a decorate your own Christmas jumper kit there for £5 today. Tinsel, glittery stuff and baubles, very pretty. Would make a good secret Santa present too I thought. Primark have some green or pink and white fairisle style jumpers for £14 which would do the trick too.

I still think the scarves are the best though

I got a Breton top with a Robin on it from joules a few years ago.

This drives me nuts. Give the money you'd be wasting on this nonsense direct to a charity. I love those XJ emails. Buy a jumper you don't want and pay us to wear it at work. No thank you.

I have a very similar jumper to this one, from Oasis years back. Works for a Christmas jumper but not so overtly festive that I can't wear it at other times too.

Don’t like Christmas jumpers myself (other than on kids) but noticed a quite attractive one in Tesco the other day.
plain black, with Fab Yule Ous picked out in reasonably discrete sequinned letters.

Can’t do links. Etsy have badges and pins you can add to any jumper including light up Xmas tree badge for £1. Also have a badge that says ‘this is my Christmas jumper’

Ooh I like that!

Alternatively, Lidl have been doing their own for a few years now, with their logo on it 🤣

Aldi have done the same this year. Copycats.

I have this one.

Me too!
