Just that really, what are you planning to wear Christmas Day/Boxing Day? Or is it too early to decide yet. I've not given it a lot of thought I must say but got one or two ideas.

Jeans and a fairisle jumper

sprigatito · 12/12/2023 18:49

Comfy black trousers, a new sparkly red satin top and some Christmas jewellery I've made for myself. Festive enough to put me in a good mood, but still suitable for cooking/playing games/vegging on the sofa!

Jeans?

stepintochristmas1 · 12/12/2023 18:49

I shan't be wearing anything too heavy as I'm cooking and don't like the hot sweaty look .

Nurse uniform

Jeans?

Nah, you're right. I will buy myself a sequin dress and a pair od high heels Hmm

charliecoopershair · 12/12/2023 19:00

@vestedinterests sorry, that was my cack handed way of saying I think I'll be wearing my jeans but I now see it looks like a comment on your post 🤦🏻‍♀️

Pjs or a gym set

I found a gorgeous jumpsuit in a charity shop but it was too big. Found it on Vinted in my size!!! Wide legged, black with pockets, a satin belt and then gold lace on black top half it's lovely!!

FusionChefGeoff · 12/12/2023 19:02

I love dressing up for Xmas but it must have pockets and I avoid the fast fashion guilt with charity / eBay / vinted buys

vestedinterests · 12/12/2023 19:04

@charliecoopershair No worries, I have covid and feel very irritable 🫣

Celebrationsnakes · 12/12/2023 19:04

Pyjamas

I bought a velvet dress that I didn't need with the excuse that I'll wear it on Christmas Day. We never get dressed up though, so it will probably be worn with slippers and an old cardigan.

JMAngel1 · 13/12/2023 09:33

Well I had been hoping to find a sequin wrap skirt in either green or dark gold to wear with a cashmere jumper but no luck.
So I have a midi wrap asymmetric velvet dress in emerald green which I am looking to find a very fine knit black jumper to go under it to add warmth. I also have a velvet black jacket.

I’m hoping though that with grandparents coming, DH will let us put the heating on for most of the day 😂. We do like a game of switch on (me) switch off (him) in our house!

Me too but we will be in a hotel so I likely will wear it but will also be wearing jeans and big coat as we are going walking too that day allegedly.

clowniform · 13/12/2023 15:04

Trying to make a virtue of the fact that I'll be cooking, planning on wearing a red 1940s Christmas jumper with cropped tapered trousers (Toast Gabi -- elasticated waist is key) and jaunty headscarf.

JamMakingWannaBe · 13/12/2023 15:42

I've just ordered this. It's not very sparkly but the sequin jumpsuits I was lusting after do not fit AT ALL and I'm a bit self conscious about my stomach so hopefully it hides that. I'm sure I can jusz it up with some jewellery/belt etc.
It's polyester but most things, at that price point at least, are.

I will my new mint velvet sequin knitted midi dress, that I just got from next clearance, I had earlier in the year brought it but returned it as its £70 and at the time thought its expensive, but today in m&s and h&m must of tried on 8 knitted dresses, yes they were half the price but most were acyclic , the MV is a wool mix, and I love it.

lindyloo57 · 13/12/2023 17:27

I will be wearing

CallmeSand · 13/12/2023 17:31

@JamMakingWannaBe that is a lovely dress!

trulyunruly01 · 13/12/2023 17:32

My usual IncrediStretch ever expanding black velour trousers that only see the light of day on Xmas day.
They e done me for the last 15 years, they'll go round again.

YYURYYUCICYYUR4ME · 13/12/2023 17:33

Very dark green / almost black cotton velvet leisure trousers, soft drape silver metallic shirt, silver ballet pumps.
