Just the best expensive Christmas jumpers ever!!

[Thudercatsrule]

I've stalking the Chintia and Parker website for their new Christmas jumpers and they have arrived! I'd love nearly everyone of them, but will be ordering at least 3!!

Probably based on the OP's OTT reaction to a twee jumper?

They're awful. They look like pyjamas and if I saw someone wearing one, I'd think it had come from a supermarket like Asda George tbh. But it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks - if you like them and can afford them, have them!

When you're spending £250 on one very plain boring and badly fitted jumper, the words should be clearly identifiable at the very least, considering that's its only adornment.

I mean, this is really poor.

You're the entertainment, my dear. You're blind if you can't see it.

They’re sort of tacky, even if they are cashmere.

You can get exactly the same style at a supermarket for <£20.

They're lovely 🥰

And here we are, Ladies and Gentlemen, a demonstration of how money does not buy taste
Very QVC, dahhhling

If the OP isn't employed at Chinti and Parker, but just has a weird obsession with them, then I feel quite sorry for the company. If she's employed to do this, then that is just embarrassing for them.

Luncheon? Bol? Tripled your salary?

Are you not just a bit embarrassed by all this OP? I guess some people just have no shame.

A Charlie Brown Christmas is a big thing in the States, obviously trying to appeal to that market

QVC

Indeed. I'd have the Snoopy elf one happily if it was decent quality at £50, which is all I require of a Christmas jumper LOL.

How does this work? Is it going to be a PowerPoint presentation of the mumsnet thread and comments? Will she print them out and distribute to her friends? Or will they be huddled round a phone?

Either way, it sounds wildly exciting!! I’ve seen similar with teenagers doing this on the back of the bus.

Luncheon? WTF is that? The C&P interns attempt to sound like a posh middle aged woman 😂😂OMG it just gets better and better

I love these jumpers from the brand Kiwi & Co, praying they do a red and white one for Christmas

'Luncheon' made me laugh too. A touch of the Hyacinths, I think

How's the hangover, @Thudercatsrule ?

Luncheon? Iv not heard that word since 1982

OP- we get it that you buy them just because you can, and I could understand it if there were exceptional, but they aren’t- they’re very ordinary, while the chain store ones are good value for money, and most important of all- fun!

From the lenghth and content of OP's posting history she is a middle aged woman, approaching 50.

I'm older than that and the only time I say luncheon is in the context of highly processed sandwich meat made from lips and bumholes. I'm not even sure you can buy that any more, unless it's still possible to buy Billy Bear slices.

OP's posting history is quite interesting, mind.

Quite. The intern is clearly lifting her vocabulary direct from Ab Fab.

Something tells me she will not be invited back onto the graduate program at C&P?

What do you mean, poor? I mean it clearly says
"Neee" 🤷‍♀️🤣

Google suggests the vile stuff still exists.
The only other use of the word was 'luncheon vouchers' which I thought were a thing of the past but apparently still exist.

Maybe the op is a fan of subsidised spam?

I am a 50yo woman and NO ONE says luncheon, ever. My grandma is over a hundred and would find it absurd.
