What do you wear on Christmas Day?

[monkeysmama]

For the first time in my life I am looking forward to Christmas with unbridled excitement. Was doing some online browsing earlier & am wondering what to wear on Christmas Day. We'll be at home, make take a stroll, have guests for brunch & lunch at home with dd & dp (I'll be cooking)

I am going to order us all some new pjs for Christmas Eve but want to feel sparkly on Christmas Day.

I liked this on Claudia W on tv last night but am not sure about material.

What will you wear?

I have a longish black skirt and a red cardigan with narrow sparkly stripes that I wheel out for Christmas day. I usually change out of the skirt when we come back form church, though.

Oh, and I wear and apron!

I have a black Cardigan with embellishments on the sleeves that my mum bought 30 years ago & I wear every Christmas Eve. It'll be fashionable this year!

I wear a dress, or a skirt and a nice top.

ppms; at wearign that at xmas day
have oyu ever DONE an xmas day ever?

hot and sweaty cooking turkey
on your knnees doign batteries

its not a JL advert oyu know!!

i wear a tool belt over mine with screwdrivers ,scissors and a lighter

Tinsel and a bib.

I'm wearing a red shift dress from Monsoon (that I can eat in and has a cheeky pleat at the fron to hide turkey and pudding with) with a shrug to cover the bingo wings.

No idea. Xmas day at BIL2's this year so no cooking, just 'guesting' (ie making a nuisance of myself and getting pissed - they are coming to us on Boxing Day so will return the favour). I prob wear a casual-ish dress with coloured opaques and flat slouchy boots.

I usually wear crotchless knickers and a peephole bra.

The youngest of my 4 children was born thirty years ago and what I want to know is whether any young mum wears a dressing gown these days? My youngest d in l is expecting her first baby in March and lives in a cold flat. I can remember the lovely, warm dressing gown I wore when my fourth son was born and how comforting it was when I got up to feed in the night. I want to buy her something nice for Christmas and have looked at pretty flannel gowns from Toast and something called a cardigown from Hush (wool -so a pain to wash and dry) Can any of you help me? Maybe I'm too old to be on here, anyway....

ooh no its nice yo have you on.
NOw what kind of style has she? describe her typical clothes and we will find htings for her - how nice to get her one.
MAYBe if she is all Yoofful she will prefer what they call " loungewear"?
what is your budget

i got the boden dressing gown ehre in the sale last year - really like it as its not too thick (iykwim)

An enormous gold ribbon wrapped around my naked torso, with the bow tied jauntily between m,y two enormous tits.

boden one or maybe she wants a mor de luxe one - saw this in rl in marks and is very nice but god, it looks totally Gin and Jag here

i htink my extended family would be a bit supsicious if i dressed up on xmas day tbh

I have a gorgeous dressing gown brought by my DP last christmas from Next its warm and cosy and totally love it.

Xmas day:
Will be jeans, Tshirt, and cardi prob.

wonderbra - I am under 30 and own a dressing gown, if that helps?!

It is too hot though, some sort of acrylic asbestos fleecy stuff.

last 2 Christmases I have accessorised my outfit w a potato peeler in one hand and a baby muslin on my shoulder.

This year I will appear as if by magic looking fabulous, just before lunch, in a semi-designer cashmere-blend dress and more jewelry than just my wedding rings, ready to do battle in persuading my 2 little DDs that sprouts really are quite yummy when mixed with redcurrant jelly.

PS. I do like the "Claudia" dress (as it should now be known.

)

Gap and M&S Autograph do v nice dressing gowns that are more like lovely big snuggly cardigans and would be great for a new mum in a cold flat.

Sorry OP but that dress in the first link is revolting.

I wear jeans and a nice jumper on Christmas day, complete with button open in the afternoon!

I don't see the point in getting all dressed up to sit around the house all day gorging on food.
