I’ve been a total bah-humbug this season; I love Christmas but many factors in my life this year somehow don’t make me feel like being suuuuuper festive.
Yeah, well done universe from stripping the Christmas spirit from one of the biggest Christmas lover.
Having said that, I cannot resist a good Xmas jumper, so here is my selection, just in time for the last leg of office parties and of course, Christmas jumper day, the 16th December.
Primark always delivers on the Christmas jumper (and great price tag) front. Although there are many great ones (even a little santa/elf dress), I have to go for this little black jumper. With a Christmas tree. WHICH LIGHTS UP. £16.
Topshop keeps it stylish with this pretty metallic star jumper which won’t look out of place after Christmas. £55.
I love a naughty jumper and Missguided always have one. This is £18.
The selection at Boohoo is fabulous – from naughty to nice and going through the quirky, I could not just pick one – so here is this adorable reindeer (£15), the loved up emoji (£12) and Festive AF (£15).
A few cute ones over at ASOS, including pretty pastel plus size ones. My pick goes to the mistletoe (£18 on sale).
If you are looking for classy Xmas jumpers, head to next; I picked this Christmas pudding (£26) one, which is just too adorable!
Talking about classy ones, how about this polar bear (£25) number from River Island in non-christmassy black grey and pink? So cute!
F&F for Tesco has jumpers for the whole family, and the prices are good too. My pick? This #Elfie (£14) that comes with a headband, pointy ears and all. Had to be done.
Love? I’ll have my share in wine, thank you very much. Matalan (£15) said it!
This Peacocks number is telling us exactly what we want to hear: calories don’t count at Christmas (£22). It is a long line jumper so can double up as a dress.
And conceal the bulge from the multiples Xmas meals and drinks. Just saying.
I could not resist adding this pretty nerdy fox one from Whispering Smith & Bravesoul at Amazon (£18.50-20).
Also too cute too pass is this loved up reindeer jumper from New Look (14.99). Everyone: aaaaaw <3.
Finally, George at Asda has come up with this sparkly fairy festive jumper (£12). So popular that is only available is larger sizes now, but I would probably buy and wear oversized!
Personally, although the options are very lovely, I think last year’s Christmas jumper game was stronger….
What about you? Found any Xmas jumper you love?
Oh, this year I went a bit crazy on the style front. I bought a few dream bags and shoes and also tried a few different things.
Stepping out of the black Louboutin world, I went for nude and won’t look back! The Christian Louboutin Pigalle 100 in nude patent is a wardrobe staple.
I always wanted some exotic leather shoes and when I saw the Christian Louboutin Pigalle Follies Mika Python, I just knew it had to be them; I’ve always had a think for snake skin… Although rather out there, they are quite neutral in a muted gold. Love.
Flats are a bit of a downer for me, usually more a necessity rather than taste, but these super quirky Office Retreat boy-ish brogues are just too cool for school in silver leather, cow’s hair and pointy toes.
After much deliberation, I decided to invest in a Chanel handbag. I went for the classic shape, in a smaller size, with some seasonal quirks. Could not be happier with my choice!
The first time I saw a Lulu Guinness Lips clutch I knew I had to have it. And I chose the black one, which is the perfect clutch.

Quirky. I learnt to 
The House of CB cut out pencil dress, ideal for clubbing or sophisticated night out. Sexy, but not slutty. At least for me.
For a red carpet vibe, the House of CB plunge evening dress. Plunging neckline, thigh high slit, tons of glamour. O be worn carefully. I was skilfully taped and nipple daisy-ed on this one.
For a family party, this

Of course, my Sunday London Fashion Week outfit. Comfy and quirky, it had it all.
Another tough choice… I love this pinafore dress and bunny shirt, just too cute, and still dressy. Worn with courts in the office.
This Matalan suit is great too. A suit, but not too serious and stiff.
Only recently the air started smelling like Christmas. This is a weird time of the year for me. I love Christmas, but I grew up having tropical Christmas: super hot with thunderstorms. And I miss my family.
