Low Carb Archive - Do You Dress Christmassy?

I don't mean party frocks or Christmas day fancies but just the little touches every morning.

I have a couple of Christmas T-shirts, a red silky blouse, several pair of Christmas earrings, a jingle bell pendant - DH knows the season is upon us when he sees me start decking myself with the stuff.

Do you have an everyday speciality?

gee! funny you should ask, Ruth!

I have on a black turtle neck with little pine needles and poinsettas, a few, tiny stars!

I have two snowmen sweaters and another snownan turtle neck!

ho ho ho

off to take the big kid back to school!

The truth is, when I was thinner I did dress up, some times nice, some times in a sweatshirt w/something Christmasy on it.

With all this added baggage I haven't even given it a thought. But the true meaning is inside and no matter how much blubber covers my body, it can't cover or alter that :D

Okay maybe a pair of silly earings :dizzy:

BUT I still dress my dog up :p

I am the queen of Christmas dressing here. I have a different top for every day of December and more. Another one of my additions, collecting holiday sweaters after Christmas when they are dirt cheep. I also have quite a collection of earings and bracelets. I just came back from working at school where I was wearing a santa hat along with a Christmas sweater and holiday santa earrings that are bells, I love shaking my head and having the ringing sound!

For my Christmas dinner Tuesday night I have adapted a red satin pajama top with a white feather boa and bangles to make my comfy holiday attire. I will also wear a pair of velvet pants.

Did I mention that I have a dozen or more pairs of holiday socks?

Love the holidays!

Wow Jenny! You must have a huge closet to hold all those clothes.

Right now all I have is one Christmas vest with teddy bears all over it.

I have just a wee touch since I am not much inot holiday dressing. I have a littel bell on my coat that I wear all the time and that just makes me smile when I hear it tinkle.

LOVE THOSE HOLIDAY SOCKS!!!!!! :D

I would love to have all the bells and whistles. I have four pins, three pr. earrings. I have one "Santa I want everything" sweater that I picked up at frenchies. I cut a Christmas vest pattern out this year, but my dang sewing mac. won't work, this makes me so, so, "Happy Christmas". But I think it all looks so wonderful! I have every intention to pick up more christmas dress after Christmas this year. love

Gosh, now you've got me all inspired to rush out and buy myself a couple of festive everyday tops. It's just that I get so darned warm in sweatshirts and I haven't seen any Christmassy short sleeved t-shirts which is what I usually wear around the house.
Being the resident Grinch I rarely wear anything especially seasonal but I promise, I will make the effort. I'm off to the large ladies discount shop to see what they have.

You rarely wear anything? Isn't that cold up there in Canada?

Ive got dozens of holiday socks!!! I love when the kids and adults alike spot them in the stores lol

LOL Dyan, you have to read the entire sentence. I said I rarely wear anything especially seasonal....possibly not the best grammar but I think it says what I meant to say. I rarely wear clothing designed especially for the holiday season. Clear as mud? By the way, you seem to have the usual misconception that all of Canada lies under 10 feet of snow and ice at this time of year. Sorry to disappoint you but here on the Wet Coast we lie under a blanket of cloud and rain most of the winter with temps well above freezing.

I just bought me a pair of socks with bells on them they look like elve socks!! I had a bunch of turtle necks but the got stained in the wrong places and i grew too small for them I need more !!!

I have some socks with reindeer on them, and some panties with candy canes. Now I bet that was more than you wanted to know!
hehehe...

Linda, I'm from FL, anything above the Georgia state line is cold to me. LOL

Being a former travel agent, I do know a little (not as much as I'd like) about Canada. Someday I'm going to visit the North West Coast. I hear it's beautiful. - Arrgh I'm racking my brain trying to think of the name of the lodge I saw on the travel channel. Darn it. Shoot! Well I'm off to do vacation wishing now..

Good Morning Chicks, I am wearing my vest, I got the old sewing mac. working last night. At 10:45 It was done. Looks pritty good if I must say so myself. I also have on my tree earrings, and Christmas snowflake socks. Ready for work. It is now 5:45am.
And Lindabc, and Dyan, it is me that has all of the cold and snow.

I have santa hats and jingle earrings and a few pins...I had a nice vest but I haven't seen it lately..don't know where it is?
Will have to go looking for it!

Thanks for reminding me!
