11 Tips For Choosing And Styling The Perfect Christmas Jumper.
I have quite a collection now as I never chuck anything away. Well, only once it has worn out.
Last year I forgot to buy the fun and cheery one I loved until the middle of December. Great my favourite jumper had sold out!!
The only ones I could find were two sizes too small or two sizes too big!! In the end I went for the larger sized one. But then just before Christmas, I did find this gorgeous Next one too.
So today I thought I would modernise and reshare a post I wrote 16 years ago, here. Also add some new and old Christmas jumpers in. Starting with this one I still love.
I will be wearing this loads this year as it was one that sold out and then it came back in store last minute.

11 Tips for Choosing And Styling The Perfect Christmas Jumper.
But how do you choose the perfect Christmas jumper, and how can you make sure you’ll get plenty of wear out of it?
From finding the right size and choosing a design you’ll love to styling your jumper with jeans, skirts and leggings, here are 11 easy Christmas jumper tips to help you get ready for the festive season.
So grab a hot chocolate, get cosy and let’s talk Christmas jumpers!

Firstly, Shop Early For The Best Choice.
Buy nice and early!?!
I’m talking around NOW!! Christmas jumpers have been in the shops weeks now.
Don’t let one you love sell out. Avoid sold-out sizes and popular designs. Go now, before your favourite one or sizes sell out!
Secondly, Make Time To Shop.
Have a spare morning visiting the shops.
If your in a rush you might not see the one you like. Some shops have a few different styles on one rail.
Take a good look at all your favourite shops and see which styles, colour, pattern you like. You do not want to buy one then see one you like more, do you?
So You’ve Not Got Time To Shop?
Thirdly, Not Got Time To Shop?
Open up all new windows of your favourite shops on the internet. Type in the Google search box ‘Christmas jumper’ and the page will show you all the Christmas jumpers you could buy.
Also try Amazon as they have plenty on there too.
Fourthly, Plan Your Outfit.
Think of what clothes you already own.
Jeans, leggings, skirts and trousers? Think of what colour jeans/trouser/leggings/skirts you already own so you can match your jumper up to. Just incase you are looking for a certain colour range.
Fifth, Look On The Social Media For Ideas On How To Style.
Search Christmas jumpers on Facebook and see what jumpers people have been wearing them with and which style bottoms.
Pinterest is great for photos of fashion.
Aww, so many choices!! Watch Instagram and TikTok to see the latest designs that fashion bloggers are reviewing or simply just wearing.
Also, Where Will You Be Wearing it?
Sixth, Where Will You Be Wearing it?
Consider your Christmas plans and where you want to wear it.
Work, parties, family days and Christmas Jumper Day. Think of where you will be wearing it to get an idea of how to dress it up.
Party’s? Home? Work? School Run? Shopping? Days Out? Coffee Shop Dates? Walk In The Park? Walking The Dog? Pub Cinema? Meal Out?
Seventh, Find One You Love Also, Choose The Right Fit.
Which pattern and style will you really like to wear all December? Which style too?
Santa? Cute Animals? Snowflakes? Christmas Trees? Christmas Pudding? Favourite Movie Or T.V Show? Rudolph? Snowman? Tree And Lights? Penguin? Advent? Elf? The Elf? Home Alone? Gingerbread Man? Holly? Wham?
Just to name a few ideas, lol.
Also, Oversized, Fitted Or Relaxed Styles? Tuck it in, layer it or wear it oversized.
Eighth, Wear It Early And Start A Trend.
Make It Last Beyond One Occasion.
Re-wear, restyle and store it properly. Wear it as early as you like. Now is a good enough time also, if its not to Christmas like snow flakes you can wear it after Christmas too.
Also, Mix It Up.
Ninth, Mix It Up.
Enjoy wearing something festive.
Make it look like a different outfit by styling it with different clothes~ jeans, legging, skirts. Get the most wear out of it this year before January when it will be time to pack it away for next year.
Tenth, Stick To You Shopping List And Only Buy What You Had Planned.
Do not get carried away! Stick to your plan and think about soft fabrics, warmth and breathability.
It is so easy to buy lots.. they are so sweet. {If I had money, I would buy them all}.
Eleventh, But Most Importantly, Have Fun!
Have fun and enjoy wearing it, this is what they are all about.
Some Fun Ideas Where To Wear It. Have a ‘Christmas jumper Friday’ at home throughout December, invite friends round, make mince pies and drink Sherry!
Yummy, now this sounds great… Cheers… I love Christmas novelty jumpers. We all love Christmas jumpers here. Do you love Christmas jumpers too?

It's always interesting to see what things are called in other countries. That's a sweater here in the U.S., whereas a jumper is a one-piece outfit (top sewed to bottom). I love it though!
