Today's Advent pictures are building up to an over the top Christmas jumper day outfit. For someone who is rather a terrible clothesaholic and hoarder, surprisingly, I am rather picky and frugal about Christmas jumpers- I just have the one and anytime I've considered another one, I've ended up saying no!
Our school teachers did Christmas jumper day on Friday which I decided would need to be a bit more than a Christmas jumper and trousers.
Let's start from from the smallest detail. I started from this Punkypins snowflake necklace- it is beautiful with its iridescence.
And here's the star of my Christmas jumper, my sequinned Gingerbread man. Confession time here- I discovered I hadn't washed it since last year- oops!!! It was just in my jumper box!
A DIY headband was necessary- the pom pom maker went into action and I made a white glittery snowball to add to a navy headband!
The whole effect is totally daft and slightly OTT, but never mind, that's how I roll!
It is SO nice to be on holiday! Today, having gone to bed really late, we got up very late, went and did some shopping and I've come home and done some sorting out- I emptied the airing cupboard and ironed pillowcases and sheets and rearranged it neatly which is great as it was a tip in there! Lots of washing and the suchlike! Now just need to finish the hoovering in the morning before lunch at my Mum's!
Hope all is well with you!

Well you've had a nice busy day! That Christmas sweater is classic.
ReplyDeleteYou are as cute as a bug in a rug, dear. Gingy is looking swell there for sure :) I did see Star Wars and was very impressed. It reminded me of the new Star Trek movies, some borrowed bits, but overall very impressive. And Luke looked cool with that Obi Wan facial hair. Thanks for the nice birthday wishes.
ReplyDeleteWell that jumper is one I would quite happily take off your hands, I love gingerbread men! x
ReplyDeleteLove the jumper

Enjoy the break, you have worked hard all term!
ReplyDeleteLoving that necklace, it's a stunner!
ReplyDeleteYay to teacher's holidays, I've got a boozy mid-week date with a couple of my friends tomorrow - unheard of during term time. xxx
The necklace looks wonderful, I love the idea and it's so pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt's such a nice idea, dear Kezzie, to have a jumper day at school :) I loved the gingerbread man, so sweet in sequins! You look lovely, beautiful and so festive :) Loved the jumper, honestly! And yes, sooo good to have holidays and to have lunch with your mum! I hope you have a very beautiful Christmas and new year, dear Kezzie! Next Monday I will leave a new year's message (this Monday is Christmas message), cause I will go on holidays for some weeks :) So nice if we can meet in February (I will give you details) :) XXX

I LOVE the pom pom. I'm trying to catch up on everything that's been going on with you after vanishing from the blogging world for a few weeks. Your jumper makes my regular little woollen penguin look very sad.

Daft outfits, sleeping late, snowflakes and sequins - sounds like a perfect Christmas holiday! Judging by your smile, you agree!
ReplyDeleteThis Christmas jumper is absolutely perfect...pairing it with that colourful skirt was a great choice. Plus I love that statement necklace. You look lovely sweetie!
ReplyDeleteYour Christmas outfit is great I love your necklace too. I hope you have a lovely break and a very Happy Christmas. Sarah x

A fun outfit for the school Christmas Jumper Day. I'm impressed with the making of the snowball headband especially for the occasion. Enjoy your Christmas holiday.
ReplyDeleteAww you look so lovely! Enjoy your break and Merry Christmas to you! I finished work for 6 days today, woohoo!
ReplyDeleteYou can't beat sequins on a Christmas jumper! Love it.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty necklace too, Kezzie.

Another fantastic outfit! And I can only imagine the sense of achievement gazing upon your newly organised airing cupboard. Those kind of before & after domestic achievements make me very happy xxx
