3 ways to fake festive outfit

This week is THE week that your festive sparkle dial is supposed to be turned to ‘MAX’. 3 ways to fake festive outfit.

Get your glitter on and your baubles out people!

Many workplaces are decorated and full of festive cheer.
Many homes are packed to the gunnels with fairy lights and tinsel.
Diaries are full to bursting with social events.
Family and friends to visit.
Events and parties to attend.
It’s a magical time of the year!

BUT…

What if ‘festive’ is the last thing you feel?
What if you’re under the weather?
Or, Christmas is a difficult time for you?

What if you HATE Christmas jumpers, and find them tacky?

What if your festive dial is barely off the ‘Frost Guard’ setting
What if you really can’t be bothered with it AT ALL!?
Hmmmm….

No one really wants to be a Christmas miser, do they?
A misery guts.
A Scrooge.
Sometimes, even though we don’t really want to, there’s nothing else to do but to suck it up and get stuck in.

So here’s how I fake that festive feel without putting in any effort at all!

1. Wear Red.

Nothing says “Christmas!!” quite like red. 🎅

A sparkly anything will look festive.
It’s so easy! ✨✨

After being really poorly last week and still feeling a bit grotty, today’s look ticks all the boxes for me.
Warm.
I’m layered up to the MAX under that sparkly jumper… love my thermals!
Comfortable.
No digging in, pinching or squeezing.
Festive.
Okay, it’s all a big cheat but who cares?
The effect is the same.

I’m using all elements at my disposal.
Wearing red.
Wearing sparkle.
A touch of festive jewellery in the form of little holly earrings and a star pin.

Lacey tights and gorgeous red sparkly boots finish things off nicely.

An easy festive, but still work appropriate, look.
Sip off the cardigan and you are ready for after-work drinks.
Easy peasy.
Just the way I like it!
