What do you wear for christmas?

I just saw the H&M video podcast where the Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana tells in an interview she has to wear always white on christmas because it means peace and happiness.
How about you girls? Do you have any prefered styles and colours on christmas?

For me there is always one rule: The christmas-outfit has to match the christmas-tree. As I choose every year a new theme and collect from September on pieces that match my actual theme I also look for the right keypieces for my outfit.

OK. Maybe I shoud overthink my tradition, cause it sounds nice to wear white for christmas.

I have no set outfit for Christmas. Christmas Day for me often involves a trip out to the movie theater, which means bundling up, since it's always COLD. But our Christmas dinner is a casual affair and presents are usually opened in pajamas. So, I guess the clothing and shoe theme of Christmas Day for me is warm and comfy.

That sounds like a fairytale movie for me. I know that kind only from books and movies. Must be fun.
As I am from europe we celebrate Christmas on the evening of the 24th. All doors around the tree are closed and after the bell rings one door is opened with drama and we all sing under the christmas tree in candle light, read a part of a story from the Bible, wish a wonderful christmas to all of us, then the family pictures are made and then open our presents.

Yes of course, we preferred styles and colours that could match during holiday season. usually we wear something like a sweaters, hoodies , sweatshirt, jackets, womens polos and outfit that fits the cold season

I like to wear something 'festive' - red or green with a velvet or plush fabric. even if it's just a vest. This year I used the Charles David Baci red-bow pumps going on sale at Amazon as an excuse/justification to also buy the fabric I'd been mooning over buying. So, of course I picked up the shoes to go with the floor length halter gown I then made with the fabric (a gorgeous red/black rose lace with matching printed velvet on the skirt). It'll probably be another year before I embark on another sewing project, who knows. Maybe I'll get a chance to take a picture of the shoes & dress together in a few weeks - I'm stuck in a hotel with my 3 kids until I close on our new home.

On a Christmas post-script, it started snowing just before we left to meet the family for dinner & presents, so I wound up wearing my trusty black Naturalizer boots instead of the red slingbacks.

Sigh.
