CHRISTMAS OUTFIT

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

I am in the market for a new outfit for Christmas and Boxing Days. I want something that I can lounge about in, having decided to forsake my usual jeans for the seasonal period. Hopefully, I will be at home with just the OH, on both days.
I fancy something in, possibly velour, a top and trousers, though I do not want a hoodie top, nor hipster bottoms.
I have on my doorstep, Asda,Tesco and Sainsbury's, and feel their prices are as much as I want to give for something that will possibly hang in the wardrobe until next year.
In fact, I am going to a larger branch of Tesco tomorrow to buy another bain in my life - a new mobile phone, so propose to have a look then.
Any suggestions peeps, please

I dislike any kind of shopping, especially for clothes! Except for charity shops where someone else has kindly 'worn in' the clothes for you and you get something a bit more unusual. But, good luck Julia:-) BC XX

Thanks for your replies Gals. Nice to see you posting BC, thought you had finally found those Pipers in Hyde Park and emigrated. LOLOL
OH took me out to do my shopping this afternoon, as he is 'tied up' tomorrow morning when I should have gone out.
I managed to get the mobile phone sorted, it is pink. Only want it for when I am in hospital, and the OH can ring me.
Went next to Asda, and got a loose fitting, long top, in red,black and gold, and a pair of very nice leggings, also red necklace and drop earing to match. That'll do me, nicely.
BC, I also aspire to your theory of the charity shops LOLOL
Thanks again all

Ooh I like shopping, so forunately does my OH. Am I strange though, I don't buy new clothes to wear at christmas.

Ann in Glos, you made me laugh. I like food shopping the best. The only reason I bought something to wear for Christmas was because I did not want to be dressed and trussed up. Just want to be able to go from cooking in the kitchen to flopping on the sofa, and not have to get changed.

Ah, shan't have that problem, will remain flopped on settee as son in law will be cooking and he prefers to do it himself, daughter will probably do the veg etc.
