The Ugly Jumper Season

It’s December, and Christmas is slowly making its way into our homes. I do love a good Christmas film snuggled up on a dull day. 
I am also a sucker for a good Christmas jumper. So far I have a collection of three. All purchased online at Boohoo (who are probably my favourite online shopping sites ever, I wish they would open up a store). 

  

Our family’s christmas jumpers for 2016

  

Mum’s jumpers

1. I bought this one last year and it was £20. I love this one so much because I love Elf the film. It’s probably my favourite line out of the film. The jumper itself is a really nice fit. It’s nice and thick and fits nicely around the arms and neck so it’s not too loose or tight. It’s super comfy. I really want a Grinch jumper because that’s my most favourite film so if you know of any being sold – do comment!

2. This is a new purchase. Obviously by the quote on the jumper I am blonde so this appealed to me. They also do brunette too. I am a big fan of quote jumpers but I still wanted it to be Christmas related. I wanted a black one as I’ve already got a red Christmas jumper. Again it’s a lovely fit. I have this in a small and it’s a little shorter than the small size of jumper number 1 but still such a good fit and look! It’s nice and casual. This was £15. 

3. Again, from boohoo. I wanted a jumper I could wear on Christmas Day. Something casual, light in colour but still Christmassy. I saw this and loved it. I love the detailing if the reindeer and how they stand out against the blue. My little girl and boyfriend have piercing blue eyes (I have green) so I wanted soothing that would make there eyes pop when having pictures together. This is such a simple yet elegant jumper I Luke really reccommend. They do this in two other colours too. Again this was £15. 

Dad’s jumpers 

4. Dad is a mega Christmas fan. He knows every word to Home Alone 1&2, along with every single fact. So I would expect nothing less but for him to have a Home Alone quote jumper. We bought our film quote jumpers together last Christmas time. This was £20, but because of how popular this is now you will most probably be able to find this much cheaper now. The jumper itself is a good lovely thick material, but he doesn’t overheat and can wear this comfortably all day. My partner is 6ft3 so this was a worry when ordering from an online site, but it fits lovely! 

Little B’s jumpers

With it being B’s first Christmas I just had to get her a few Christmas jumpers to celebrate the season. I wanted to get her a casual, winter style one that wasn’t too in your face and another that had Christmas written all over it. These are the two (no doubt I will impulse buy more) that I have purchased.

5. This is a lovely, thick and pretty jumper bought from the F&F range at Tesco. Her Dad bought it her but I think it was around the £10 mark. I really love the detailing in this. It has lovely 3D pom pom’s to add to the snowy theme and a lovely polar bear with some glittery detail. I always get asked where I bought this, it’s such a lovely purchase. It’s not that itchy material either so I know B will be comfortable playing and exploring wearing this. 

6. I bought this as her proper Christmassy, in your face its Christmas jumper. It was from Primark and at a cheap and cheerful price. Apparently £1.50 of this jumper will go to the  Text Santa Charity. I love the little reindeer, and I think the beige colour keeps it that little bit casual too. It’s not too thick so it’s really comfortable and good fitting for B. 
I couldn’t write this post without sharing with you my favourite baby buy of the month. Back in October I preordered a Christmas dress for my little darling to wear on Christmas Day. You can buy matching dresses too, so you and your little one match but I really wanted all the attention to be on my Little B alone…and I think it’s a little out there or my own style. But it’s so adorable and cute. Here it is…. My Little B’s Christmas outfit for Christmas Day.
