Christmas Day

Present Time

Gi­ft giving is one of the most joyous times during Christmas but you’ll want to be comfortable. Many a year have family members been cramped around the tree on clean-up duty for unruly wrapping paper and tissue. Opt for a breathable outfit like this Whistles flowy midi dress and trainers.

Food Feast

Prepare for the ultimate feast by wearing a slouchy jumper and chic looking (elasticated) trousers. It’s casual yet stylish and you won’t feel constricted if you’re reaching for seconds - a rite of passage.
