But that has changed.

Now anything and everything goes, be it novelty jumpers (music and lights abound), fluffy new pjs or full-on sequins and sparkle.

In the run up to the big day itself, most of us will have adorned festive knitwear, and with Save The Children's annual Christmas Jumper Day on Friday, December 11, what better excuse to embrace the spirit of the season.

With Christmas parties a no go this year, you can flaunt your style on the trip to the supermarket (the aisles are pretty much a catwalk) or give the family and neighbours a twirl at home.

So share your seasonal looks, and let's add some cheer and maybe a touch of glamour to a year that definitely needs it.

Whether it's a flashing Rudolph nose on your jumper or all-out glitz, we want to see the looks that make you smile this festive season.
