CF Singles Christmas Thread 2022

You can do it!!!

I wanted to order a smoking jacket to look all fancy christmassy, but couldn't find one from seller with reviews that could ship it before Christmas is over. Thinking I'll have to wait until next Christmas. But I got a red vest and a royal blue one, so mixing and matching them with different color ties, dress shirts, and shoes has been fun.

You ought to go ahead and order one you like. If it makes it in time, awesome! If not, you have it for next year.

You talked me into it
If I can find one with good reviews, I'll take the risk xD

A mess of progress

Last night I baked and iced some gingerbread cookies I can't believe that Christmas will be here in 2 weeks.

Was able to wear the new dress and coat to my Church’s Singles Christmas party. Really happy with how they turned out and had a lot of fun at the party.

Is that you, Ariel?

I am ahead of my Christmas shopping/wrapping! There's been times where I don't wrap most of the items till the day or 2 before Christmas but I have 5 things wrapped already, so I'm already 1/2 done, & it's still 2 weeks before Christmas!

@TheRealAriel how was the singles Christmas party!? Do tell. What kinds of things do they do at the party?

Wow, ooooh, very nicely done! Absolutely spectacular. But now I'm mad, because I have to step up my game to be best christmas dresser on the board now. So thanks a lot.

It was really nice!! They had the foyer area of the church decorated really pretty- strings of lights across the ceiling, tables with gold decorations and a bazillion Christmas trees. They served appetizers and dessert and hosted a couple little games. It was great hanging out and getting dressed up, and I really appreciate the emphasis my church has on making singles feel welcome and included.

Been thinking of you and the Christmas season as I know it can be busy where you work. It would be great if you're able to post pictures of your outfit, but if you can't we will understand.

I did manage to sneak a picture and posted it in one of the picture threads. Should still be on my phone.

Spoiler: My ugly mug

That's one of the color schemes I've run with so far. I also have that same vest but in royal blue.

@TheRealAriel
I ordered a few things for my office Christmas party-- gonna give you a run for your money on Christmas fashion

 

[mojoboy31]

Can’t wait!! Though I must warn you, I plan to go full Elf for the party on Friday.

That's so unfair! Elf is like unbeatable. You're gonna make me dig real deep to find a new level of extra.

 

[TheRealAriel]

Been making ornaments like a crazed elf. 16 “Speedys” (my sons favorite sloth toy) and 2 Christmas tree cakes so far… my hands are getting very tired.. but I’m happy with them!

 

[LoveDivine]

I spent most of today baking some savory breads. It was a lot of fun kneading the dough.

 

[mojoboy31]

Wednesday is the last Christmas Cheer day before Christmas, so we're having our office Christmas party then, which is when I will break out the most extra of all extra Christmas outfits. I have everything I need now, my last piece arrived today, now I just have to put it all together. I'm excited.

Had our office Christmas day. Went full on overboard. Watch out, @TheRealAriel ,I might have topped you!

Felt like I was having a good hair day, so kept my hat off for a while.

Here's me with the hat:

And because my mirrors are short and you can't see my pants or shoes:

Royal blue dress pants, and navy suede loafers...

Thank you, thank you. I like how it came together. And it really wasn't all that expensive either. I think I spent more on just one shirt for my mom's gift than I did this whole outfit.
I did get lucky with super good sales, discounts, and clearances though.

Did you ever post a pic of your Elf outfit?
