What I Wore For Christmas! Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day Outfits

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Getting around to sharing what I wore for Christmas, over multiple days of celebration with family, friends and food.

We spend Christmas Eve together for family time and baking and crafting, and then Christmas Day is the main event with the massive lunch and all the presents, and then it's over to the in-laws on Boxing day to celebrate Christmas with them too.

What I wore:

Hat: Santa hat

Earrings: festive cockatoo and presents statement earrings (Christmas present)
Dress: Orange Sherbet Zoe tiered dress in geranium print pink
Shoes: thrifted Seed Heritage tan braided sandals
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Leo envelope clutch in champagne gold

Why I wore it:

This is what I wore for Christmas day. I bought this preloved maxi dress at fashion markets back in 2023, although I hadn't worn it in 2024 at all. I went to wear it one day and then thought "this would be the perfect dress for Christmas" and I haven't worn it since, trying to "save" it for the occasion, which is a little silly. It was so good to give it a wear again and realise I've passed over wearing it for no real reason, as I love it.

After an extremely early 4am wakeup from the over-excited kids, it was present time then church and back home to cook Christmas lunch with the family. I was hosting again this year, and invited my friend along to join us for lunch as well so it was a little busier than most times I've hosted Christmas! It was so fun having more people at our table though.

Last worn: Santa hat, Orange Sherbet maxi dress, braided sandals, Rebecca Minkoff Leo clutch. First time I've worn the festive cockatoo earrings as I got them for Christmas.

Other ways to wear: Santa hat and coral dress, Orange Sherbet maxi dress worn 2 ways, braided sandals and shorts, Rebecca Minkoff Leo clutch and navy dress.

What I wore:

Earrings: Kmart glitter gingerbread man earrings
Tee: festive glitter Santa tee
Skirt: Salvos Nobody Denim grey distressed denim skirt (new purchase)
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual plus Vinnies green glitter resin bangle and Polka Luka resin bangles in red and teal
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff unlined saddle bag in cherry red

Why I wore it:

This is what I wore for Christmas eve. I was particularly excited about wearing this Nobody Denim skirt. It's not the first wear, but first wear on the blog. I bought it at Salvos, new with tags, for a bargain $30, which I'm very pleased with. I wore it with my annual Christmas Eve tee, one my sister bought me back in 2012. It's a little less glitter than when it was new, but it's still going strong 12 years later!

Stuck with the festive theme with my big glittery gingerbread man earrings, red and green resin bracelets, and red Rebecca Minkoff saddle bag.

Last worn: glitter gingerbread earrings, festive Santa tee, Havaianas, red and green resin bracelets, Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag. It's the first time I've worn the green glitter resin bracelet and Nobody Denim skirt as they are recent opshop finds.

Other ways to wear: festive Santa tee and maxi skirt, Rebecca Minkoff studded saddle bag worn 30 ways.

Perfect for pregnancy: festive Santa tee in second trimester.

What I wore:

Earrings: festive cockatoo and presents statement earrings
Dress: Kmart teal tropical notch neck floral maxi dress
Belt: came with dress
Shoes: slim navy and pink Havaianas
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Leo envelope clutch in champagne gold

Why I wore it:

I wore this for celebrating Christmas on boxing day with the in-laws. It's a much more casual Christmas celebration but I still like to wear a pretty dress. And it was another excuse for me to wear these amazing cockatoo sitting on presents earrings that I got in my stocking! I liked the native floral illustration in the earrings complimenting the floral print of the teal maxi dress.

The tie around the waist for the dress seemed like a nice idea at first, but I ended up taking it off so the dress hung loose. Better on the hot day, and for all the delicious food I was anticipating! The kids had a great time and this dress was perfect, especially as I spent some time on the floor with the dogs. When we adopted Bonnie earlier this year we increased the total number of dogs at the in-laws Christmas celebration to 5, so there were a lot of very good dogs to pat and play with.

Last worn: cockatoo earrings (above), teal floral maxi dress, Havaianas (above), Rebecca Minkoff Leo envelope clutch (above).

Other ways to wear: teal floral maxi dress on Christmas day, Rebecca Minkoff Leo envelope clutch and red dress.
