I am totally feeling the Christmas spirit. Quite clearly. Haha. My family this year are going back and forth between a regular "dress up" day (wearing mostly dresses and black tie type clothes) or a more fun "vintage" dress up. (Do you do themes for Christmas at all? We are probably just weird. One year we had ugly sweaters, another year we did pajamas).
I found these two vintage-ish dresses from circa 1970s at the thrift store. Both are kind of gaidy but I cant decide which is a better choice. The first is kind of funny. The second is more like a flapper type dress. And of course I have normal modern day ones, but wheres the fun in that?!
Which do you prefer or think is a better choice? And does your family have any kind of fun themes for the holiday or what is the typical dress code like?

I love dressing up for Christmas! Even if it is just 3 of us celebrating, I like being all pretty haha Will a cover be worn for the second dress? Even if not, I like that one, unless you plan on going to Christmas Mass haha then the first one is perfect.

We just have a theme of come as you are, of course, cover up please! We have one family member that thinks she can dress like she is working at a stripper bar. I have even said I would bring a sweater for her to cover up with if she dresses inappropriately. LOL.

@maezee she tried! I am too quick for her though. I prepare for her with every event we have.

Personally. I like the sparkly one. It seems festive and fun.
We dress up, but we've never had a theme.

oh no I would hate if we had to get all dressed up for the day. I just wear jeans or khakis and a sweater to Christmas dinner. I wouldn't roll up in sweatpants and a t-shirt but I also am not going to wear a dress. That would make me uncomfortable and ruin the whole experience for me.
That being said, I love the black dress. That one is gorgeous.

No we never do themes but I love the idea. As its a 'dress up' do I'd go for the black flapper one with ltos of beads and a band around your head and maybe even a big feather and feather boa too - very chic.

We don't normally had any dress codes for Christmas but I think this is an awesome idea. I will try to suggest this to my family members =) Thanks
