What I Wore Wednesday: Christmas Onesie

So last week was my work Christmas party, this week it is the turn of the Scottish Blogger Christmas party! My fellow lassie Steph and I headed off the the newly relaunched October on the top of Princes Square for some festive fun organized by Paula and Scott.

 The theme of the evening was festive family fun so instead of going for Christmas sweaters Stephie and I decided that we need to go big--and big we went with Christmas onesies.

Sheepskin Boots- Uggs
Jingle Bell Antlers- Poundland

I've never worn a onesie in my life (okay maybe as a baby) and never in public! We got a lot of double takes walking down Buchanan Street but it was so much fun. I will say that onesies are not exactly flattering and because we are both on the shorter side we had the massive pouch of fupa fabric leftover that was umm not very attractive!
The night was so much fun with goodie bags filled to the brim with treats from the likes of Blanx, Lush, Metcalfe Skinny and more!

There were lots of cocktails (ours had glowsticks in them!), a charity raffle, secret santa and just a great time catching up with bloggy friends. It is always great to meet people you chat with on twitter and put a face to the avatar!

I think I'll be retiring my onesie for now though; what do you think about onesies? Fashion favourite or fashion faux-pas?

    I can't remember the last time I owned a onsie...maybe it was 20 years ago, however, the last time I was in Canada I saw them in all of the malls! I really wanted one, but surprisingly there are very few onsies for people under five feet tall! I think it is cute, and there is nothing wrong with cute, but if you're dressing the impress a husband...best to stay away!

    They look so warm & cosy! I love my onsie for lounging in at home, give it a try before retiring it to the back of the cupboard!

    Looks like you had a great time! Thing One and Thing Two! I got a onesie at a clothing exchange and wore it at home once before I came to my senses (no judgment!) LOL!

    Haha! Now normally I'd disown somebody for being out in public in a onesie but this is hilarious! Looks like you had a really fun night :-)

    A onesie on a plane? Was it an overnight flight at least?

    It's definitely a look for home and not out :)

  32. Melaina2521 December 2013 at 10:22

    It's all buttons up the front so it's not exactly easy to get in/out of!

    Just so long as you never look at your rear view in a onesie, you'll be fine.
