Do you wear holiday garb to work?

If you dont' wear a uniform I mean.

I am off next week (THANK YOU LORD) so this week I'm wearing holiday type stuff - red and green and black. Holiday earrings, a pin etc. I don't really own any Christmas sweaters or anything. Maybe next year. We have a holiday party Thursday so will wear my one real holiday shirt (I think Juliebelle actually helped me buy it like 3 years ago lol)

Anyway, 45 minutes til I go home and was wondering so here I am asking lol

I go to work a few times a month. I never wear holiday or theme stuff. Just not my style. I don't even wear it at home on holidays!

Sort of! I'm not a holiday cardigan kind of person (yet) but I have a thing about cutesy earrings and socks and have some for most holidays, lol.
So I'll be dressed completely normal but be wearing rudolph socks and snowman earrings, or black and orange striped tights and pumpkin earrings.

Nope. I don't like the holiday themed clothing for myself but I do see a lot of co-workers wearing it! (I'm a elementary teacher)
