I don't do Christmas jumpers, but Fearne Cotton's nostalgic, comfortable style has instant appeal

This 70's-style sweatshirt is quiet festive fashion I can get on board with

I love Christmas. But there's one part that fills me dread - Christmas jumpers. Give me fair isle style any day, but naff Xmas jumpers, no thanks.

And that's simply because as a busy mum of three, I rarely get the opportunity to get dressed up, so when I do I want to make the most of it.

That said, I love a sprinkle of festive in my winter wardrobe – ideally a subtle nod wrapped up in something very comfortable. And when I saw Fearne Cotton dancing around her house in this gorgeous Santa Baby sweatshirt, I experienced a very unfamiliar feeling of wanting a Christmas jumper. The casual feel and comfort of a sweatshirt, elevated by the vibrant red nod back to Eartha Kitt's classic 50's Christmas song 'Santa Baby' ticked all my festive fashion boxes.

woman&home digital fashion editor Rivkie Baum says: With Christmas jumper day fast approaching, it's the sort of style moment that feels so many with dread, but Fearne's take on the trend has delightfully nostalgic undertones that feels chic rather than cheesy. A season that is overwhelming guided by traditions, this cool sweatshirt with retro writing is a great nod to the season, and avoids classic fair isle, but it's still one you can revisit year after year as you put on your favourite festive tunes to get in the mood.'

Fearne's post very much echoed my own sentiments about winter, as she twirled around her house, she covered the video with text that read 'Go wherever the wind takes you'. And then followed up in the caption with 'In this weather... it's to bed thanks'.

Based on what I could see, it's not just her outfit that has appeal, Fearne has clearly been paying attention to cosy home accessories, with the most beautiful tree, candles and a bed that look unbelievably comfortable.

Fearne is known for her individual style, and I can't wait to see what other festive-inspired outfits she has lined up for the next few weeks.
