Get into the festive spirit with these pieces

Get into the festive spirit with these pieces

It's time to get into the festive season gentleman, and the best way this can be done is by wearing it so boldly on your body. 

There's nothing like a bit of fairisle to get you into the spirit and the jumper is the best way to go about it. 

Plus it will keep you warm in this cold weather. Stylish and warm, you're on to a winner. 

French Connection Men's Abbott Fairisle Cardigan - Cream - M M Cream

French Connection Men's Abbott Fairisle Cardigan - Cream - M M Cream

This French Connection jumper would leave Father Christmas jealous.

It's the perfect choice for December 25.

And, it's on sale for £36.99 from £70 so it's a bargain too. 

Wear this with dark jeans and some navy dessert boots and let's not forget the scarf and gloves that you'll need with all of the snow and frost that we can expect to see in the next couple of weeks.

Red is a particularly festive colour, so if you want to take the trend to the highest level then this is the way to go.

You may think a vest is something that Grandfather's should stick to wearing, but if you pair it with the right things, there's no reason why you can't wear one.

Don't wear a tie, keep the shirt plain and try denim and wear chinos instead of jeans. 

The best shoes to wear with this certainly has to be pumps, something that the old man would never wear. 

                       

Men's Selected Fairisle knitted button through cardigan, Light Grey

If a jumper isn't your style, then a cardigan can look just as good. 

Grey is the perfect option too, because it goes with almost anything. 

It's the small details that make the final product and the textured buttons make this piece look that little more expensive. 

Which is great, when you consider that it's on sale to reduced to £39 from £65 at House of Fraser.

Think about what you're going to be wearing underneath this piece because you may need to opt for a bigger sixe than you normally get, especially if you want to wear it buttoned up. 

Men's Lacoste Shawl neck fairisle knitted jumper, Black

Men's Lacoste Shawl neck fairisle knitted jumper, Black

This shawl neck jumper is super luxe - a real treat if you're going to embrace the trend. 

The quality of the fabric means it can be worn year after year.

Just make sure you pay close attention to the washing instructions - sleeves creeping up the arms is not a good look. 

Super dark jeans will look best with this jumper and a pair of shoes will really dress it up, or if you fancy something a little more casual opt for suede Chelsea Boots. 

Available from House of Fraser £200. 

French Connection Men's Fimble Famble Fairisle Jumper - Darkest Blue - M M Blue

This is another luxe piece that will look great on a night out. 

Wear with a funky printed tee, Vivienne Westwood has some of the best designer end. Head to Topman for the High Street. 

Both chinos and jeans will look good and wear the shoes to amtch accordingly and don't forget to think about where you're headed to. Remember most places have a dress code. 

French Connection jumper, £46.99 reduced from £85. 

Men's Criminal Fairisle print sock, Red

And if you want to wear the trend all over - these socks are just the way to do. 

Whether you buy them for yourself or to leave for Santa on Christmas Eve you're going to be put in the festive mood. 

They're great too if you think that the fairisle trend really isn't for you. 

Available from House of Fraser £5.
