'Tis the season to invest in the best Christmas jumpers from the high street so that you can look the part whilst munching on pigs in blankets, drinking bucks fizz and watching The Grinch. The dream, we know.

Everyone used to only think of a 'Christmas jumper' as something hand-knitted by your gran, which, if that's your thing is totally acceptable (and wholesome). However, can you blame us for wanting something a little more - well - chic? If we're going to be wrapping ourselves in them for Christmas dinner, and wrapping them up as the best Christmas presents for her, then we want something cute that we can wear again and again.

Christmas jumpers don't have to be tacky or novelty, they can be totally chic and very understated, too. So to prove it, these top picks are so stylish you can even wear them to the office... Christmas really has come early.

Whether you're looking to snap up something to wear throughout the entirety of December or just something sweet to throw on for a Christmas party, we've found the best places to snap up a Christmas jumper on the high street.
