I don't have a pic, but the most Christmasy I got was Shetland coat, pink OCBD, green cords and #8 shell shoes. One occasion I wore a red ground repp tie with a kelly green stripe, and on another a drab green wool tie with dark red woven figures. My mother pronounced the latter tie "not really Christmasy."
On NYE, it was the same Shetland coat (embracing my anti-modernity), khaki moleskins, and a blue OCBD, no tie. I was with the hick in-laws, and a tie would have freaked them out. The coat alone almost did.
We have something in common Manton.. I have one of these that I try to pass off as Christmasy also. Never works for me; glad it does for you..
