Help!

What should I wear to my four (!) office Christmas parties?

In particular, I am thinking of buying a new jacket and / or pair of trousers. This would preferably be by mail order (because going shopping this close to Christmas is not my idea of fun!), and somewhere that did next day delivery would be useful. I'm looking for something fairly fitted, so somewhere that did sizes like "44L" (in fact, just like "44L") would be better than sizes like "Large".

Any advice would be appreciated! In fact, if you find the right outfit for me, I'll buy you a drink next time we meet!

In other news, I've had a v stressful day at work, so I've cracked open the Dorothy Goodbody's Wholesome Stout.

ETA: Although I have got my name in print :-) (Bonus mark for anyone working out where ... )

But you do need a jolly tie. And possibly some musical socks.

You're getting further away from that drink, you know! ;-)

Bu-bu-but it is *Christmas*. You need silly clothes...Or is that just me?

I do have a Taz waistcoat, but aren't I too old and staid for the silly clothes now?

No, you are old enough to be back into doing so again :D
Taz is so last decade though. M&S have some tasteful red snowflake socks though and Tesco had some okay Xmas ties for £3, last time I looked.
