Well, it nearly is. With Christmas approaching, it\u2019s time to dust of your your dancing shoes and start opening the bubbles. Despite the holiday cheer, keeping up with the social festivities can be pretty stressful. But it\u2019s never too late to start getting organised, so check out our top tips for surviving the season.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>1. Plan your \u2018drobe<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a well-known fact amongst friends that I start planning my December outfits way back in August. Get the top Xmas outfits now before there\u2019s a mad dash in November from the rest of the galdem.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>2. Prepare the presents<\/h3>\n<p>No one wants to spend a day in December rushing around a shopping centre trying to buy all the gifts. If you start prepping now, you\u2019ll have more time and money to celebrate later. Simples!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>3. Organise the celebrations<\/h3>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re a party planner or not, agreeing on a venue with your girls for Christmas drinks now will save a lot of future stress. Get it booked and save yourself a feisty AF WhatsApp group showdown.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>4. The Office Do<\/h3>\n<p>Every knows that the office do is the best work party of the year. Find out the address and venue, and see if you need to book any transportation or accommodation. Plus if you suss out the theme early enough, you can be the best dressed there!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>5. Stay safe and take care<\/h3>\n<p>Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year, but it\u2019s also important to take care of yourself. Look after yourself and your mates, and enjoy the festivities gurl! You deserve it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[172],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-41779","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized-au-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
