Morning, bit of a biased question given the nature of this group, but is it a cultural thing to dress up for Christmas and New Year's? Saw a post on Threads where someone attended a family event in Europe, think the husband was American and the wife's family European. The husband attended in decent but casual clothing while the wife's family were in suits and dresses. Wondering if this is a European thing, given this group is, I assume, heavily American, hoping for a good comparison of views. The comments were either 'why are they dressed up, who dresses up for Christmas/New Year's' or 'Everyone dresses up for Christmas and New Year's'. No in between, one extreme or the other. I never knew this was a thing, and if I'm honest, I've never dressed up for either. In our family, we're in pyjamas all day for both. At first, I thought the post was in reference to extended family get-togethers, which would have made sense, but I think it was just the family on Christmas Day and New Year's Eve at home. I've also noticed it in a group chat I'm in for my volunteer work; everyone who put in greeting videos was clearly dressed up. So my question is, is it a cultural/social class thing to dress up for Christmas and New Year's, or something everyone does? Thanks.

How many people still have and use cufflinks? It seems to be less common over the years to see men rocking a nice set which is a shame.

So 'style' question. Not traditional style, but what's everyone's stance on signatures and how they're written when signing documents? I've always signed my name in print, but wondering what everyone's opinion is on that and how it ties into a personal style and social standing. We haven't taught cursive in Britain since the 60s/70s, so my signature has only ever been in print.
