Delicious Yuletide friends! Note the ammonium tang in London's air. Note the suspicious conglomeration of milky sludge between the cobbles. The Neath is about to 'snow' again!
Fear not. If you are snowed out of your lodgings, a variety of helpful souls stand ready to assist. We've made some small changes from last year:
1) If you spend Nex to clear your path, there is no longer a delay before receiving your Incarnadine Robe. This means you can obtain multiple robes over the Christmas season.
2) Two new Home Comforts have been added to the options to choose from after obtaining an Incarnadine robe.

I believe Mr. Stone's is Bizarre, from what I heard.

Yep. Bizarre & persuasive. If you click 'ancient' profile below, I have echoed Mr Stones' bit of text

Great! I had a robe saved from my Nadir misadventures! Now I'm plagued with indecision... Mr Apples or Mr Stones?

I just got Mr. Stones gift too and the description of the item in my inventory got a genuine laugh out loud from me. I love it.

Picked up Mr Stones' item with last year's robe, and acquired a new robe to hang onto for possibly the whole year again. The new items are excellent.

If anyone is interested, I picked Mr. Apples gift and echoed the text.
I might still have to get a second robe, if that's possible. That Paperweight looks awesome.

Well, sharks are cool too I guess, but:

Seconding this. It's basically a D20 with correspondence symbols on it. Who would not want such a thing?

Well, looks like I'm buying fate Tuesday night. I needed to get to my lodgings while on my tablet at work, so I couldn't pick up the robe this time, but I simply must have Mr. Stones' gift!

Does one have to have used a Robe before acquiring another? Or can we hold more than one at the same time before cashing one or both (or all) of them in?

You have to have 0 robes in order to get another (it's a pre-requisite for the Fate option on the snowbound storylet)

I made the mistake of clearing my path before reading this thread.
I thought, "Oh, it's fine. I'll just get the robe later. After all, you can only get one a year. You've got all the time in the world, Nigel!"
Silly, silly Nigel. When will you learn?

Due to a well known fate-locked opportunity, I have had four(I think?) robes simultaneously, and was able to cash each one of them in for a different reward.
Of course, that wasn't from the snowed in storylet, so it might have a constraint.
