I see it as a poppy marketing ploy. Get some people on TV to wear
poppies early and the sale of poppies will start early. By the 11th
day new poppies will be needed.

I got one made of ceramic on Ebay from an artist in Wales, in fact I got
a small one and a larger one ( proceeds got to help for heroes) and
actually wear the little one all the time, but then Tom was shot in
N.I.!
I see no reason why you can't wear them whenever you want but I take
your point about the 'official' wearing of them on TV.
They are selling them in at least 2 Wyevales around here.
