Everyone Needs A Christmas Sweater!

Oh why it's the Christmas season and finally we are getting some cold weather here in south Louisiana! One of my favorite things ever is walking outside during this time of year and you can just smell christmas! You know what i'm talking about. It's when a brisk cold breeze blows by and you get a chill right down to your bones (because our cold is a lovely damp wet cold). Add the scent of burning wood and evergreens and you've got the smell of Christmas season! 

Well the other day I got an invite to a christmas party! And not just any christmas party but an UGLY christmas sweater party Ha! I know what your thinking....awesome right! For the past couple of years I've seen tons of facebook pictures with people all over having these festive ugly sweater gatherings and I've always wanted to go to one. The whole idea is just so stinking hilarious to me. I was seriously contemplating having one of my own this christmas but an invite came along which is even better (now I don't have to plan anything;) - p.s. thanks Lala

"Why blog about ugly sweaters?" you might ask, well because this just goes to show that there are some things in your closet that you should never let go of! (even if someone else is telling you to BURN IT)

• Tip 4: everyone should have at least one ugly christmas sweater in their possession.

   I promis it will make you as happy as this guy.... 

hmm I just don't know if there is anything more attractive than a man in a turtleneck

And if anyone is wanting to jump on the bandwagon of having one of these seasonal parties (which you should!) there is even an entire website dedicated to this new found tradition! UglyChristmasSweaterParty.com even gives you great gift, game, and snack ideas for your holiday shenanigans. I can't wait to go to my neighborhood goodwill and find a treasure of a sweater! 

Here are some other great examples of holiday must haves:

Don't be scared to go 3 dimensional either! 

It's also very popular to pair a holiday sweater vest with a festive turtleneck. As we all know layering is very in this season!

Don't worry about mixing prints it's all the rage!

All in all the tackier the better! I hope you guys have fun finding those sweaters Merry Christmas!!!

singing off
