Let’s get real - it’s the day after Christmas and my pants are feeling a little tight. In fact, don’t mind me while I unbutton my jeans.
Much better.
Is it just me or have you seen a plethora of horrible, HORRIBLE holiday sweaters this year? This abomination of fashion has been quite the hot topic around my family’s home lately, and since we all are feeling a little comatose from the onslaught of holiday gatherings, I figured it would be a good week to keep it light.
Without further ado, I give you the Horrible Holiday Sweater Bonanza.
This one glows in the dark. GLOWS IN THE DARK, PEOPLE.

Is it scary that I actually like that glow-in-the-dark sweater? Minus the glowing part, of course, but the design is probably the best out of all those you’ve shown.

Good work, Whoorl, good work. Yeah, I will never get the appeal of these. But my dear sweet mother-in law, bless her heart, she sure does!

What you have done just here is a cyber-miracle. You have just single-handedly assembled my mother’s quilting bee in mannequin form. I’m impressed.
(pass me the rum, stat… needed to offset the bedazzlement)

I confess; I wear seasonal sweaters to work. I am an elementary teacher, and my kiddos love and need the acknowledgement of the holiday season. However, these “featured” sweaters are awful!!
(Is it better that I buy mine at thrift stores so I don’t waste money?)

Great article! Love those sweaters. Very funny!
Thanks for sharing.

You would have to pay me (A LOT of money) to wear those sweaters. Though a Holiday Sweater party might be in order for next year…

Actually, these are better than many of the ones that I’ve seen in recent years. Forgive us, we live in the midwest, and the outside world of fashion doesn’t easily penetrate:).

Thank god it’s summer here in Oz, cause there is no WAY I want us to follow or emulate this particular American Tradition!!

Those are great. A friend of mine went to an Ugly Sweater party, I wish she would have had these for options!
