Christmas probably is my favorite holiday. The baking, the shopping, the gift-wrapping, the somewhat annoying music, I love it all!
I've noticed many of the bloggers I follow are sporting gorgeous holiday dresses and their tacky Christmas sweaters; I figured I should, too!
Since there's no such thing as fancy or formal Christmas parties where I come from, I'll skip the pretty dresses and just get to the tacky sweaters.

Pardon my squinting in some of these photos; it was pretty bright outside. Anyway, I found this festive red sweater at a local thrift store. Aren't the little snow-people cute?
I decided to belt it to give the look a little more shape, although it was pretty cute without it, too. I just love the bright red! How can you get more Christmassy than that?
My furry boots here are from a flea-market. My adorable little brown clutch came from a local store called Charmed.
Did I mention that this post is a double-feature? That's right! When I bought the red sweater above, I also picked up this awesomely tacky Santa-Claus sweatshirt.
I knew this sweatshirt, being quite loose, would make my top half look larger, but so what? I decided to wear my flared jeans, which I got at a thrift store. I'm pretty pleased with it. Also, how comfy can you get? Jeans and a sweatshirt? Sign me up anytime! I added silver heels and earrings for a little more fun.
So apparently, ugly sweater parties are a pretty big deal. Unfortunately for this would-be party goer, they aren't that common around here. Some do have them, but not that many. Do I let that stop me? Heck no! I'll rock my tacky Christmas sweaters whenever and wherever I want! I've worn both of these shopping already, and I'll probably wear one outfit each for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
Who says wonderfully tacky Christmas sweaters are only for parties?
