Throw the season's best ugliest Christmas sweater party
20.05.12
, By Brian Miller , Adam Paulson and Kevin Wool aka, "Team Ugly" of www.ugly christmassweaterparty.com . The website offers a winter wonderland of ugly sweaters. An aunt or grandmother's closet is also a great place to hunt for some sweet sweater action.Holiday hipsters can pick up knitted wonders of Christmas past at resale shops or new ones at stores like Urban Outfitters, which sells reindeer sweaters for $90, and online outlet Vardegen.com, which offers five versions of the Original Ugly Sweater T-shirt for $20 each.
As an attendee of an ugly-sweater party, you are obligated to don the most awful, shockingly colorful, blindingly atrocious cardigan or pullover available on the market.
But what if you are throwing an ugly-sweater party this year? With a little planning, you can make yours the invitation of the season.
"It's all about being comfortable and casual," says event planner Doyin Fashakin of Events by Doyin. "It's December and cold. You don't want to have to wear dresses. I think that's what gets people interested. They don't have to dress up."
