— November 20, 2012 — Special
The holiday season hosts the most popular party of all, the ‘Ugly Christmas Sweater’ party. This shindig involves seeking out and purchasing the most ridiculous sweater one can find. This adventure can be a difficult endeavor to complete, but search no longer with this list of hilarious holiday sweater features. From eccentric holiday sweaters to woolen audio accessories, the expansion of holiday sweaters has drastically expanded to new levels.

Sweaters no longer are the only victims of the dreadful array of prints, but rather head phones and shoes are getting the Christmas treatment as well. The Christmas sweater idea is a fun way to bring family and friends together. This holiday tradition has even extended to other religions and expanded to haute couture.
