A Champion Christmas Sweater

Wow . . .So I took a bit of a long hiatus following the 30 Blogs of Me, but I am back now and feeling pretty festive. The Christmas season has snuck right up on me as usual. Though there will be no 12 Blogs of Christmas this year I can promise you several Christmas related blogs starting with this one!

This year I attended one of the best Christmas Parties ever, The Ugly/Tacky Christmas Sweater Party and yes I can now claim to be the first ever HR/Training Team Ugly/Tacky Christmas Sweater winner!!!

What does take to achieve this greatness do you ask? Well, let me just tell you . . .

1. You must have a truly Ugly Christmas Sweater. I would like to the thank the great folks at Christmas Vintage on EBay for selling me this gem. Nothing says Merry Christmas quite like fuzzy swans.

2. Accessorize! This is one instance where LESS is NEVER MORE! This outfit features a wonderfully awful necklace with giant Christmas light bulbs, jingle bell earrings, and some awesome reindeer antlers. I am also wearing red and white toe socks with flip flops. I know you cant’s see them in the pic but trust me I am wearing them!

3. Let your Mom help you! I would like to give a special thanks to my Mom for letting me borrow the very special turtle neck I am wearing. It features a hugging snowman and snow woman. I was told this really MADE the outfit.

4. Make your spouse dress up too! No one should be tacky alone. So naturally I dressed my dearly beloved up too Smile Thanks for playing along Nick!

5. Don’t be afraid to have fun with it! It’s ugly, it’s tacky but it is ohhh so much fun to have an excuse to look bad! As they say . . .Go big or go home!!!

Follow these simple steps and I am sure that you can be an Ugly/Tacky Christmas Sweater Champion too!

PS- My sweater is available and it is a WINNER!
