holiday sweater season is upon us!
Somewhere along the way, the festive holiday sweater has become synonymous with the “ugly Christmas sweater.” And while we have nothing against not taking oneself (or sweaters) too seriously, we also prefer to spend our hard-earned money on sweaters that we can wear multiple times throughout the winter. After all, why limit the cheer to just one party or one day?
If you’re on the hunt for a holiday sweater, we’ve curated 12 options that cover the bases from traditional Christmas motifs to kaleidoscopic colors to sparkle and shine. Forget beautiful or ugly — we prefer the terms festive and spirited!
