9 Funny Holiday Sweaters To Wear To Your Next Party (If You Must)

Some people thrive in the creative environment that end-of-the-year holiday parties incite. Others, (like me) panic at the pressure of having to be innovative (a.k.a. funny and original). I'd rather wear a straight-from-the-box Halloween costume than be tasked with creating a culturally relevant or punny idea to be judged on for one evening.

So, you can imagine that receiving an invite to an ugly Christmas sweater themed party is pretty on par with the office costume competition (again, for me). Guests one-upping one another with "hilarious," if sometimes slightly offensive, graphic sweaters or hideous showstopping knits sourced in faraway places or hard-to-find vintage stores can be a nightmare. But luckily, unlike Halloween, you don’t have to worry about coming up with a creative concept yourself. There are already tons of genuinely funny options available for purchase. So put your crafting scissors away and prepare to fool everyone into at least thinking you're a naturally creative person with the humorous holiday sweaters ahead.
