The fact that there is now a Santa on my can of coke means it’s officially Christmas guys. That and the fact I can’t seem to turn on the telly without blubbering at some advert – (thanks John Lewis really – thanks) so I think I am perfectly justified in yearning for a fugly Christmas jumper. Don’t get me wrong – I do love a good old trawl of the charities to find “The Most Hideous Christmas Sweater Ever” but I also love me a good knit and you know what – not all of them are awful. As in – some of them have actual REAL life longevity. I mean yeah, they are festive but quite frankly I think I could TOTALLY get away with a reindeer cardigan in January and not look like a total creepasaur. Just about.
Do I have favourites? Well the Topshop Holly Knit is gorgeous but £50 may be a bit of a push ever for a Christmas head such as me for something I can only really wear (all be it constantly) for a couple of months. I was super surprised by Asda though as they have some actually gorgeous knits in at the mo and their Reindeer jumper is super cute. The River Island guy for me just reminds me of Christmas wrapping in the best way possible.
Will you be donning some fugly knit this year?
