Taking a study break from this plethora of study-madness happening around UCB Campus at the moment, and wanted to make a post related to something happy and fun -- two things that I am yearning at the moment.  AND, this is going to be another Christmas-related post!  As you can tell, I am very excited for Christmas to come in 2 weeks!!  Time flies.

So, this coming weekend, I am going to attend a family party get-together, with traditional white elephant game, but something new is happening this year with an ugly christmas sweater theme, whoever has the ugliest gets a prize ;P.  I love how we can incorporate ironic fashion into the mix of the holiday season.  And so the search for inspiration for the best ugly christmas sweater begins! Join me :).

All-time fave ugly christmas sweater photo:

I guess 3d christmas sweaters can make a very ugly one indeed, no offense rudolph!

Never knew Santa's face can be used as ornaments, until this.

Better yet, wouldn't it be cool to have a 3d santa as your friend on your belly for the entire party?

And now i'll just end this post on a happy non-ugly note, with Ryan Gosling..not wrapped in an ugly christmas sweater but christmas lights ;).

Merry almost Christmas everyone!!
