Mistletoes, christmas lights and candy canes. They're what most of us look forward to every Christmas. And of course, the holiday season would never really be complete without an ugly Christmas sweater. The ugly sweater trend is a yearly tradition of how you refer to the sweaters your grandma would show up in at family Christmas get-togethers (no offence, Grandma!). What started off as a joke is now considered one of the holiday season's most fun tradition. They're the perfect gag gift! If you happen to receive one, it doesn't have to kill your style. Here's how you can rock these un-ugly sweaters and get in the festive spirit. Look ho-ho-hot like never before.
1) Make it edgy
A style you can easily pull it off and it further proves that you can always pair anything crafted with suede or leather to an edge appeal and look trend-right. No matter how wrong your outfit combination is, the edgy look will defy the odds. Team your reindeer themed Christmas sweater with a suede skirt with trendy lace-up details that will create a one-of-a-kind outfit that will make all your friends jealous. Finish off the look by lacing up a pair of leather boots which are over the ankles. The perfect outfit to be dancing to Jingle Bell Rock!

2) Christmas overalls
If edgy is not your kind of style, go for a laid-back vibe instead. After all, you're supposed to let loose and have fun. Opt to match your sweater with a pair of denim overalls for a casual look. It's seems weird like a country style vibe but the unexpected combo works. Lace up a pair of combat boots that will match effortlessly.

3) Christmas skirt vs Christmas sweater
Still not convinced about the sweaters but can't shake off that Christmas mood? An ugly Christmas skirt looks more chic and it just shows a skater skirt can instantly add a feminine flare to anything. Balance out the loud and vibrant tones of the skirt with simple basics so you won't be looking like a Christmas tree. For this outfit, I've put together a Christmas skater skirt with a comfy knitted turtleneck. Add on a classic pair of boots that's always evergreen.
