This Friday, December 17, 2021, we are relaxing. For two very simple reasons:it is a few hours later the start of the Christmas holidays but it is also International Christmas Sweater Day; which allows, if desired, to push very far the limits of the ridiculous, personally we love it!
But if you don't assume the kitch side of this fashion piece, good news! It is quite possible to wear it keeping a decent style and thereby his dignity.
Established in2011 , the ultimate goal of this day is simple:have fun ! But not in any way, the whole thing being to respect the folklore and to wear a big wool sweater with typical Christmas motifs . Anything but discreet, your sweater is adorned with reindeer, fir trees, Santa Claus or even quirky quotes with a more or less tasteful Christmas sauce. Color level, plus tones are screaming , the more you are in the theme; when you are told that it is a form of celebration of the kitsch spirit, we are not kidding.
This day is a tradition that we would not miss for anything in the world but there is no question of sacrificing our outfit. If it will not be the day of good taste par excellence, you can nevertheless respect the theme
If you're chilly and this story of ugly sweater isn't really your cup of tea, opt for a Christmas sweater that's less kitsch than tradition would have it, with jacquard patterns for example adorned with a few discreet garlands or elegantly designed reindeer. To fully play the shift that this day glorifies, put on the wacky sweater of your dreams but balance your look by wearing chic and feminine pieces . Pair it with a long pleated skirt even a sequined skirt to put on your 31; yes, anything is possible with a ridiculous sweater, as long as it blends in with the crowd. The leather pants or coated denim is also a good idea, the textures adding the touch of good taste that your outfit has been missing.
Finally, our favorite look to adopt the Christmas sweater and go the fashionista is to put on a white shirt dress under her xxl knit sweater and letting the so chic collar stick out, cinching everything with a big belt and putting on a pair of thigh high boots. We promise, you won't pass for a clown and you may even be asked for the reference of your pretty sweater!
And if your outfit isn't perfect and doesn't reflect your sharp style for the rest of the year, don't panic, don't be afraid of ridicule, that's the whole charm of this day.
