Ugly Christmas sweaters may be the first knit that comes to mind when planning your outfit for holiday soirees, but there's something so merry and bright about a cute Christmas sweater that matches the magic and beauty of the season. Like a little black dress is to cocktail attire, a Christmas sweater is a staple of the holiday season that you can wear throughout the winter to show off your holly jolly spirit.
