953 nut 63,082 #1 Posted 2 hours ago December twentieth is the day to observe National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day. Wear your most garish knitwear with pride, add some tacky accessories and organize a jumper auction to fundraise for Save the Children. Lurking in the murky depths of many people’s wardrobes is a colorful, brash and (in most cases) highly embarrassing novelty Christmas sweater which, were it not for National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day, would probably never see the light of day. The English language doesn’t have a special word for something that’s both ugly and cherished, but other languages do. In Japanese it’s known as busakawa. In French, it’s jolie laide. And the idea is that there are some things in life that are so ugly, they’re beautiful. National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day is all about honoring those things that are so ugly that everyone loves them! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
