If you intend to purchase your ugly sweater, here are some guidelines to buying and wearing it: • Get a sweater that fits well – Ensure you get a sweater that fits you perfectly. Remember, the idea is having an ugly sweater and not an ill-fitting one. These sweaters come in different sizes so you are guaranteed of finding one that fits. • Pay attention to the theme – Not all sweaters have an appropriate theme therefore be careful when selecting lest you end up with adult themed sweaters that will end up being a source of embarrassment. To be safe, always go for a sweater whose theme matches the party you are attending. The rule of thumb is that you should always go with a design that wear comfortably. • Consider the material – You do not want to win the ugliest Christmas sweater contest at the expense of your comfort. Be sure to get a thick sweater that is cozy. Remember not all knitted delights are the same as they are made from varied kinds of yarns. • Wear you sweater with the right undergarment – You will do well to wear a thin garment on the inside for sweaters that are uncomfortable and static. Your choice of undergarments will also help you avoid the possibility of skin irritation caused by the sweater as your skin will not come into direct contact with irritant. Ultimately, ensure you are comfortable in both. In summary, whether you are wearing your ugly sweater during the festive season or not, be sure to stay warm.
