Tacky Sweaters

We attended Katie and Maggie's annual Tacky Christmas Sweater Party at My Brother's place bar. Angela has declared that this is her favorite Christmas party, and it's mine too (even though it's usually my only Christmas party).

Since I always have to complicate things and be different, I went with more of a slutty outfit rather than tacky. I actually made this little Mrs. Claus outfit out of a Wet Seal dress and some Party City supplies. Matt was excited about his tacky sweater find at Macy's in the woman's department. He especially liked the built in collar and shoulder pads.

Ang's boy, Troy also got creative with his Uncle Eddie sweater (from National Lampoon's Christmas vacation) complete with a homemade turtleneck dickey. Ang and I had to convince Troy that a dickey is a real thing that women actually purchase.

Lis and Serge were too cool for tacky and came looking fashionable as usual.

It was a great night with lots of tackiness, and it was fun finding out where people dug up their sweaters. Unfortunately, our sweaters weren't special enough to win any prizes this year. We'll have to step it up next year.
