BONUS POST! Happy New Year!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

I hope you had a great 2012, but I hope you have an even better 2013!

One last post to close out this year!

Happy New Year!

I found this gem while I was searching for Christmas sweaters.
Isn't it fabulous?!


While my blog is for Christmas sweaters, 
I couldn't pass up the opportunity to share this one with everyone.

Cheers to the freakin' New Year
I'll drink to that! Yeah-ee-yeah-uh!

I hope everyone has a fun, yet safe, night!
I'm going out with my friend Melanie!

Think I'll get a New Year's kiss?!

Have fun!

Year Two: Day Twenty Five!


MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!!

I hope everyone has had a magical holiday with family and loved ones!

It's been a busy day for the Tracy Family.
We've been running around all day celebrating with lots of family.
It's been a good Christmas. :)

Now, without further ado...

Here is the final sweater for this Christmas season!

Day 25!

I thought this one was the perfect one to end this year.

The End!

-----------------------------


Now, we have two more final guest submissions!

First up, we have my friend Kyle modeling his GRINCH shirt!

He's a mean one.


And last, but not least, is a group of Milligan girls wearing their Christmas apparel!

Raging so hard.

They are all so lovely! 

-------------------------

I want to thank everyone for another successful year of 
Brennan's 25 Days of Ugly Christmas Apparel!

I've enjoyed sharing my love for ugly sweaters with you all again. 
:)

The Tracy Family!

Have a wonderful New Year!

Love,

- Brennan




P.S. Stay tuned for a bonus post soon....!

Year Two: Day Twenty Four!

IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE!!!

And it's my dad's birthday! 
Hooray!!!!
As tradition, we put Christmas celebrations on hold,
and we had a nice birthday celebration for Papa Tracy.
:)

But, while our Christmas celebrating is on hold,
that doesn't mean this blog is!!

And today's sweater is the only repeat from last year.
It's such a fantastic sweater, I can't help but wear it again.
It's my new tradition! 


Day 24!

This is honestly the most epic sweater EVER.



Classic. Just so classic.

----------------------

Now, another guest submission.

Rebecca Miller is at it again!

Rebecca and Tori! 

So much epic, I can't even handle it.

That's it for today! 
Hope you have a lovely Christmas eve!

Don't forget to leave out cookies and milk for Santa!

Year Two: Day Twenty Three!

First off: Life question.
Am I supposed to be putting in hyphens in numbers?
Like is it "Twenty Three" or is it "Twenty-Three"??
Someone, please let me know.
I'm super paranoid now.
I'm a failure. This why I wasn't an English major.

-------------------------

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!
I got to go visit a lot of my cousins, and it was awesome.
I love my family. :)

We're almost done with this year's ugly apparel! 
Only two more days until CHRISTMAS!

And now, we have today's sweater!

Day 23!

I'm so deep.

What is Christmas apparel without a huge tree on your torso?!

Gems, beads, and buttons, oh my!

Am I the only one who is just slightly confused why there is a Christmas tree, 
yet it says Happy Holidays?

Ah well. Whatever. Not gonna get into that now.

------------------------

We have a few guest submissions today!
HOORAY!
Guest pictures are my favorite.


First up, we have my lovely friend Emily and her family!
Love it!
Also, if you will notice...
They are holding a BABY GOAT WEARING A CHRISTMAS SWEATER.
This makes me so happy. You have NO IDEA.
AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

Today, we also have a picture of my good friend Jared's baby nice Mia!

AWWWWWWW!

When babies wear sweaters, it isn't ugly. It's the most adorable thing ever.

CUTENESS OVERLOAD, PEOPLE. 

And that's all we have for today, folks!

Also, you're running out of time to submit your own photos!

I'm off to eat some soup.

Stay tacky, folks,

This vest is like 3 sizes too small.
So hot.

Year Two: Day Seventeen and Eighteen!

Hey friends!

My apologies for slacking!
Things are kind of crazy around here lately.
But I haven't abandoned my project here, so don't worry!

So, I know that Christmas is a week from today (OWEIHASDKHDGKH!!!!)
And you might be attending a Christmas party this weekend, but are in need of a stellar outfit.
However, your favorite thrift stores are running low on awesome sweaters and shirts.
(Or you already purchased everything because you run a blog... shhh...)

HAVE NO FEAR!
Your local Walmart has a (somewhat small) collection of Christmas apparel! 

Here is parts one and two of the three part WALMART SAGA.

PART ONE:
Day 17!
HO HO HO!

In this picture I am recreating the line from Twas the Night Before Christmas...
"He had a broad face and a little round belly, that shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly."

Because that's my real life.

Also, yes. There is a creepy owl in our Christmas tree. 
Don't ask about it. I don't know anything.
It just showed up.


Christina has been so naughty this year... Tsk, tsk.

Also. I don't understand why the Naughty/Nice list is in his pocket.
Have the creators of this shirt not seen the movie The Santa Clause?
I think too much about these things. 

Anyway. A classic shirt you can purchase at your local Walmart.


PART TWO:
Day 18!

Pretty self explanatory.

How am I still single?



That's it for today! The final part of the WALMART SAGA is tomorrow!

Stay tacky,

- Brennan

Year Two: Day Fifteen and Sixteen!

Hello everyone!
I hope you all are having a fantastic weekend.
My apologies for not updating yesterday....
I have no excuse.

However, you'll get a double dose today!
And we have a couple guest submissions!
HOORAY!

We'll start off with yesterday's sweater: 
Day 15!

I swear I'm not high in this picture.
I have issues with flash photography.
Always have, always will.

Anyway... It's Santa! he's riding a wagon!

SANTA! I KNOW HIM!!

It's so classic.

Alright, moving right along with today's sweater!

Day 16!

Hooray for reindeer!

Rudolf the red-scarfed reindeer! 

I call this particular sweater "The Sequel Sweater."
It reminds me a whole lot like one of my favorites from last year.
Day 6, 2011

Check it:

E. RAINES! Love that girl.

Ahhh, good times!

And here are a few guest submissions! 

First off, we have the lovely Sabrina Graham and her mom!


VEST!
:)

BOW!

Looking good, ladies!!! 



Next, my good friend Rebecca Miller sent me a picture.
She and a bunch of friends entered an Ugly Sweater Contest, and she won!!!
Rebecca is the one in the red, second from the right.

So much beauty in this picture. I can't even handle it.


And to end this post, here is an article about Christmas Sweaters a friend sent me.
Check it out!

Year Two: Day Fourteen!

Hey friends!

Sorry this is posted late... I've had a super busy day.

Today concludes CHRISTMAS VEST WEEK!
I hope you've enjoyed them.

Here's the last one..

Day 14!

Look at all those little Santas decorating for Christmas!


Theory: There is more than one Santa.
 That's how he gets everywhere in one night.
Thoughts??

Even though it is a little big on me, it's still cute! haha.

The back. Precious. 


Have a good weekend, folks!

Year Two: Day Thirteen!

Oh, hello. Didn't see you there.

I was just wearing my new Christmas sweater dress vest
because it's CHRISTMAS VEST WEEK.

Day 13!
It's a little bit too large... Oh well.

A lovely tassel on the zipper.
Precious.

Since when do snowmen wear trees for hats?
I don't even know.

And there we have it. 

Last vest day tomorrow!

Leave comments, submit your photos, and share with your friends!

Year Two: Day Eleven!

Dearly beloved,

Happy Tuesday.

I hope your life is swell.

Okay, enough small talk...

LET CHRISTMAS VEST WEEK CONTINUE!!! 

Hooray!


Day 11!
Not a whole lot of comments that can be made about this sweater vest...

Except the fact that it's sparkly and Christmasy.  


Poinsettia is a weird word.
It is also hard to spell.
How do you even pronounce it correctly?
Whatever.
------------------

Now friends.
We need to have a little chat.

At the moment I am typing this, 
this blog has had 11,434 hits since I first launched this last year.
BOOM. MY MIND HAS EXPLODED.
This is amazing! 
Thank you all for checking out my blog every day!

HOWEVER!
I am asking (pretty please, with sugar on top!) if you would please leave some comments below.
I want to hear your feedback and suggestions and love.

Also, as you continue going to Tacky Christmas Sweater parties the next few weeks,
please submit your photos
I would like this to be a group project.
