Everyday Bombshell - Ugly Christmas Sweater

Ugly Christmas sweaters are as ubiquitous now (worn as a joke) as they were back in the 80's/early 90's (worn in all festive seriousness).  But that doesn't make it any less fun to pull one on and gather with friends.  Or co-workers, as I did during my office's Ugly Christmas Sweater Day.

I really enjoy working with a fun group of people who do silly things like this.  But you know...I didn't want to just throw on an ugly, shapeless sweater and call it a day.  Oh no.  I wanted to put a Bombshell spin on it.  And so - my take on the ugly Christmas sweater:


I paired my ugly sweater, which is really bulky, with a slim-fitting sheath dress. 
To help add a little shape to my shape, I belted the sweater. 

When accessorizing an over-accessorized sweater, I say more is more.
Big, chunky necklace + big dangly earrings and lots of bracelets. 

The Outfit:
Ugly sweater- Ragstock
Sheath dress- Alfani Woman
Pointy heels - Payless shoes
Earrings- Fred Flare
Medallion necklace- Forever 21
Cuff bracelet- Forever 21
Murano bead bracelets- Red Envelope
