Trends and Must-Haves

I came across an "Ugly Sweater" photoshoot - students doing an assignment for their photography course - and thought it charming. No more, no less.

Only now I have discovered that ugly sweaters are all the rage. Ugly sweater parties are popping up all over the globe, with the original one attributed to Vancouver. Sweaters, especially the ugly ones, are flying off the racks and vintage stores are running low on them.

Eight years on since the original party. What will come of this trend? Oh, our ability to laugh at ourselves knows no bounds.
