by Ashley Berg

With the start of the holiday season comes a plethora of parties to attend. From family gatherings to office parties, you're sure to need a snazzy ugly Christmas sweater to wear for each occasion. Showing up family and friends with the best (worst?) holiday sweater has become a yearly tradition for many. Instead of sporting a traditional holiday sweater this season, why not try something new — a cat-themed ugly Christmas sweater!

The traditional holiday characters such as reindeer, Santa, and snowmen are cute and all, but they have become a bit over done throughout the years.
