I have a confession to make. It’s a little piece of my sordid past that very few people know about. I’ve tried to keep it hidden, but full restitution cannot be made until I come clean. So here goes.
A long time ago, when I was a 3rd grade teacher, I fell prey to one of the biggest fashion disasters of the 20th century — the holiday sweater. The good part is, I was not alone. I am about to show you something that will horrify and shock you. I hope you’re sitting down.

That is just TOO funny! I must confess, I feel your pain! There are pictures of me in a get up very similar to yours floating around somewhere (I just hope I don’t ever have to see them again!LOL)
Oh, and I am in LOVE with that Talbots Cardigan…Great find!
Thanks a bunch!
I have a few of those my own self. =) I guess the key is to NEVER EVER NO MATTER WHAT allow anyone to take your pic while wearing holiday wear.
This Grammie would not be caught dead in one!
Bahahahahha…..flashback to my college days when my roomate was an elem. ed major. Oh, the sweaters and sweatshirts that came through our door!
Oh, you are so pretty in that gray sweater (by the Christmas tree).
I had a holiday denim shirt with snowmen on it…you are definitly not alone!
