Day 4 - The Rudolph Sweatshirt

The Rudolph Sweatshirt

I spent the day again in my room for the most part, so I knew I wanted a really comfortable outfit.  So, it came down to a few of the sweatshirts that I own.  They are very christmassy, and remind me of my mother, because she had many a Christmas sweatshirt back in the day.  

I chose this one because it's one of the fuzzier ones on the inside.  It's quite charming, however, with the image of Rudolph looking over at Santa, who is holding a present.  IT's charming and happy and represents everything my day of writing and planning this paper WASN'T.  

Day 3 - The Eskridge Family T-Shirt

The Eskridge Family T-Shirt

Today was reading day, so when I got dressed this morning I knew most of my time would be spent lounging about my room, finishing up some assignments.  I didn't want to waste one of my better outfits when no one would see it, so I decided to go with the tried-and-true Eskridge Family T-Shirt.  

The T-Shirt was given to me last Christmas by my aunt and uncle.  The whole family got one, and we were required to pose for the stereotypical awkward family Christmas photo in the shirts.  

The shirt is super comfy, so it was perfect for an overly lazy reading day.  

Day 2 - The Mitten Sweater

The Mitten Sweater

Today was an eventful day.  I had two tests, and then a Christmas party hosted by Cru, the on-campus organization I attend, to go to.  I was super excited for the day, so I got on one of my favorite Christmas sweaters.  

This sweater is the appropriate ammount of itchy, just a little but not to much.  It has snowflakes that cover the entire sweater.  It is also a classic zipper-front, with two red yarn pom-pom balls that pull the zipper up and down.  

My favorite part, however, has to be the mittens featured prominently on the front.  They come with a string that goes up around the neck of the sweater, like I used to be forced to wear as a child so I didn't loose my mittens.  The mittens also double as pockets, so when you put your hands in the pockets, it looks as if you are wearing the mittens.  One of my absolute favorites!  

25 Days of Christmas (Sweaters): Day 1 - The Green Snowman Sweater-Vest

I, Kailyn Eskridge am on a mission.  A mission to own 25 Christmas Sweaters/Vests/Outfits, enough to wear a different one each day of December.  

I am not yet up to the number 25, so I will be forced to repeat the sweaters this year, but I hope to one day reach my dream.  And carry on the tradition to annoy and embarrass my future children. For the blog, I will post here about my endeavor and let you enjoy the fun!  

The Green Snowman Sweater-Vest

As the first day of December, I decided to ease into the tackiness of the season.  I had a Christmas party to attend, hosted by the college ministry at the Church I go to, so I accessorized with my light-up Christmas light necklace and my purple sequin Santa hat.  I wasn't going to be outdone at a Christmas shindig!  

This is a nice sweater due to the triple snowman action.  There is a snowman in the top right corner carrying presents to the Christmas Tree.  The second is smiling to the bluebird that is perched on it's branch arm.  The third is skiing happily.  Also, like any good tacky Christmas outfit, there are some Christmas presents that carry onto the back of the vest.  It was the first time I wore it, but it was super comfy, especially with the comfy shirt underneath.  

Overall, a good start to the 25 days of Christmas Sweaters!
