Hard to believe I know, but this was actually my first ugly sweater party - whats the deal? THis year I was not missing out, especially when it was only two blocks away. Earlier in the day my friend Eric and I were trying to find some ugly sweaters, but with no avail, all of the upper west side had been picking over the thrift and goodwill stores and there was nothing left, so where do you go, Old Navy!
So our attire wasn't ugly, but it still had the christmasy cheer in the air. Eric and arrived separtely as we planned not to "know" each other had the same outfit! Lo and behold, two other guys had the exact same t'shirts, PTL Old Navy as Rustin would say. There was plenty'o'ulgyness to go around. One friend found a used kleenex in his hand pocket of his cardigan that he picked up from Goodwill. The dance party was alot of fun, the "single ladies" got a shout out from Beyonce, and we all loved the repression being expelled as they danced. We even had a professional photo booth for classic pics to be taken.
And of course, there was the infamous mistle toe which I won't lie, I made good use of it! If you haven' had the ugly sweater party experience, get on it and get to one or organize one!
