It's the most wonderful time of the year! I don't know about you guys, but I, for one, am a Christmas FREAK. I love everything about the holidays: kitschy decor, twinkling lights, Christmas cookies, holiday candles, cheesy Hallmark movies. You name the Christmas cliché, I'm obsessed with it.
Something I'm also obsessed with is the beautiful wonderland that is Target. Ever since I was a wee little Olivia, my mom would take me on special Target trips "just to see what they have," and at the ripe old age of 29, I can proudly say I have followed in my mother's Target-obsessed footsteps. Literally, all my home decor is from Target. Most of my wardrobe is from Target, too.
So naturally, when the holidays come around, I'm frequenting my local Target once a week or so. Sure, 85% of the time I make some excuse like, "Well, I need to pick up gluten-free noodles and some chicken broth, and I don't want to drive ALL the way to the grocery store that's 2 miles from my home — I'll just go to the Target right around the corner since it's closer." But don't we all do that? No? Just me?
Whatever, OK, I know I have a Target problem! And with Christmas right around the corner, you bet your bottom dollar I'm picking up some of the AMAZING ugly holiday sweaters being sold there this year. Scroll down to see some of the absolute gems Target is carrying, and be prepared to be the cutest ugly-sweater-rockin' person in your neighborhood this holiday season!
