Christmas sweaters

On the eve of the New Year holidays, each of us would like to admit some fairy-tale magic into our lives. Even adults, who no longer believe in Santa Claus, Santa Claus and other New Year characters, feel the presence of something wonderful these days. Themed movies and music, home decoration and, of course, unusual outfits that come out of the cabinets only once a year, help create a New Year's mood.

The idea to dress up in funny sweaters with New Year and Christmas patterns came to us from American and Western cultures. It is there that there is a tradition for the whole family to wear similar clothing for holiday photos and feasts.

In today's article we will tell you more about this new wardrobe item for most of us. The classic sweater model assumes the presence of a high collar that fits the neck, but now sweaters without a collar - jumpers and pullovers are becoming increasingly popular. We will introduce you to the most interesting models of New Year's sweaters, popular patterns and patterns, and also give some tips on how and with what they are better to wear.

First, let's define what the sweater is. Usually, this word means a warm knitted pullover without buckles with long sleeves and a high collar. But in the New Year models of sweaters, the neck is mostly absent.

Both men and women wear such sweaters. Sweaters are made of wool, synthetic yarn or mixed in composition.

This garment has many varieties. They differ, including, and on drawing. Sweaters are striped, openwork, with braids and other patterns. Especially popular in recent times are sweaters with winter motifs.

Christmas trees, snowflakes and deer are traditional elements of Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian and Icelandic folk patterns. In our country, such sweaters are worn for a long time, but they really became fashionable only a few years ago. So, sweaters with Scandinavian and Icelandic ornaments - this is the first type of Christmas sweaters.

The second type is familiar to each of us in American films and serials of the 80s and 90s. If the picture took place on Christmas Eve, most likely a character flashed in it in a bright red sweater with Santa Claus, a snowman, reindeer sleigh and other attributes of the most beloved holiday.

Gradually, these sweaters began to appear in the wardrobe of Russian fashionistas. True, the most patriotic of them, nevertheless, choose models with pictures from our reality: Santa Claus, bullfinches on snowy mountain ash, characters from folk tales and Soviet cartoons, etc.

Finding a New Year's sweater in a clothing store is not so easy, especially if you do not want to be content with a knitted sweater with Scandinavian ornaments, but you want to buy something more spectacular. Here you will come to the aid of online stores and catalogs, where similar proposals exist much more.

New Year's sweater with deer is a real hit, which has already spawned a lot of jokes and anecdotes. Despite this, warm sweaters with elegant silhouettes and funny faces of deer are still in great demand.

The penguin, although it has nothing to do with the New Year and Christmas, often appears on New Year's sweaters. Most likely because this cute bird is strongly associated with snow and cold, without which it is impossible to imagine this magical time.

Bears, white and brown, also adorn the New Year's sweaters. All of us in childhood were crazy about fluffy teddy bears, and growing up we transfer our attachment to them on clothes with a “bearish” print. Sweaters with the image of cubs in knitted scarves and caps just can not touch.

Sweaters with bullfinches were popular among Soviet guys and girls. Today's fashion is largely inspired by the fashion of those years, and therefore these bright birds began to appear again on the clothes of modern youth.

Snowmen and snowmen invariably present on the sweaters from the New Year collections. Models with these characters are usually the most funny and funny, because they resemble children's drawings devoted to winter.

Sweaters with a pattern of snowflakes or one large snowflake as a print is a discreet version of the New Year's dress for those who do not like to draw attention to their appearance. The models with snowflakes look very gently and cute.

A dressed-up Christmas tree or a snow-covered forest often appear on New Year's jerseys. This is one of the most simple and spectacular patterns. A girl in such a sweater will inevitably cause others to have a festive mood and a feeling of approaching magic.

Santa Claus or Santa Claus are the main characters of the New Year and Christmas holidays, so they are portrayed on winter sweaters very, very often. Particularly relevant now are the models on which these heroes are exhibited in a comic light.

All kinds of sweets: gingerbread, striped candy, pretzels and cakes are also present on New Year's sweaters. Such "appetizing" models, as a rule, are chosen by young girls who love to flirt and tease others.

Christmas sweaters with inscriptions are no less popular than the models with drawings. The subject of the inscriptions is diverse: it can be greetings, phrases from New Year's films and songs, jokes, memes, quotes, etc.

The New Year's sweater is a very bright and interesting thing in itself, so it’s easy to choose the right accompaniment to it. Such a sweater will attract attention and become the main highlight of your image, therefore, the things in the set should be as simple and concise as possible (otherwise, the outfit runs the risk of becoming a fancy dress).

Jeans or narrowed plain trousers will be the perfect pair for a New Year's sweater. Long, free models will go well with leggings and leggings. If you decide to wear such a sweater with shorts or a short skirt, do not forget about tight tights - color or patterned models will look especially impressive.

To complement the image will help properly selected accessories. It's time to get fun and cute winter things that you could not find any use for: earrings in the form of Christmas toys, striped socks and leggings, headphones from pompons, a cap-cap, bright knitted mittens and scarves.
