The Ugly Christmas....Sweater?

I know, I know, the ugly Christmas sweater is not a thing here in Australia....it's waaayyyy too hot for one thing (though my mother does remember it snowing on Christmas day when she was little!).

But did you ever wish you could get in on the action? Compete with friends to find the ugliest sweater? Go to an ugly sweater party and see how creative people can get? 

I know I have! Ugly Christmas sweaters have become a fun way to celebrate anti-fashion. 

So what is Australia's answer to this? Well, in 2015 the Cancer Council released its first Ugly Xmas Rashie!!! Genius! How genius you ask? The limited edition kangaroo design sold out within 48 hours. 48. Hours. 

Now a new design is released every year based on Australian animals and for 2019 it's a Lorikeet rashie.

So get in on the Ugly Christmas action, protect your skin and donate to a good cause. Get your rashie here
