It’s time to free the holiday nipple
BY STACEY LEASCA
Because we live in the internet age, someone decided to level up the traditional ugly Christmas sweater by cutting a hole in it and letting just a single boob hang out. Seriously, nobody is making this up. It’s a real trend with tons of mentions on Instagram. And today we’re bringing it to you — just in case your holiday season wasn’t starting off right.
Here’s how it works: A person looking to partake in the trend finds an ugly sweater, cuts a hole into the chest area and pulls a boob through. They then cover the nipple with a red pasty (to make it look like Rudolph’s nose) and slap on a pair of googly eyes for good measure.
Though the first social media appearance of a reindeer boob appeared in 2014 (see the historic photo below), the trend has taken off this year. In fact, it’s become so popular that shops on DIY site Etsy have even started selling pre-cut sweaters for those who are too lazy to create their own.
Oh, and this trend isn’t just for the ladies. That’s right, men are getting in on the free the holiday nipple action too. Don’t believe us? Keep scrolling to check out a few of the best and most unique reindeer boobs on social media.
