🎄🔥 HOLIDAY CHAOS SURVIVAL GUIDE: WHAT TO WEAR WHEN YOUR FAMILY TESTS YOUR PATIENCE

🎅 INTRO: HOLIDAYS ARE MAGICAL… UNTIL YOUR FAMILY ARRIVES

Here’s the thing about the holiday season:

The food is great.
The decorations are cute.
And the family?
Well… the family is a real test of emotional endurance.

Whether you're sitting through Thanksgiving conversations 🗽 or braving the great UK Christmas chaos 👑, the right outfit can make or break your sanity.

That's why we created the ekookaburra Holiday Chaos Survival Guide — with hoodies and mugs designed to help you stay warm, stylish, and mentally intact.

Let’s get you dressed for survival.

  • Thanksgiving dinners

  • Christmas lunches

  • Relatives who overshare, overscrutinise, or oversip
