PHOTOS: Twitter Shares Upside Down Christmas Trees

More and more people have been noticing a strange trend this holiday season: upside down Christmas trees.


Whether it's malls, hotels, or even online retailers, businesses are embracing the quirky take on a traditional display.

If you haven't seen an upside down tree yet, then take a look at some of these photos that Twitter users have shared.

Here's a beautifully-decorated one that was spotted at the Westfield San Francisco Centre mall:

Here's another from what looks like another mall, complete with upside down presents and miniature train set:

And another by German fashion designer and creative director for Chanel and Fendi, Karl Lagerfeld, for Claridge's, a London hotel:

"We believe this magical take on his childhood memories captures the spirit of the season perfectly and adds a sense of fun and glamour to our lobby," Claridge's general manager Paul Jackson told The Caterer.

Twitter wasn't quite so impressed:

NBC7 correspondent Danielle Radin shared a video with shots of a massive upside down tree at the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego, asking: "This #Christmas tree at the Hotel Del Coronado is upside down! Some find it artistic while others say it's disrespectful. What do you think?"

While not everyone felt like the upside down tree was all that impressive, most didn't seem to think the tree was "disrespectful":

In fact, they weren't even sure who would find an upside down tree disrespectful:

Some would even say the tree is kind of practical:

But that practicality will cost you a pretty penny.

Target is selling their own version of the upside down Christmas tree, which you can purchase online for a hefty $989.21.

And that's just while it's on sale:

This new trend seems to have disaster written all over it when people attempt to recreate it at home. But hey, at least it looks kind of cool when done well.

Please SHARE this with your friends and family.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
