With the holiday season in full swing, there's no better time to celebrate all that is gloriously festive. Folks are breaking out their best holiday lighting, awkward and amazing jumpers are doing the rounds on social media, and everybody has to admit they enjoy the smell of vanilla and cinnamon, even if it's just a little bit.

Of course, companies would be foolish not to jump on the bandwagon of a season that has become primarily concerned with buying stuff for other people. Top-level brands like Coca-Cola have worked hard to align themselves with the merry season, and each year we see a plethora of companies adjust their branding to include a little bit of holiday magic.

Google has long been famous for its elaborate and charming Google Doodles, and usually comes up with over-the-top amazing versions of their logo for the holidays. But as other giants like UPS prove, you really don't need much to add a little jolliness to your brand.

Here's a list of 15 of our favorite brands who have at some point adjusted their logo for the festivities. The designs range from understated simplicity to extravagant flair.
