3 Décor Looks for Christmas 2025

Think neutrals with heirloom sparkle, monochrome with serious chic, and just a cheeky pop of festive red. Whether you’re a minimalist, a bold stylist, or somewhere in between, there’s a look to deck your halls in your own way.

Neutrals | Exquisite Heirlooms and Adornment

If your style leans towards understated, laid back elegance: neutral Christmas decorations are the perfect pairing. Shades of ivory, champagne, oatmeal, natural textures, golds and whites set the tone for a calm, coastal and refined holiday home atmosphere.

Get the look

Your base layers: start with a classic green tree and plenty of leafy fillers. White or plain beige table linens, woven baskets and runners. Add metallic accents: Antique gold and clear crystal heirloom holiday ornaments elevate the look without overwhelming it. Showcase past and future heirlooms: Incorporate treasured family ornaments, crystal candleholders, or vintage figurines in your table setting and living room decor.Oversized statement décor pieces are on trend right now: think big bows and giant blooms in soft tones set in large vases and vessels or nestled in your tree and garlands.

Black & White: Sophisticated, Never Understated

You love a bit of drama and striking statements – modern black and white Christmas décor is bold and undeniably chic. Monochrome can still be festive when styled thoughtfully.

Get the look:

Your canvas is a classic forest green, with simple, elegant shapes, alternating between black and white décor. Little silver elements are a nice finishing touch without adding colour. Checks, stripes, or polka dots add a whimsical twist to holiday decorating ideas without straying from the palette.Add little details with silk ribbons tied into bows, around glasses, on your tree, in your floral arrangements.

A Touch of Festive Red

Red remains a classic for a reason, it instantly sparks waves of nostalgic joy at the prospect of holiday season. The key is to use red with restraint, weaving it in as an accent rather than overwhelming the space; keeping it on the deeper side of the colour spectrum with maroons and magentas.

Get the look:

Select one statement piece like a bold red wreath on the front door or a collection of smaller ornaments scattered throughout your space. Play with colour pairings: crimson, burgundy and deeper reds work well with gold accents. Festive florals: Poinsettias, amaryllis, or clusters of red berries add natural flair to your mantel piece or table settings.
