A VERY MERRY VANDERPUMP CHRISTMAS

A quick look at our Christmas decorations!

OUR LARGEST AND MOST DECADENT TREE

This is the sight that greets you as you walk through the glass doors into our home during the holidays. I love creating a show-stopping tree that the family can gather around during Christmas and, luckily, our main living room has ceilings high enough to accommodate! I try not to go too girly with this one, as it's in the center of the house, and pepper in dark purples and metallics to offset the pinks!

OUR CHRISTMAS TABLE

I did our Christmas table slightly differently this year! I found some incredible Christmas Crackers (an English staple!) at Harrod's in a beautiful array of cream and gold with black ribbons so, instead of my usual pale pink tablescape, I opted for a slightly funkier mix of black, cream, taupe, metallics and rich red roses. To keep it elegant and feminine, I did use pale pink and gold plates, to soften the look up a bit. I loved this stunning crystal-embellished table and it was the perfect setting for our family lunch! After hours in the kitchen, it was such fun sitting down to this beautiful set up!

PRESENT DETAILS...

I spend weeks prior to Christmas finding the most gorgeous bows I can hunt down. A fabulous, thick, velvety bow looks incredible under your tree - plus, who wouldn't want to receive something that's so beautifully adorned? They wouldn't be complete without a puppy trying to sneak them open!

ROCOCO PINK & GREEN TREE

I love this tree as it is over-stuffed, decadent and dripping with femininity. I mixed pale gold and silver metallics with various shades of pink ornaments in velvet, feathers and different textures. Such an indulgent, beautiful tree!
