Founder's Faves: Holiday Red Edition

Hey hey! It's Ann here and oh my word, I'm fired up about the holidays. Today I'm sharing Part 2 of our Founder’s Faves: Holiday Red Edition.

If green is the quiet luxury of the holiday season, red is the unapologetic showstopper. Think bold, cheerful, spirited, and instantly festive. It’s the color of gatherings, joy, generosity, and that unmistakable holiday magic that seems to hum in the air this time of year.

From velvet textures to glossy accents, sculptural serve ware, and fashion moments that demand attention, this collection is all about embracing the season with confidence and a little playful glamour.

Red is a mood and this edit is here to bring every ounce of holiday joy straight into your home. Let’s dive in.

The Holiday Red Edition: Décor That Brings the Cheer

Red is one of the most iconic holiday colors for a reason. It instantly livens up a space, making everything feel more joyful and intentional. Whether you're decorating a single vignette or giving your whole home a seasonal refresh, these pieces add depth and character in all the right ways.

Some of my favorite seasonal touches include a Merry Christmas banner that sets a playful, nostalgic tone, a glossy sculptural red tree that feels modern and fun, and peppermint-striped textiles that bring that classic candy-cane spirit into the kitchen or powder room. And of course, red coffee-table books like "Extraordinary Records" add graphic impact and visual depth to your styling.

Pro Tip:

Choose one red “anchor” piece for each vignette a candle cluster, a bold book, or a patterned textile and let the smaller accents support it. This keeps your holiday styling elevated, cohesive, and joyfully curated.

Wallpaper, Warm Glow & Holiday Hosting

If you really want to lean into the magic of holiday red, a bold patterned wallpaper is the perfect way to do it. This vibrant red print brings energy, warmth, and a touch of modern whimsy to any room. If you use it on a feature wall, inside a built-in, or even framed as art. It’s a statement piece that instantly elevates your holiday styling without feeling overly themed.

Pair it with rich red taper candles for height and ambiance, a peppermint-inspired pillow for a playful nod to nostalgia, and ruby-toned coupe glasses that add chic retro flair to your holiday hosting. Together, these elements create a layered holiday look that feels polished, joyful, and thoughtfully curated. The kind of room that makes guests feel the season the moment they walk in.

Not Just for Your Home, Wear Red Too

Red isn’t just a holiday color it’s a whole mood. This edit wouldn’t be complete without a few fashion selects to help you step into the season with confidence, personality, and that unmistakable festive flair.

I'm talking:

• Sparkling red statement earrings that add instant glamour

• The perfect festive red lip, bold, effortless, and always a good idea and yes, one of my favorites ;-)

• Bow-front red heels that feel feminine, sculptural, and holiday-party ready

• A plush red jacket that turns your everyday look into a seasonal statement

• Retro-inspired red sunglasses for the bold-at-heart

• A glossy red handbag that adds chic polish to any outfit

Style Tip:

Let one red accessory be the hero of your outfit. Pair it with neutrals or monochrome tones so the red can shine the way holiday red was meant to.
