Tree Styling Guide

As the centerpiece of your holiday décor, your Christmas tree inspires and informs the whole of your holiday aesthetic. Whether it’s a glamorous all-white affair or an artsy bohemian vibe, a holiday look that’s cohesive and complimentary is far more important than a “flawless” Christmas tree. Because when it comes to designing your personal holiday haven, it’s not about perfection – it’s about creating an effortlessly festive ambiance that brings you comfort and joy.

No matter which tree aesthetic you choose, the basics for designing your tree are always the same. For the foundation of your tree, choose a tree skirt that uses visual interest and contrast to create a sense of balance. A skirt with appealing texture or unexpected detail offers a subtle surprise when it peeks through your gifts! When it comes to ornaments, variety is the key to an eye-catching and attractive arrangement. For balance and visual texture, hang subtle baubles alongside more striking and unique ornaments. And to top it all off, choose a beautiful but understated star that compliments the effortless feel of your tree and your cohesive holiday aesthetic.



With its classically fresh and clean vibe, white is a modern but timeless choice for any Christmas tree. For your very own winter wonderland, start with a flocked Christmas tree. Add glittered pinecones for a dash of holiday glam and a velvety white tree skirt with all the softness of freshly fallen snow. All-white ornaments don’t have to be boring! Experiment with different finishes and textures like glittering snowflakes and opalescent baubles. Choose a matching white star for the perfect final touch!

For a rustic but sophisticated tree, experiment with natural elements and understated details. Stick to a neutral color palette and experiment with wood-beaded garland, natural pinecones and ornaments made of organic materials. Grounding browns and creams make for a warm and cozy vibe, while fresh white accents lend a dash of modern brightness. For touchable softness, add a silky ribbon in black or brown.

A muted, neutral color palette combined with natural elements results in a dreamy bohemian -style Christmas tree. Choose eclectic, textured ornaments in calming creams, browns and earth tones to achieve a warm look that’s rooted in nature. For a grounded and earthy foundation, choose a chunky knit tree skirt or a woven tree collar made of natural cotton. Experiment with pampas grass for a soft and downy finishing touch.

For a tree that emanates class and elegance, opt for a glitzy black color scheme. To play up the refinement and sophistication of this dramatic color choice, start with a black tree skirt for a statement-making foundation. Pair with modern white details for contrast and gold accents for a touch of luxury. For visual balance, finish this opulent look with a dark and dramatic star tree topper.
