With Christmastime drawing near, even if your decorations have been up for the last few weeks, it is still the perfect time to add some finishing touches to your festive tree.

We're looking to Wicked star Michelle Yeoh for inspiration, as she recently shared a photograph of her Christmas tree on her Instagram page. The actress has opted for a classic, traditional look, featuring a lush green tree adorned with warm yellow lights and a base of red and gold ornaments. The twinkling lights beautifully enhance the metallic sheen of the ornaments, and the dense green branches create a natural, cozy winter atmosphere.

'Here on the celebrity style team, we've seen new interior design trends emerge this December, most significantly 'nearly-naked' trees with nothing but lights and pastel-pink twists on classic green. However, Michelle Yeoh's decorations remind us that some styles are timeless,' remarks Megan Slack, the Head of Celebrity News at H&G.

'While I love observing these trends, there's something sublime and eternally classic about Yeoh's arrangement. The color palette paired with the scented candles creates a quietly luxurious winter wonderland that will look just as good in her home next year. So, if you're thinking of investing in some Hollywood-inspired ornaments, you can rest easy knowing they'll be just as beautiful when you get them out of the box in 2026.'
