Deck Your Halls: A Holiday Style Guide

The Tablescape

What would the holidays be without a party? Whether it’s a seated dinner or cocktail function, this is the season to break out the special dinnerware and serving accoutrements. Plaids can be deftly incorporated, in the form of coordinating plates and mugs. Paired with etched crystal Champagne coupes, wine, and water glasses, it’s a polished tabletop foundation that allows for personal accents to come in, whether that’s rustic garlands of greenery with pinecones and berries, glass hurricanes, or candlestick holders. Small tabletop accessories, such as stamped pewter napkin rings and trays from artists in residence Naoimi and Tyler Glasses or intricately carved dog place card holders, make a big impact on the table. Don’t forget to dim the lighting and use candlelight, or even a few strings of twinkling fairy lights, to set the mood.

The Bar

Everyone stops by the bar, which is all the more reason it deserves its own décor for the holidays. Consider how to accentuate all the crystal and hardware that make up a bar arrangement, incorporating smaller greenery, festive and on-theme objects, and plaid textiles alongside and under the decanters, glasses, and bar tools.

The Entryway

Festive greenery is the foundation of any Ralph entryway. That means lush, full garlands of fir, pine, or spruce (real and fragrant, or very good replicas) outlining an arched doorway, nestled into discreet flower boxes below windows, or as long boughs that fill elegant planters in your entryway. Mixing different types of greens offers a sense of texture. They can be lit with warm white lights, and accented with pinecones and holly, or mixed with native greenery such as magnolia leaves, eucalyptus, or various cedars and cypress varieties, depending on the location. This season, cedar, pine, juniper, pinecones, red berries, rose hips, laurel branches, and a few antlers here and there provide a rustic touch. Incorporating the color red is also important, as it adds drama and can instantly change a floral arrangement or entryway.

The Mantel

Another opportunity for greenery, the mantel is the place to mix seasonal elements with objects that reflect the overall theme of the room. That could be polished and English-inspired, with porcelain vases, antique clocks, polished silver candelabras and pictures frames, and equestrian-themed oil paintings sitting with fir garlands; or beachy and coastal with glass hurricanes with beeswax candles, a sleek mirror, and cypress accents. The most memorable of Ralph’s mantels are the rustic ones, framing rough-hewn stone fireplaces with antlers, sleighbells, vintage skis, and freshly chopped wood logs to create the cozy feeling of Christmas in the country.

The Tree

Ralph’s holiday trees reflect the various worlds that he’s built over the years. They could be as simple as strung popcorn and ribbons, or more elaborate with glass ornaments, collected over time to reflect a well-traveled life. What connects them all is thoughtfulness, artistry, and a commitment to a theme. Most trees incorporate warm white lights and often there is a classic color palette of red and gold bulbs. This season, plaid shapes, ice-skating Polo Bears, cable-knit textured glass bulbs, and stylized silver ranch ornaments approach tree trimming with a wink.

The Textiles

Plaids and tartans are the secret sauce of any Ralph Lauren Christmas scene. They are always in the picture, whether it’s on a few well-placed throw pillows, or blankets or bedding, in the pattern of festive plaid dinnerware and table runners and napkins, or as trunks that hold game sets. The key is restraint: Choose the right pieces and make sure they complement one another without being too matchy, or overwhelming. Then mix them with textured neutral solids, like a cable-knit cashmere throw blanket, or well-placed Polo Bear pillow.
