In Hallmark Channel’s new original movie, “Christmas at Dollywood”, starring Danica McKellar and Niall Matter, a New York event planner (McKellar) returns to Tennessee to organize the Christmas event at the iconic Dollywood theme park where she’s paired with the head of operations (Matter) who thinks he can handle the party just fine on his own.

With a theme park and holiday so extravagant, the fashion was pretty ‘professionally’ casual, but there were definitely some stylish pieces featured that I wanted to spotlight–including the green ruched bow accented dress that Danica wore for the promotional photos.

Elizabeth Hendstridge and Ryan Paevey star as Jessica and Nick in the new Hallmark Christmas romance, “Christmas at the Plaza”, about two strangers who work together over the holidays at the iconic Plaza Hotel in NYC. I could get into the sweet details of the movie, but you should probably catch a re-airing as it plays on the Hallmark Channel all season long.

For this post, let’s talk fashion!  I caught up with costume designer, Charl Boettger, to get the scoop on some of the sweaters, coats and accessories worn — including coats worn for the official key art!

Next weekend Hallmark Movies & Mysteries will premiere “Angel Falls: A Novel Holiday”, the sequel to 2017’s “Christmas in Angel Falls”. In this new story, Jen Lilley plays Hannah – a book editor who must work with her former rival, played by Carlo Marks, to help a potential writer find her way.

I can’t wait to watch the movie, so in the meantime, I thought I’d share some fashion moments I recognized from the released productions stills and the behind the scenes looks Jen gave us on her Instagram while filming.

It’s February and ABC aired a Christmas episode of their hit drama, “How to Get Away with Murder” but, I’ll never complain about celebrating that holiday early…or late? Either way, it was fun to see a little bit of the festive season again, even if the episode wasn’t as jolly as the cast of characters would’ve like.  In this Season 5 episode (titled: 5×13 “Where Are Your Parents?”), Annalise (Viola Davis) gathered everyone together for the holidays…drama ensued but, there was some cute fashion, and that’s what I’m focusing on for this post!

First things first, the episode opens with Michaela (Aja Naomi King) decking the halls; we see a close up of her putting these adorable buffalo check “Jingle” pillows on the couch. The exact style is the THRO 14×18 Metallic Jingle Plaid Pillow, which are still available on clearance at T.J. Maxx!

Nick Lachey took over co-hosting duties this week on Hallmark’s Home & Family–and he brought along his wife, Vanessa Lachey for a holiday cooking segment! Vanessa got into the Christmas mood in her black sweater adorned with several pixelated Santa Claus faces; she wore the Divided H&M Ugly Christmas Graphic Sweater (Sold Out).

Christmas Eve is tomorrow, and I’ll be spending the day with loved ones doing our traditional last minute activities before Santa Claus arrives! But, I was loving all of the sweaters on “LIVE with Kelly and Ryan” this week so much that I had to pop in and dish the scoop on those first.

On Monday, Anderson Cooper played co-host and, during one of the segments, he and Kelly teamed up for “Merry Money” against select audience members where they caught ping pong balls in their interactive sweaters. For the game, they wore the Tipsy Elves Beer Pong Ugly Christmas Sweater ($80-$83) and they’re available in both Women and Men’s sizes.

If you were a fan of the 2015 comedy “Daddy’s Home” starring ‎Will Ferrell‎ and Mark Wahlberg then I’m sure you’re as excited as I am to see the sequel that hit theaters nationwide last week!

“Daddy’s Home 2” takes place during the holiday season, so there’s this great scene where are dressed in a pair of ‘ugly Christmas sweaters’, and just like they did with “Office Christmas Party”, Tipsy Elves have created replicas of the sweaters for purchase through their website!

There aren’t many family-friendly Christmas movies hitting theaters this year, but that doesn’t mean your local cinema is totally lacking some yuletide options. If you are in the mood for some laughs (and you’re old enough to see it), you might want to check out “Office Christmas Party” starring Jennifer Aniston, Jason Bateman and SNL star Kate McKinnon.

In the film, which is centered around–well, an office Christmas party, McKinnon’s character Mary Winetoss gets into the holiday spirit by wearing an ‘ugly sweater’ featuring patterns for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, etc. and the sweater has been officially replicated for you to purchase – the Tipsy Elves Office Christmas Party™ Nondenominational Sweater.

This sweater is available at TipsyElves.com for $59 USD.

Stay merry!

For this morning’s “LIVE with Kelly” show, Kelly Ripa was joined by guest co-host Richard Curtis as they presented a Christmas fashion show where seven people were donned in their holiday best get-ups.

For the occasion, Kelly wore a grey lobster Christmas sweater–the Talbots “Santa Claws” Sweater ($60 at Talbots.com), to be exact with a green metallic J. Crew Collection Tile Sequin Pencil Skirt (sold out).

Have you made your way to your local cinema to check out the new holiday comedy film “The Night Before” starring Seth Rogen, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Anthony Mackie yet? If you’re not familiar with the film, it’s centered about three friends who have celebrated Christmas Eve together for the last decade but find that their tradition might be coming to an end as one of them is about to become a father and their lives are changing. So, what does this mean? One (possibly) last holiday together filled with debauchery and a lot of laughs.

In a flashback sequence we see the guys donned in matching Ugly Christmas Sweater Fleece Footed Pajamas with a Long Night Cap that you can purchase for $44.95 at PajamaCity.com.

I actually own one too, and I can honestly say it’s extremely cozy!
