I'll always be won over by traditional aesthetics during the holiday season, but Nate Berkus is convincing me to think a little differently this year. He recently took to Instagram to share some unconventional – but, frankly, brilliant – views on the biggest holiday decor themes for Christmas 2025, and, it seems, his expert eye is drawn to maximalism and metallics over classic colors.
Perhaps it stems from my unwavering loyalty to festive nostalgia, but I admire any designer who can put their own spin on Christmas decor ideas – and Nate Berkus' style is undeniably unique. In his latest Instagram video, he revealed that while he likes a 'polished and matching' look, he prefers organic textures, slick metallics, and earthy hues to a time-honored Christmas palette. And while I might be unfamiliar with this particular look, I'm suddenly desperate to try it out.
