🎄 How to Create the Perfect Ralph Lauren Christmas at Home
Share
There’s something undeniably timeless about a Ralph Lauren Christmas. It’s that signature blend of American luxury meets cozy countryside charm — think tartan plaids, roaring fireplaces, and candlelight flickering against polished wood and silver trays. The Ralph Lauren holiday look evokes an air of nostalgia and sophistication — a winter scene straight out of a classic novel.
This holiday season, let’s bring that same elegance and warmth into your home — one candle, ribbon, and scent at a time.
✨ What Is a Ralph Lauren Christmas?
A Ralph Lauren Christmas is more than just a decor theme — it’s a feeling. It’s the celebration of tradition, heritage, and timeless design. It draws inspiration from:
-
English countryside manors layered in velvet and wool.
-
Equestrian details like leather straps, plaid blankets, and polished brass.
-
A refined color palette of deep greens, rich reds, gold accents, and creamy neutrals.
-
A cozy atmosphere filled with candlelight, roaring fires, and the faint scent of pine and vanilla.
It’s classic, yet intimate. Elegant, yet inviting. It’s about slowing down to savor the season — something we value deeply at Hellen’s Boutique.
🕯️ 1. Start with the Scent of Sophistication
Fragrance sets the tone before decor even comes into play. To channel that Ralph Lauren warmth, choose scents that are nostalgic, cozy, and luxurious.
-
Warm Vanilla – A timeless scent that evokes home-baked cookies and soft cashmere throws. Perfect for your living room or bedroom.
-
Cozy Apple Cider – A sophisticated twist on holiday comfort. The crispness of apple with a hint of spice gives that “just came in from the cold” feeling.
-
Rose or Gardenia Flowers– Place this in your powder room or guest bedroom for a soft floral note that adds refinement to the atmosphere.
Light a few candles throughout the home to create a layered sensory experience — subtle, yet memorable.
🕯 Customize any of our candles with these fragrances, find the ones that speak to your version of comfort and elegance.
🍷 2. Set a Table Worthy of a Country Estate
For your holiday dinners, opt for classic elegance with a personal touch:
-
Mix fine china with rustic stoneware.
-
Use a classic plaid table cloth or table runner, and linen napkins tied with velvet ribbons.
-
Place white pillar candles in the centre to set a cozy and classy vibe
- Don't forget to add elegant red roses as centrepieces
Add a touch of green: a sprig of rosemary or cedar tucked into each napkin is the perfect final flourish.

🎁 3. Wrap Like Royalty
Ralph Lauren gift wrapping is all about luxury in the details:
-
Choose gold, navy, deep red and green wrapping paper.
-
Tie with velvet ribbons and finish with a wax seal or brass tag.

🕯️ 4. Create the Glow
Finally, light the room. But skip the overhead lights — Ralph Lauren would never.
Instead:
-
Scatter candles in groups of three at varying heights.
-
Mix sculptural and classic styles from our candle collection for dimension.
-
Let the golden flicker reflect off mirrors, glassware, and metallic accents.
This creates a soft, romantic glow that transforms any space into a warm and inviting holiday haven.
