Jennifer Garner Rejects the Minimalist Aesthetic With a Nostalgic, Rainbow-Lit Christmas Tree That Is Redefining Holiday Maximalism – It’s Replicable from $5

Jennifer Garner.

Christmas is coming fast as ever, but it's not too late to put last-minute touches on your tree, and thankfully, Jennifer Garner has provided us with some festive guidance.

She revealed that she is team multi-color light after sharing a clip of her tree to her Instagram page, and we have to say, it's perfect for the nostalgic look that so many of us are going for this year. She paired her rainbow string lights with playful ornaments, which provide texture and a sense of whimsy to the tree.

To get the look, start with this set of mini rainbow string lights from Home Depot (they have amazing reviews), then get creative with ornaments. This chic and sweet snowman from McGee & Co and this cheery set of red baubles would both make fabulous additions.

'For years, we’ve seen a lean toward ultra-minimalist, monochromatic holiday decor, but Jennifer’s tree proves that there is an enduring power in nostalgia,' says Megan Slack, the head of Celebrity Style at Homes & Gardens. 'By swapping sterile white bulbs for a multi-colored glow, she’s tapping into a more personal, 'lived-in' luxury. It’s a reminder that the best festive spaces don’t just look beautiful; they evoke a sense of time-honored joy.'

Jennifer's tree is the ultimate maximalist move to embrace color so fearlessly, and it works because it feels intentional rather than cluttered. It’s a trend that invites us to stop worrying about perfection and start focusing on the warmth of the home, and there's still (just) enough time to follow her example.
