“It’s tiiiime!” It’s what Mariah Carey declares every November 1st, when the Queen of Christmas officially defrosts herself and prepares to dominate the holiday airwaves. The singer’s takeover of the season has already begun. This month, she will kick off her “Merry Christmas One and All” tour, with performances through December. “I really do believe in the magic of the holidays,” Carey says. “It’s one of the reasons I go all out for the season the way that I do.
” Given the holidays are about to kick off into full swing, Vogue couldn’t resist asking Carey about her approach to dressing for the season’s parties and events. Her biggest tip? Play up the glitz. “My idea of holiday dressing has always consisted of glamorous styles that truly complement the season in a fun and festive way,” she says. “I love selecting looks that feel like their own celebratory moment.” She even has her sights set on rocking the lingerie pieces from the campaign as clothing.
