Unleash your inner party queen this Christmas
The noughties disco Christmas trend has returned with full force, bringing a blast of nostalgia and unapologetic glamour to our festive celebrations. Ditch the traditional red and green for high-glam metallics reminiscent of a time when glitter ruled the scene. If you loved Paris Hilton in a Santa hat and can't get enough of Mariah Carey's classics, this trend is perfect for you.
What defines a noughties disco Christmas?
A noughties disco Christmas is a vibrant celebration of early 2000s aesthetics infused with a disco vibe. Imagine glitzy decorations featuring hot pink baubles, silver tinsel curtains, and party-girl energy. This style is not just about the décor; it's a whole atmosphere. It merges the magic of films like Love Actually with the catchy pop vibes of that era. It's cheerful and over-the-top—a theme that celebrates joy and whimsy.
Revamping your Christmas tree for maximum sparkle
This year, swap out your traditional evergreen tree for metallic or glittering alternatives. Think white or silver trees adorned with:
- Mini disco balls
- Tinsel in vibrant hues like hot pink and lilac
- Feather boas or metallic fringe
- A glittery star or crown on top
- Neon or fairy lights
Transform your home into a glittery wonderland
Your home décor should scream festive fun. From tinsel curtains to foil balloons emblazoned with messages like "SLAY" or "XMAS", the more shimmer, the better. Incorporating mirrored surfaces can also amplify the sparkle in your space as candlelight reflects off them. Go beyond the basics and consider:
- Pink feather wreaths
- Sequin table runners
- Party confetti strewn about for that celebratory feel
Curate the ultimate noughties party playlist
What's a disco Christmas without a fitting soundtrack? Your playlist should include iconic tunes that defined the era. Here are some recommendations:
- Destiny’s Child – "8 Days of Christmas"
- Britney Spears – "My Only Wish (This Year)"
- Anything from Mariah Carey
- Kylie Minogue and Christina Aguilera's pop gems
- Add some disco classics, too: think Donna Summer and the Bee Gees
Channeling that glam-girl fashion style
Embrace the spirit of the 2000s with your Christmas fashion this year. Opt for:
- Sparkly mini dresses with faux fur edges
- Platform heels or fluffy slippers for comfort
- Glitter eye shadow and glossy lips
- Rhinestone hair accessories
- Pajamas adorned in sequins for casual festive mornings
Noughties-inspired gifts that keep the glam alive
Wrapping your presents can align with the theme as well. Try metallic wrapping paper and holographic tags to wow recipients. Here are some fun gifting ideas that fit the vibe:
- Glitter makeup palettes
- Customised playlists, perhaps on a CD for that throwback feel
- Novelty accessories reminiscent of the noughties, like flip phones
