In Summer, I was like, “Yes way, rosé!” All day, every day.
In Fall, I was slurping up anything pumpkin spice.
Now that it’s the Holiday season, I want to have a very basic Christmas.
Recent walks through Marshall’s and Michael’s have shown me that my basic bitch Christmas is very much possible.
Marshall’s knows basic
Michael’s knows basic and blush and bashful
Forget Green and Red
Green/red and blue/silver color combinations are Christmas classics. They are not basic.
A real live Christmas tree is also a classic. But it is not basic.
Here is a basic tip from a basic bitch: you need a white tree with rose gold accents. Sure, you might feel tempted to have a (Jamie) Fraser fir decked in family heirloom ornaments. That’s precious, but it ain’t basic. Take your tree to the next level.
This is my tree. We have purple, rose gold, gold and silver ornaments.
We call it the Liberace Tree. The Libera-tree. Be jelly, because it’s amazing. But also, get your own.
