The holiday season is a magical time for everyone, but celebrities seem to take the celebrations to another level.

Warm Pajamas

One of the gifts that seems to always make it on celebrities’ wish lists is a pair of comfortable and warm pajamas. Stars such as Taylor Swift, Sarah Hyland, and Miley Cyrus posted photos of themselves on their Instagram accounts of their flannel and footed pajamas that they received as Christmas gifts. Neil Patrick Harris even shared an image of his young son wearing a pair of pajamas and matching hat that turned the little guy into a Santa Claus replica. So if your goal is to celebrate like a celeb this year, be sure to shop for fuzzy pajamas.

Show off Your Kids (or Pets)

Celebrities love posting photos of their beloved family members on social media. Christmas brings this out in full force, with images popping up of babies, cats, and dogs dressed in their holiday finest. Last year, Mariah Carey shared a photo of her twins, along with ex Nick Cannon dressed up like Santa Claus. Paris Hilton posted a pic of herself cuddling with a kitten, while seated next to a Christmas tree. When you are deciding what photos to share with your followers, be sure at least one or more includes pictures of your babies, nieces, nephews, and furry friends.

Design a Killer Christmas Card

Every year, fans of the Kardashian clan wait eagerly for a glimpse of the annual holiday photo of the family. Josh Duhamel and wife Fergie showed off their style with a festive card, featuring him shirtless and her in a traditional holiday sweater. Tom Daley shared a photo of himself holding mistletoe and not wearing much else, generating the interest of plenty of his fans around the globe. Even Justin Bieber got in on the Christmas card fun by posing behind a tree and an owl, wearing the traditional red stocking cap.

Be Sure to Wear an Ugly Sweater

Celebs have jumped on the bandwagon of the latest trend in holiday attire: ugly sweaters. Some of the A-listers are hosting their own ugly sweater parties for their friends and family members, while others just wear the sweaters to take selfies and share them online. Kesha showed off her newest gift, a cat sweater, beneath her huge grin on Instagram. If you’d rather not don an itchy, uncomfortable sweater, you can also copy Joe Jonas by putting on a cowboy hat and wear a giant wreath around your neck.

Deck Your Halls

Another way that celebs love to show off their holiday spirit is by decorating their homes, inside and out. Beyonce posted a photo of her daughter, Blue, admiring their elegant and expansive Christmas tree. Kim Kardashian also shared an image of the Christmas tree that decorated the family’s home, which was a huge tree that nearly scraped the ceiling.
