Why I love the look: This year, I am dreaming of a colourful Christmas. Blush and amber tones will inform a fresh tablescape of beautiful florals and bountiful food, and I'll craft a gingerbread house decorated with candy colours and edible flowers for a delicious visual centrepiece. To extend the look to my gifts, I've selected cheerful fabrics to use in place of wrapping paper, and I'll garnish every present with blossoms for a final decorative touch.

Why I love the look: Having just moved into a new place by the beach, I am going for a coastal Christmas tablescape. Think white linen, a sprinkle of beach ornaments and lush tropical greenery as a centrepiece. For a sense of fun, I'll be including a tiki cup with each place setting so I can serve tropical cocktails from mid-morning before a cold lunch with lots of fresh seafood.

Why I love the look: For me, this Christmas is all about relaxing. My Christmas styling is minimal and neutral this year. I am obsessed with candles at the moment, so I am styling my home with pillar candles, taper candles and Christmas scents. My goal is to create a festive feeling through scent and ambiance.

Why I love the look: This year, I'm decorating my new Grand Aspen Fir Christmas Tree with mismatched silver baubles, raffia stars and clusters of baby's breath. Inspiration for my table setting comes from the weddings featured on The Anti-Bride, a website I have lived on the past few months while planning my wedding. I love the pared-back and timeless combination of white linen and fresh florals, which will tie in with my tree and allow the festive spread and flowing cocktails to shine.
