When it comes to Christmas style, celebrities don’t hold back—especially when shoes are involved. From sky-high stilettos to cozy fur-lined boots, A-listers prove that festive fashion isn’t just about the tree. It’s also about the looks that surround it.
Victoria Beckham Balances Style and Holiday Spirit in 5-Inch Heels
In December 2013, we featured Victoria Beckham in a stunning pair of Casadei heels at the world premiere of The Class of ’92 in London.
As always, her shoe choice was on point. However, what probably proved that she is a true shoe lover was that the English businesswoman, fashion designer, model, and singer even wore 5-inch heels when it was not safe.
A few days later, Victoria posted this picture on Instagram of herself tottering on a stepladder in a pair of sky-high pumps.

While we can’t identify the heels she’s wearing in the photo, her pencil dress is, not surprisingly, from her fashion line. If you’ve got $1,795 to spend on a little black dress, all you need is a pair of pumps, and you can decorate your tree just like Victoria.
The fashion designer also posted some videos from the Christmas tree decoration event.

While Victoria Beckham kept things elegant and polished in her signature heels and fitted black dress, another fashion icon took a bolder, more whimsical approach to holiday decorating. Enter Rihanna—never one to do anything halfway—who turned heads on Instagram with a jaw-dropping Christmas setup that was anything but traditional.
Rihanna’s Luxurious Crystal Christmas Tree Stuns Fans on Instagram
In December 2014, Rihanna shared some snaps of her Christmas tree on Instagram, and boy, did it put everyone else’s trees to shame. Other celebrities like Victoria Beckham have shared pictures of their glamorous trees, but RiRi’s is perhaps the most luxurious.
Hers does not need high-heeled shoe ornaments or lights since it is already sparkling. It’s not your ordinary Christmas tree, but a black multi-tiered pyramid tree encrusted with crystals! You read that right!
Another highlight was the singer’s Christmas stocking, embroidered with her real first name, Robyn. This traditional detail rests at the bottom of her modern, edgy Christmas tree.

Rihanna also shared a photo of herself and her BFF, Melissa Forde, standing before the futuristic-looking tree. They showed off their matching furry coats, which the Barbadian singer labeled “Smurfette couture.”
She was hard to miss in this oversized jacket in bold blue and fake fur. The coat also features a huge collar, a zipper fastening at the front, and two pockets. The “Diamonds” songstress kept the rest of her look plain and simple in white to let the jacket stand out.
She paired it with a crop top, white jeans by Isabel Marant, and gray lace-up heels.
