A Thorough and Honest Review
The holidays are a time for togetherness, love, and family. And ostentatious displays of wealth, it seems. For the Kardashians and Jenners, the power moves begin long before presents are opened, when they decorate their sprawling estates for the season. But not all decor is created equal. While the family’s resources can create some truly stunning and artistic displays, they can also fund…interesting installations. So who won the battle for this year’s most festive?
Read on to find out, as we thoroughly dissect and rank all their Christmas trees.
Scariest: Kim Kardashian
As we reported earlier, the recently divorced Skims founder had a dozen (live? TBD) pine trees transplanted to just outside the bathroom in her museum-like home. Somehow this makes us feel…lonely? They are a simulacrum of Christmas trees, neither a decoration for the neighbors like typical outdoor lights nor a place to put presents as an indoor tree would be. They’re just…sitting out there. Staring. Waiting. Watching.
Totally Fine: Khloé Kardashian
She hasn’t fully revealed how she’s decorating her house, but in an Instagram story you can see here, she has a big white tree in her dining room. We’d prefer some ornaments to complete the look, but this is perfectly acceptable.
Bordering on (Goth) Genius: Kourtney Kardashian Barker
#Kravis went blood red with their many indoor trees. At first glance, this is just another #aesthetic decoration meant more for Instagram than for the delight of children, but now that we think about it…the pair have reallllly leaned into their Mall Goth TradCath thing, and this seems like a perfect way to incorporate all those elements. They’re too edgy for traditional decor but too devout to skip the holiday, so they found a decoration that works for them. And it looks they have a standard green tree too—the perfect prop for posing with Santa in negligee. Approved.
Best: Kylie Jenner
She’s rich so she bought a big tree to put in her big house. She hired people to hang it with lights and sparkly, traditional ornaments. The kids seem to enjoy looking at it. What more could we want? Nothing. Great job, Kylie.
Not Pictured: Kendall Jenner
Unlike the other Kardashians, we got nothing outta Kenny. The most private of the girls (Rob wins for being actually the most private), the model chose not to post her holiday decorations, if indeed she has any. Respect.
