If you're looking for more modern and understated decorating ideas for this festive season, a low-maintenance, no-frills minimalist scheme might just be what you need. In my opinion, no one does it better than socialite Khloe Kardashian. The reality mogul truly adores minimalist Christmas decor ideas – they are always simple, refined, and, most importantly, easy to replicate.
Kardashian's Christmas tree and mantel are free from ornaments, tinsel, and even a tree topper. Its only adornment is twinkling warm white LED lights. Though it is unconventional, this undressed 'nearly-naked' aesthetic is masterful in its simplicity. It embraces an interior design trend that will be just as in style in 100 years – and can be used all winter long to add subtle festive cheer.

'A minimalist approach at Christmas time is a great way to focus on quality over quantity and be more thoughtful about the way you decorate for the festive season' says Dayna Isom Johnson, an Etsy’s Trend Expert.
Embracing this 'less is more' aesthetic really comes down to a few sophisticated elements; gorgeous Christmas tree ideas, wonderful sparkling lighting, and a full Christmas garland.
There is no need to go overboard with festive decorations, for a truly minimalist look, prioritize a few select, quality pieces – the finished look can still be show-stopping and impactful.
