The influencer elves have been hammering away at Santa’s workshop to prepare the latest holiday aesthetic du jour: “Tacky Christmas.”
Rather than being another tidy, narrowly defined, monochrome theme, Tacky Christmas is more of a “throw everything you’ve got at the yuletide” sort of vibe. Imagine a tree adorned with a mishmash of ornaments and strings of big-bulbed multicolored lights, finished with a healthy heaping of tinsel, and maybe lay down a train set that circles the base, too.
“It’s not any one specific aesthetic — it’s whatever appeals to you for whatever reason, whether that be nostalgia or just because you think it’s pretty and it makes you happy,” says cozy-content creator Samantha Ulrich-Herman, who is based in Portland, Oregon.
This might seem familiar. That’s because Tacky Christmas is basically just … how Christmas looked back when people might take a photo in front of their tree with a film camera rather than their cellphone, or when “ticktock” referred to the sound of the garland-wrapped grandfather clock instead of a social media app.
