One of the best parts of the holiday season is the opportunity to bring out your festive decor to transform your space into a cozy winter wonderland. This year, though, there’s a new winter decor trend on the rise, and it’s one I can certainly get behind: après-ski core.

This cozy, luxe design trend will make you question if you’re living in your home or a gorgeous lodge in Colorado, no skiing needed. Better yet, it can work for your living room, dining room, bedroom, and even patio. Think design touches like faux fur blankets and rugs, inviting wool textiles, elevated sequin and gemstone trimmings, warm lighting, and woodland accents.

This après-ski design trend doesn’t need to break the bank either. Adding small, nostalgic items can help you create your own personal ski resort. To channel this aesthetic without leaving your home, consider these nine après-ski decor pieces. They look like they’ve been plucked right out of a winter ski lodge, and better yet, unlike some holiday design trends, you can keep these pieces up all season long — and well into 2025.
