“Love doesn’t need a holiday” may be more than 15 years old, but it is one of the absolute Christmas classics, providing great emotions and a festive mood as well as fashion inspiration! Amanda (played by Cameron Diaz) and Iris (played by Kate Winslet) decide to spend the Christmas season at each other’s houses on different continents. They quickly meet Graham (played by Jude Law) and Miles (played by Jack Black) and a stirring love story begins. We also fell in love with the main characters’ outfits while we were watching and we’re showing you our favourites!

Winter accessories

She comes from summery California and first has to get used to the winter temperatures in England. Amanda wears a thick beige coat with fur trimmings in the film. In addition, she combines a hat in Basque style, which is also cream-colored. The striped round scarf makes the 200s look perfect.

Tone-on-tone looks

Kate Winslet, who plays a columnist from England in the film, enchants with her playful but rather down-to-earth style. She combines a narrow scarf with the blazer – typical of the 2000s style.

Influencer and fashion designer Matilda Djerf is also combining narrow scarves with blazers this winter and shows how up-to-date the trend is. To freshen up the look of the 2000s, she wears an oversized jacket instead of a tight-fitting blazer. The scarf is available at Djerf Avenue, for example, for around 55 euros.
