Renowned supermodel Cindy Crawford has invited fans into her opulent California residence this holiday season, showcasing her extravagant festive decor.
At 59, with an impressive net worth of approximately $225 million, Crawford shared a captivating trio of images featuring the Christmas trees adorning the luxurious home she shares with her husband, Rande Gerber, who is 63.
Adding to the holiday magic, vibrant garlands embellished with bows and dazzling ornaments adorned the banisters and framed the doorways.
Crawford herself appeared in all three photos, casually posing on the staircase and throughout her elegantly adorned abode, offering a glimpse of her personal style amidst the festive backdrop.
She wore a comfortable ensemble of jeans paired with a warm red sweater, complemented by minimal makeup.
Despite the sorrowful announcement in May about the passing of her beloved dog, Widget, Crawford finds plenty to be grateful for during this festive period.
Back in January after the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles, she told her followers on Instagram that she’s ‘never been more grateful to come back home.

‘I’m so lucky that I have a house to come home to,’ she said of her Malibu abode, adding: ‘So many others don’t and my heart aches for them.’
Crawford, who shares son Presley and daughter Kaia with Gerber, previously shared how she typically spends the holidays with her family.
‘We usually end up going away, ever since the kids were little and it was during school holiday,’ Crawford told People during last year’s holiday season. But before they leave on vacation, ‘we always put up the tree and do a little decorating,’ she insisted.
Planning the holiday festivities can be tricky now that her kids are older and have flown the nest – even the meals must be consciously prepared due to their ever-changing tastes.
‘It changes over the years because all of a sudden someone’s gluten-free or whatever,’ Crawford explained, adding that get-togethers don’t always have to be on December 25.
‘I think the older I get, the less — I just realize it’s about being together without the stress,’ she continued.
‘So, if you end up celebrating your family Christmas on the 26th, that’s okay. I try not to get hung up on it has to be a certain way because every year is different than the last year.
‘Fortunately, my kids both usually want to be with us a lot,’ she told People at the time. ‘But also they have partners or whatever, so sometimes you don’t get the day. Then we will just say, “Okay, so we’ll do Christmas three days later, or two days before.” Again, I don’t get hung up on that it has to be on the 25th.’

Do lavish holiday displays overshadow the true meaning of Christmas?

Crawford may have fun with the decorations, but for her Christmas is more about togetherness than buying lavish gifts for her family.
Even though she is wealthy and has the means, she has said that she takes a more thoughtful, more experience-based, and relationship-focused approach to gifting during the holiday season, especially with her sisters, Chris and Danielle.
During an appearance on the Kelly Corrigan Wonders: About Your Mother podcast last year, Crawford shared: ‘I started modeling in Chicago, and in Chicago, it’s a small pond, so I was the big fish pretty quickly there. And I was making more money than my parents made, more money than they could ever have dreamed of.’
Crawford fears that by being too generous with her sisters, she could actually ’emasculate their husbands.’
‘If I’m giving my sister a nicer ring than her husband gives them or something like that, it just becomes this weird thing,’ Crawford explained.
‘I was more about giving experiences and then helping them if they need a down payment on a house or something like that. My sisters have been awesome because they always paid it back. But navigating being in that financial position where you could do a lot is tricky.’
