"Color has no gender", you are so right, Philip! Since the children moved out of the house, I don't decorate as much anymore. It's too much work to clean up after Christmas by myself. That's why I love it when I see Stephanie and Philip unleash their creative spirit.
Pink as a female gender colour came about in the 1940's. So a very new trend. Red and it's derivatives [pink] was actually associated with males and war, during the 15,17,18 century.
@@sindysimms4001 I still do but not as much and they also have to be easy to put away. For example, instead of a huge Christmas tree, I just use pre-decorated miniature table trees.
@@roseb7525 = Awesome. I think our society puts too much emphasizes on what they deem normal. Pink for Girls, blue for boys. Baah, Humbug I say. Like Philip states colour has no gender. How many men do you know that look stunning in a pink shirt. Look at Stephanie's uncle, he wear loads of fantastic colours. Decor isn't any different. I love colour myself having been a student of fashion ect. I certainly received training in seeing, reading and making colour. I love dying silks, cotton, wools and linens. They are fab fabrics to dye.
Philip is the perfect man for you, Stephanie and vice versa. What he said about pink is so generous and knowledgeable. A man who adores squirrels and hedgehogs is a very special man. He truly deserves a real puppy.
You two were made for each other I swear! You are such a sweet couple and I love the gentle teasing that goes back and forth between you. Your tree and bedroom look so cozy and lovely. I think the main reason we don't have trees inside and lit up year round is that then it wouldn't feel so special.
I'm convinced that Phillip isn't from this century. I think he's been around for many, many centuries bringing joy and style to the masses. Now what magic does he use to stay so young?
Honestly, you and Philip melt my cynical of love heart. I rarely come across people that have that kind of love that just makes sense. Both of you have incredible taste, you are well read, appreciate beauty and those that surround you, and look at life with such energy and whimsy you bring joy and smiles wherever you go. You two were joined long ago in the stars, meant to share your light entwined to bring warmth and hope the world over. Thank you for sharing your lovely Advent with all of us. Sincerely, Millie
Who needs sugar when there’s you two. 🍫🍭 You’re so sweet together and this was such a nice little episode. Thank you for sharing giving us some fun ideas.
I put up my pink tree weeks ago, then I put up my Turkey feather antique tree, then my Christmas family tree! All because you two were having fun. It just us two and not quite the same but I will try harder. I'll go and get some pink toile tomorrow! Merry Christmas all balancers I am wishing you the best!
Thank you so much for all the joy! 🎄💝🎄 Even without the decorations, it’s a beautiful tree! 🤩 I’m glad you could find a way to relax and enjoy together, while keeping on track with your vlogs. Well done! 👌
Every time I think you two couldn't possibly be any more adorable you prove me wrong haha! So sweet to see you both celebrating Christmas together. Inspiring me to bring more traditions into the days leading up to Christmas.
Yum, yum A new Advent Tradition ❤️🎄❤️. Hot Chocolate with coconut milk and rum, yea Stephanie & Philip, what a delicious evening! Peace and Love to everyone this evening💕🎄💕.
My heart is warmer than that hot chocolate! To see you and Phillip making time for each other is lovely. As for that stunning tree! Pink is my favorite color and with the frosted tree the whole thing looks like a candy cane confection! Glorious! I also love that you both are so open and accepting…when Phillip made the comment about color not having a gender…you guys are so well suited and make a lovely couple.
Loved this! The season has been so crazy that in never got beyond the third day of advent. Now it’s New Year’s Eve and I am enjoying binging Advent a La La Lande! Inspiration for Christmas 2023 and for enjoying life to the fullest every day of the year!
A real de jouy explosion and its beautiful! Love the tree and who could not love the textiles. Its going to be a lovely space to get away to and be alone... how lovely.
Beautiful. The tree too. You two are the cats meow together. Phillip is a wise man....he aims to please Stephanie. Life is rich with love, joy, traditions, respect and thankfulness.
For my little bedroom tree I used necklaces and all the odd earrings it looks beautiful and very suitable for the bedroom my husband agrees I normally do a deep pink maroon tree as that is the colours of the room
If there's such a thing as a Romantic Christmas tree, the "Tree de Jouy" is definitely it! Beautiful, I love it... I also have a flocked tree, the type that just keeps giving and giving and giving... snow built up in the hallway, down the stairs into the dinning room... the family room and outside the front and back doors, no amount of "hoovering" worked! With "fresh" snow every day, in 2018 I thought it was a health hazard for my new Cocker pup, so it hasn't been up since... now she would just eat everything she could reach! 😁🦘
Stephanie & Philip How sweet are you two decorating your tree together which I must say looks absolutely beautiful. The hot chocolate looked yummy Love to both of you Andrew 💐💜xx
NEVER enough books! American film director John Waters said that if you ever go home with anyone and they don't have books ... leave immediately! The tree is beautiful and so are the two of you! Sending Christmas love from Chicago USA.
I have trees all year around, Christmas must have at least four different breeds of trees, ficus for the rest. But they're dress to fix the room🤭 Plus my lovelies my Pink and Cream tree is my favorite to Deck Out. Don't you just 💕 Love decking out the chateau just like we like to deck out our house. Merry Advent☃️🎄🎀
Could not be happier that you took time out from all the madness. You deserve uninterrupted time together in the beautiful sanctuary you have created. On a regular basis. Blessings to you both.
There are many times during the year a tree is appropriate. We have a vintage silver tinsel tree. We use it in February with red, pink and silver ornaments for St. Valentine's day. In March, it is decorated in green for St. Patrick's day. In July it is covered in Red, white and blue for July 4th. We also have a tall thin tree that is covered in brown, gold and pine cones for fall. Then the Christmas tree goes up.
Lovely video Steph and Philip, thank you. I love seeing the love between you, very touching. Also whoever is doing the arty B-roll close ups and music choices, it's just lovely
I’m so happy to see you have decorated your bedroom with Toile. I have accents in my room, too. I have several pieces of the Hunt scene. They are a deep shade of red. Love it!
I love the tree it is very beautiful. I love watching your videos so much. I love you all so very much. Great content. Thanks again for sharing your videos. Keep up the great work.
Gotta say I love it all. Color has no gender. Well said. The only thing missing are pink candles in you wall sconces. Leave it to me to suggest more pink. I had a flocked tree before. It was beautiful but I couldn't handle the mess and I was worried for my 3 cats and 2 dogs at the time. They seemed fine with it but I still worried. Dear souls had long lives and we have 1 cat and 1 dog now. Both were rescues like the rest and yep they are both spoiled.
Beautiful tree and beautiful couple!💓Remembering to take the time to do things together is so important, especially if you work and live together.👌This was the perfect thing to watch - I just made hot chocolate and yesterday we got lots of snow where I live in Norway. Super cosy!🥰 It’s probably not very likely, but here’s to wishing Philip gets an actual puppy/adopted dog for Christmas!🤞🏻🐶🎁😅
My brother and sister-in-law have their tree up for several extra months, and they have fall decorations that go on it and Valentine's decorations that go on it. Personally, though, I am of the opinion that limiting Christmas things to advent and the twelve days of Christmas makes them more special, and therefore more noticed and more magical. As a person with wavy hair who used to try to straighten it, I say enjoy what you've got. It's beautiful in its natural state, and a major expense of your time to try and change. However, as long as you're going to spend your days in curlers, you should tie some of your beautiful scarves up over them in a sort of turban style like they did in the '50s. Then you'll get to enjoy looking at your scarves instead of your curlers.
Philip my dad was like John Wayne very cowboy and his favorite shirt was pink and he used to say real men where pink! Lol love all the decorations still have to do my place. Merry Christmas to love from Wyoming USA
My son loves to wear pink shirts. His lil girl loves him to wear pink. And says Pink is not just for girls! Then turns to her daddy and asks him “Right Daddy?” 😅
"Color has no gender", you are so right, Philip! Since the children moved out of the house, I don't decorate as much anymore. It's too much work to clean up after Christmas by myself. That's why I love it when I see Stephanie and Philip unleash their creative spirit.

Stephanie , there is no such thing as a “book problem” unless it’s that you don’t have enough. 😁
Hear, hear!!!
I think there is space for more books indeed
It’s more of a ‘bookcase problem’ because there are definitely not enough. 😊
More of a bookcase/ library problem... You can not have too many books!
Exactly… I know … I truly have a book problem.
You two were made for each other I swear! You are such a sweet couple and I love the gentle teasing that goes back and forth between you. Your tree and bedroom look so cozy and lovely. I think the main reason we don't have trees inside and lit up year round is that then it wouldn't feel so special.

I enjoyed this different type of vlog - almost intimate. Just Stephanie, Philip, me and a few thousand other fans 😂! Happy Advent everyone ❤
I’m happy to see you having a relaxing evening lol. Decorate tree, change bedding, vacuum, and film. Please take care of yourself. ❤
I loved this episode of Advent, a quick, cosy break away during a busy festive season in a chateau. The dream!
It would be so cool if you guys turn one of the rooms into a full fledge library with floor to ceiling bookshelves and a fancy ladder!!!
Oh yes! That is a truly marvelous idea!! Please do that!

This is the most beautiful tree at LaLande this year. The colors go together so well on tree and the the room.
110% agree... It looks so very luxurious
It’s so sweet that Philip calls you darling. The tree is beautiful
I was thinking the same thing
Was just thinking the same! He is such a sweet lovely man!
I so much admire the way you two do life! 💞 You are so in sync! ☕☕ A delightful couple! Hugs from Australia 🇦🇺
I cannot stop singing praises to Philip. “Color has no gender”- exactly! I wish more people thought the way you do 💜
Who needs sugar when there’s you two. 🍫🍭 You’re so sweet together and this was such a nice little episode. Thank you for sharing giving us some fun ideas.
I never thought I'd go for a pink tree but I LOVE it!! It's absolutely beautiful! Looked like a really cozy start to another day of advent.
Forgot to mention, I want a sweater and scarf like Phillip's for Christmas!
This was absolutely lovely!! So inspiring in many ways! You are both darling and wonderful! I do think we all need a Philip!! :) Merry Advent!!

I love it when you call each other Darling....Melts my heart. Perfect tree
That was so romantic and then hearing Philip say Merry advent darling just melted my heart!
Thank you so much for all the joy! 🎄💝🎄
Even without the decorations, it’s a beautiful tree! 🤩
I’m glad you could find a way to relax and enjoy together, while keeping on track with your vlogs. Well done! 👌
Phillip cooks, decorates and cleans. He's a keeper.

Possibly my favorite video every- so cozy and lovely. You two are just beautiful and so compatible. Thank you for sharing.
Yum, yum A new Advent Tradition ❤️🎄❤️. Hot Chocolate with coconut milk and rum, yea Stephanie & Philip, what a delicious evening! Peace and Love to everyone this evening💕🎄💕.
Cutting the tinsel garland into short lengths is a brilliant idea.
And flat decorations are so much easier to stores than balls.
That Christmas toile just makes my heart race! Pottery Barn has a charcoal winter toile that I’m jonesing for!

"Merry advent, darling." ❤️💕 Best couple ever
My daughter said the same thing about having all the Christmas lights on. "It looks so cozy."

I hope you get a few more mornings like that during advent, Caribbean hot chocolate, and all 😁❤️
What gorgeous tree! It goes so well with everything! Even your father's painting on the wall by the TV.
A real de jouy explosion and its beautiful! Love the tree and who could not love the textiles. Its going to be a lovely space to get away to and be alone... how lovely.
I love to see you and Philip together and loving it! You two DAHLINGS!
I have the same curlers...and since you brought yours out, I think I will curl my hair today with mine! SMILE!
Beautiful. The tree too. You two are the cats meow together. Phillip is a wise man....he aims to please Stephanie. Life is rich with love, joy, traditions, respect and thankfulness.
Just perfect to be surrounded by books, homemade hot chocolate, a log fire, magical Christmas tree and love all in one room.💗🎄☕🍫🔥📚
I absolutely love the vintage and antique ornaments mixed in!
"Oh, come on, you know how ridiculous I am." LOL That's a line that could be applied to me, and I'm going to seek to use it.
Love is...... Hot choc by an open fire with twinkling lights from the Christmas tree ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
For my little bedroom tree I used necklaces and all the odd earrings it looks beautiful and very suitable for the bedroom my husband agrees I normally do a deep pink maroon tree as that is the colours of the room
Beautiful pink tree! My favorite color! All the different shades - work so well on the flocked tree. There's nothing like sleeping to tree light.
If there's such a thing as a Romantic Christmas tree, the "Tree de Jouy" is definitely it! Beautiful, I love it...
I also have a flocked tree, the type that just keeps giving and giving and giving... snow built up in the hallway, down the stairs into the dinning room... the family room and outside the front and back doors, no amount of "hoovering" worked!

Oh Stephanie and Philip the tree is so beautiful, even without the baubles I love it. Never too much pink lol .xx
I think it is absolutely beautiful. Your tree is pinkalicious! I love the tree as well. It is stunning!
Matching the fire extinguisher is key! Lovely as always! Pomp!🦩🏳️🌈🌻🇺🇦
You are both WONDERFUL, i want so much to come and see you so one day maybe it will happen. Thank you for being a light in our lives.
This tree is stunningly beautiful!
The tree is perfect in your boudoir! I adore toile. The pink tinsel is a nice addition.
So adorable Philip saying🧔🏻♀️♥️👸🏼

If you haven’t started All The Light We Cannot See I highly recommend. Spotted it in you book pile. Such an amazing novel!
A random observation, but I love your fire guard!
I love the way the 2 of you were spending time together! It seems like you never do! I hope off camera you are!
Ahhh, what a great start to the holidays with a hot rum chocolate early in the morning. I'd say be good, but I woulnd't want to spoil your evening.
The two of you are adorable ! ❤🏰
What a beautiful tree! Merry Advent to you both...and to all hedgehogs and under the tree puppies 💖
I’m so happy to see you have decorated your bedroom with Toile. I have accents in my room, too. I have several pieces of the Hunt scene. They are a deep shade of red. Love it!

Oh my Philip down on the floor so he doesn’t damage the rug. 😊. I need some of those candles with the wooden wicks.
Beautiful. Like the idea of cutting the tinsel. Thanks for sharing.
I love how Stephanie can look glamurous and also just out of bed 🤭 she is a real natural beauty! Thanks for making me laughing all the time.
This snowy tree and the toile ornaments look incredibly beautiful in your room. Excellent choice. Very romantic.🥰
If you want the lights out with the tree on, I suggest getting a dimmer for the tree. It helps to soften the tree lights. Merry Christmas! 🎄

Wonderful. The red toile de Jouy , chocolate and two hearts ,what more can you ask for?
I wasn't going to put a tree up - just for me, but I jolly-well will now.
White tulle under the tree would look fabulous.
Now that’s a cozy Christmas! A beautiful Christmas tree , hot chocolate and just the two of you!🎄💞
“Merry Advent Darling!” Ahhhhhh! Swoon!
You two are the sweetest pair! And your Christmas bedroom is a holiday dream! So happy for you both!
