For the holiday season, Quebec actress Catherine St-Laurent turns to Marshalls to curate a festive wardrobe and thoughtful gift ideas that strike the perfect balance between style, quality, and accessibility.
A known fashion enthusiast, St-Laurent trusted Marshalls’ in-store selection to assemble an evening look that reflects her personal aesthetic: elegant, modern, and effortless. Her holiday outfit centers on refined materials and timeless silhouettes, proving that sophistication doesn’t have to come with an inflated price tag.
She gravitated toward a short-sleeve cashmere cardigan in a vibrant red, the standout shade of the Fall/Winter 2025–2026 season. Paired with a flowing ivory silk maxi skirt, the look feels both festive and understated. Accessories complete the ensemble with intention: a structured black leather handbag, deep burgundy gloves trimmed with faux fur, metallic low-heeled mules designed for comfort, and sculptural statement earrings that add a subtle glow.
The result is a polished holiday look that feels current without being overdone, and one that’s easily replicable thanks to Marshalls’ constantly evolving inventory of quality pieces at approachable prices.
Thoughtful Holiday Gifts, All in One Place
When it came to gift shopping, St-Laurent found everything she needed under one roof. Marshalls’ global buying approach, sourcing premium items from around the world, makes it easy to discover exceptional products across fashion, beauty, home, and lifestyle.
From European chocolates and Italian leather goods to designer accessories and high-quality cashmere, the selection offers something for every taste and budget. It’s this diversity that allows shoppers to find gifts that feel personal, without the stress of overplanning.
“Advent calendars are a tradition in my home,” St-Laurent shares. “I love that Marshalls offers self-care–focused versions, it’s such a nice way to slow down and take care of yourself during the holidays.”
Among her favorite finds: a trendy mini bag, a chic cashmere sweater with pearl-embroidered details, a cozy holiday pajama set packaged in a festive box, a beauty-filled advent calendar, and a sleek Italian coffee maker that blends form and function.
Every Visit, a New Discovery
With new arrivals hitting stores daily, every trip to Marshalls feels like a fresh opportunity to uncover something unexpected, whether it’s a gift for someone else or a well-deserved treat for yourself.
St-Laurent continues a personal tradition as well: gifting herself a new pair of pajamas each year. “When I was a kid, my parents did that for us. Now, I keep the tradition alive, just for me.”
As the holiday season approaches, Marshalls proves once again that great style and thoughtful gifting don’t require compromise. The hardest part? Deciding what to give… and what to keep.
