‘Tis the season for celebration! And Porsha (Williams) Guobadia is feeling the holiday spirit.
The former “Real Housewife Of Atlanta (RHOA)” marked the season with new posts on Instagram that we love. Porsha poses near a gorgeous grand staircase and stunning Christmas tree. Rich green garland lines the banister as red and gold bulbs and ornaments are sprinkled throughout.
Porsha stands out in a black lace gown amid the green, red, and gold scene. Her dress is breathtakingly beautiful with its see-through corset top and sheer and rosette skirt as it flows down the stairs.
Porsha’s hair – from her company, Go Naked – adds a touch of holiday glamour with soft curls and blonde highlights. Her toes are painted in winter white.

Porsha is just one of our favorite stars getting festive this season. From decking the halls in red, green, and white and donning sequins, furs, and velvet to singing joyous carols, giving back, and spending time with loved ones, starlets are taking every moment to relish the season.
The excitement, love, and anticipation is infectious.
Jamie Foxx is ‘lit for the holidays
There is no way “Santa” could miss Jamie Foxx’s house with his festive property decorations for the season. Lights touch every part of the “Ray” star’s property, starting with the word “JOY” in the front. Trees are adorned with crisp white, red, and green lights, Nutcrackers, snowflakes, and snowmen (and women) are everywhere, and a Black Santa greets guests.
“When I was a kid the only lights we could afford for outside the house was a red light bulb… I said when I’m finally blessed enough. I’m GON LIGHT IT UP!!!,” Jamie writes on Instagram, sharing an aerial view of the display. See Jamie’s epic holiday decorations below.

Former “Destiny’s Child” member Michelle Williams reminds fans of setting boundaries for the holidays. See her helpful holiday reminder below.
