The Queen of Christmas is shopping in style. No stranger to sparkle, Mariah Carey rivaled the winter snow in a glittering, all-Gucci ensemble - including a dress and cardigan that retail for a combined total of $17,000 - as she shopped at the brand's Aspen, Colo., location on Saturday, December 21.
For her shopping outing, the "All I Want for Christmas Is You" singer, 55, donned a knitwear set from Gucci's Fall/Winter 2024 collection: the brand's chunky rib wool cardigan and chunky rib wool tank dress. Sold out online, the sweater and mini dress retail for $14,900 and $2,100, respectively.
The singer kept warm by layering the wool cardigan - a thick, oatmeal-colored sweater featuring tinsel-like beaded fringe embroidery on the hem and sleeves - over the matching dress, a sleeveless, scoop-neck number. For additional sparkle, she teamed the pieces with glittery tights and a chunky silver necklace.
Also helping Carey beat the Colorado cold was a winter cap, also Gucci. The star topped off her ensemble with the fashion house's rib knit wool lamé hat, a cream-colored beanie featuring the classic Gucci monogram. Under the hat, she wore her hair down in a sleek, straight style. As for makeup, she opted for a glowy glam, complete with a glossy lip.
For footwear, meanwhile, the musician chose shoes she can take from the Gucci store to the slopes, donning a pair of white snow boots. She also added a pair of classic aviators to round out the wintry ensemble.
Carey's Aspen shopping trip comes shortly after she chatted with People from the Colorado holiday hotspot - where she has spent the holiday season the past few years - about her recent Christmas shows.
The "Heartbreaker" singer loved doing her Christmas Time Tour, which wrapped on December 17 in Brooklyn, but said she might make some scheduling changes in the future after she was forced to cancel three shows due to the flu.
"I really love doing it, I just need to schedule it a little bit differently because this year I'd gotten sick just from being out there too long,” she told People earlier this month.
The iconic vocalist also reflected on her final show, during which she descended into the crowd - and signed Rihanna's breasts in a viral moment. "I was like, 'You cannot call me a diva again because I'm literally backing down the stairs,'" Carey told People of the moment.
As for her exchange with the "Disturbia" singer, she said, "That was hilarious. I had heard that Rihanna was coming to the show, but I didn't think she was going to be in the actual crowd. She was fun."
And, when asked whether or not she's tired Christmas music yet, the singer revealed that she is not - and was even listening to one of her own holiday tracks at that exact moment. "I'm in Aspen, and right now 'Oh Santa!' is playing over the speakers," the singer told People. “And I'm like, 'I guess I'm not sick of it.'"
