Mariah Carey may be the Queen of Christmas Music but Lacey Chabert is the Queen of Christmas Movies. Known for playing the violin virtuoso on “Party of Five” as a kid, and later “trying to make ‘fetch’ happen” as Gretchen Wieners in the classic “Mean Girls,” this holiday season the Mississippi-born, LA-based actress is starring in her first YuleTide movie for Netflix (streaming Nov. 13, “Hot Frosty,” where a snowman magically comes to life and helps her character through the grief of losing her husband) and her fifteenth for the Hallmark Channel (“The Christmas Quest,” in which she plays an archeologist on an adventurous treasure hunt through Iceland, premiering Dec. 1). She’s also the headliner of Christmas Con, in Edison, NJ, Dec. 14-15.

When not binging holiday movies, Chabert’s most beloved winter tradition is being in the kitchen surrounded by family, making her favorite dish, sweet potato casserole, and trying to emulate her late grandmother‘s famous coconut cake and banana pudding recipes. One of her most cherished presents also has to do with matters of the stomach. Her older sister Wendy gave her a box of handwritten recipe cards before she passed away. “I treasure it,” Chabert, 42, tells Alexa. Whether you’ve been naughty or nice, here are things the “Celebrations with Lacey Chabert” host knows will make your holiday season merry and bright.

“This is a must-have in my skincare regimen. It’s super moisturizing and creamy but not too heavy.”

“I love pajamas. I have so many pairs, and have a hard time parting with them, so my collection continues to grow! One of my fave brands is Posh Peanut because they are super-soft and offer adorable matching family sets.” 

“I absolutely love these lip jellies. I have one in every purse, pocket, and even the cup holder in my car! They leave my lips so moisturized and have such pretty colors. This is a great set for a holiday gift.” 

“I travel so much for work that I’ve had to get packing down to an art. My favorite packing situation is my Away Bigger Carry-On suitcase (because it’s light and holds so much) topped with the Dagne Dover Carryall, which has a pouch that allows it to slide onto the suitcase and doesn’t fall off when you’re running through the airport. The combo is perfect.” 

“I love these sneakers because they are so comfortable and the styles are super-fun and cute. I live in them!” 

“Katie Lee Biegel is a co-founder of this delicious wine. I had the pleasure of working with Katie on the movie ‘Groundswell.’ She’s a delight and so is her wine!” 

“I love this clean beauty brand. I use the Super Serum Skin Tint (which gives me a luminous glow) under The Ethereal Baked Face Palette blush, bronzer and highlighter for my everyday look.” 

“I think the style of these sunglasses is so chic and I love that Toms gives back to communities around the world.” 

“J. Crew is a long-time favorite of mine because they have classic pieces that never go out of style. I especially love this cozy cardigan.” 

“My favorite treat is a cupcake, and Sprinkles makes such delicious ones. The rich buttercream frosting is so yummy. My personal favorite flavors are strawberry and black & white. You can even ship them as a gift!” 

“This is so great because it does so much! It roasts, toasts, air fries, bakes, reheats and broils — and it comes in such cute colors!”
