The Queen of Christmas herself, Mariah Carey, was wrapping up her Christmas shopping when she was spotted picking up some last-minute gifts on Christmas Eve in Aspen.
The 55-year-old singer, who recently broke her own Billboard record with a staggering 17 weeks at number one with All I Want For Christmas, looked effortlessly chic as she shopped at Gucci in the chic ski town.
Dressed in a red Santa jacket and chic black leather pants, Mariah flashed her signature megawatt smile, fully embracing retail therapy just hours before the big day.
She also treated her fans to some festive looks on Instagram, sharing cozy snaps from her Christmas celebrations, including a shot of her towering Christmas tree.
In another photo, Mariah donned a stunning apron as she showed off her culinary skills in the kitchen.
“Happy Christmas Eve everyone,” she captioned the carousel, which featured a sweet moment of the superstar playing in the snow.

The epic social media share comes after fans expressed mixed feelings about Mariah’s performance during a recent Christmas concert.
In an Instagram video captured during her show in Philadelphia, Mariah can be seen struggling with one of her signature high notes, a moment that didn’t go unnoticed by her fans.
While performing at the holiday event, the diva botched the iconic It’s Time high note, a vocal feat she made legendary in her annual Christmas season kickoff video.
His momentary slip was followed by a fleeting, almost dissatisfied expression, before he regained his composure with a quick recovery.
However, when the video circulated on social media platforms such as Instagram and TikTok, fans quickly drew attention to the issue and pointed out the missing note.
The concert featured a selection of songs from her 1994 Christmas classic, Merry Christmas, which Mariah resurrects year after year to celebrate the holiday season.
The timing of this performance comes shortly after Mariah was spotted on what looked like a romantic date night with her rumored new boyfriend, Anderson Paak.
The two were seen holding hands as they entered Catch Steak restaurant in Aspen, Colorado, although sources close to the couple told TMZ they are not romantically involved.

Mariah dressed to impress for the holidays

While the duo left the restaurant separately, it was clear that they had been spending time together, collaborating on a new musical project in a nearby studio.
Anderson has been sharing glimpses of her creative work on social media, including a video from the renowned Electric Lady Studios in New York City, where the two were seen recording earlier this year.
The couple also connected during Halloween, with Anderson sharing a fun photo dressed as Daft Punk while spending the spooky season with Mariah.
Mariah’s love life has been in the spotlight over the years, including her previous relationships with dancer Bryan Tanaka (whom she split from last year), her ex-husbands Nick Cannon (2008-2016) and Tommy Mottola (1993-1998). and raising her 13-year-old twins, Monroe and Morocco, with Cannon.
Now, she appears to be embracing a new chapter, musical and possibly romantic, as she continues to reign as the undisputed Queen of Christmas.
