With Christmas quickly approaching, many of us are scrambling to find the perfect Instagram caption to describe our visits to the annual tree lighting, decorating the gingerbread house, or trying eggnog for the first time. Each festive moment needs to be immortalized with the perfect Instagram caption for the holiday season.Â
Some may find solace in the timeless melody of none other than the Queen of Christmas herself, Mariah Carey, and her seasonal classic “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” For those seeking a more vintage vibe, why not draw inspiration from the iconic “Rocking Around the Christmas Tree” by Brenda Lee?Â
As an elder member of Generation Z, I find myself taking a middle-ground approach, choosing the timeless charm of Kelly Clarkson for Instagram caption inspo. As a child, I distinctly remember listening to the singer’s song “Underneath The Tree” from her 2013 album, “Wrapped in Red.”Â
Clarkson’s no stranger to writing Instagram-worthy lyrics for the holiday season. As I wait for her to bless the holiday season with yet another round of Christmas classics, here are 12 lyrics for Instagram captions guaranteed to hold Clarkson fans over until the next holiday album arrives.Â
