As QVC&#8217;s newly minted Co-Chief Cheer Officer alongside fellow honoree Lance Bass, the actor, director and Be Free by Danielle Fishel founder is spending July fully immersed in holiday mode\u2014curating gift lists, expanding her hair-care line with new styling products and gearing up for QVC&#8217;s 40th anniversary Christmas in July celebration. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">We caught up with Fishel to talk holiday shopping strategy, her own hair routine and why getting a head start on the holidays is the secret to actually enjoying them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h2 id=\"you-and-lance-have-been-friends-for-years-but-this-is-your-first-time-working-as-co-chief-cheer-officers-together-whats-it-actually-like-working-side-by-side-with-him-on-something-like-this-and-did-anything-surprise-you-about-how-he-approaches-the-holidays\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\"><strong class=\"font-semibold\">You and Lance have been friends for years, but this is your first time working as Co-Chief Cheer Officers together. What\u2019s it actually like working side by side with him on something like this, and did anything surprise you about how he approaches the holidays?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cLance and I have been sharing our love of the holidays, our friendship and being huge fans of QVC\u2019s beloved annual Christmas in July celebration for years. What surprised me is how much Lance is in holiday mode at all times. While I try to ease my way into Christmas in July throughout the month, he\u2019s fully crossed off multiple items on his d\u00e9cor and gifting to-do list on day one. The mindset is honestly contagious!\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"your-line-be-free-is-launching-new-styling-products-right-in-the-middle-of-christmas-in-july-what-made-this-the-right-moment-to-expand-the-line-and-how-do-these-new-pieces-fit-into-a-gifting-list\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\"><strong class=\"font-semibold\">Your line, Be Free, is launching new styling products right in the middle of Christmas in July. What made this the right moment to expand the line, and how do these new pieces fit into a gifting list?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cWe wanted Be Free to feel like a gift you\u2019d actually want to open\u2014something that makes your routine easier, not more complicated. Bundling my products and these limited-time deals on our Detangler &amp; Leave-in Conditioner ($37) and Volumizing Cream ($37, originally $41) is the perfect way to find a new hair-care routine without all the guesswork. While these make great stocking-stuffers, they\u2019re also perfect for year-round, treat yourself moments, and you can easily stock up on QVC.com.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"christmas-in-july-prompts-people-to-think-about-the-holidays-in-the-middle-of-summer-how-do-you-personally-get-into-that-mindset-and-does-anything-about-your-own-decorating-or-gifting-change-when-youre-planning-that-far-ahead\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\"><strong class=\"font-semibold\">Christmas in July prompts people to think about the holidays in the middle of summer. How do you personally get into that mindset, and does anything about your own decorating or gifting change when you\u2019re planning that far ahead?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cHonestly, with two little boys, I\u2019m already living in a constant state of \u2018let\u2019s turn this into something fun,\u2019 so mentally jumping into the holiday mindset during the summer isn\u2019t that big of a leap for me. I really love planning\u2014it takes the pressure off in December, and I can focus on more quality time with family and friends. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">So, QVC\u2019s Christmas in July celebration actually comes at the perfect time for me. Now, I can just sit back in the fall and enjoy looking forward to watching everyone open the gifts I already checked off my list. It\u2019s also not that hard to get into the spirit when you\u2019re working with the King of Christmas himself, Lance Bass. I\u2019ve already gotten so much major inspiration from him for my own d\u00e9cor and gifts this year.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"youre-also-curating-an-exclusive-gift-list-for-shoppers-this-year-walk-me-through-how-you-approached-putting-that-together-what-were-you-looking-for-and-is-there-one-pick-youre-most-excited-about\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\"><strong class=\"font-semibold\">You\u2019re also curating an exclusive gift list for shoppers this year. Walk me through how you approached putting that together. What were you looking for, and is there one pick you\u2019re most excited about?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cI really wanted this list to encompass things I\u2019d want to gift personally, not just a generic \u2018here\u2019s what\u2019s popular\u2019 list. So, I leaned into my go-to beauty and lifestyle hacks, which I rely on daily and end up gifting everyone. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">The Poo-Pourri Set ($30, originally $34) is a non-negotiable stocking stuffer in my house because it\u2019s so reliable, handy and a great hosting trick. And of course, some of the Be Free picks always make the cut; I love gifting the Be Free by Volume Haircare 3-Piece Set ($50, originally $60) because it has everything you need in one bundle.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"youre-joining-john-battagliese-for-the-holiday-episode-of-carte-blanche-what-can-viewers-expect-from-that-and-is-there-a-moment-from-filming-that-stuck-with-you\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\"><strong class=\"font-semibold\">You\u2019re joining John Battagliese for the holiday episode of <em class=\"italic\">Carte Blanche.<\/em> What can viewers expect from that, and is there a moment from filming that stuck with you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cIt was fun to be on the other side of the mic for a change and connect with a fellow podcaster to just chat through my holiday picks, traditions and more. John makes those conversations so easy; it feels less like an interview and more like hanging out with old friends. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">One of my favorite parts was getting into our stocking stuffer traditions, gifting tips and exchanging old family stories. It was so cozy and fun, and exactly the energy we wanted to give with this Christmas in July-themed episode. You can watch the full episode featuring Lance Bass and me on Carte Blanche, streaming free on demand now on QVC+ and HSN+ and on QVC\u2019s YouTube.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"my-8\">\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Danielle Fishel &amp; Lance Bass Celebrate Christmas in July | QVC&#039;s Cart Blanche w\/ John Battagliese\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aXTm4ZGingQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"forty-years-in-qvcs-christmas-in-july-has-become-its-own-tradition-what-does-it-mean-to-you-to-be-part-of-that-milestone-anniversary-and-how-would-you-describe-your-own-holiday-style-to-someone-whos-never-watched-before\" class=\"font-canela mb-4 mt-8 text-2xl font-light leading-tight text-black md:text-3xl\"><strong class=\"font-semibold\">Forty years in, QVC\u2019s Christmas in July has become its own tradition. What does it mean to you to be part of that milestone anniversary, and how would you describe your own holiday style to someone who\u2019s never watched before?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">\u201cIt\u2019s so extraordinary for me to be a part of a milestone as incredible as QVC\u2019s 40th Anniversary. I\u2019ve watched QVC for as long as I can remember, and my favorite times to tune in were during the elaborate holiday specials, including QVC\u2019s annual Christmas in July, as they always have the best new products, deals and festive programming that only comes around at certain times of the year. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text-md mb-6 leading-relaxed text-gray-500\">I\u2019m all about making the holiday season easier by getting a head start, so now, as a mom, I\u2019m implementing this tradition in my own life as well. As for my holiday style, I\u2019m all about cozy over perfect, making sure to take the pressure off to make the holidays flawless any way I can. Making my kids happy and the season less stressful is the main goal for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Danielle Fishel is not waiting for December.
