Amanda Woods: The Holiday

Amanda Woods from The Holiday is a successful, tightly wound woman who escapes her busy life by swapping homes for a quiet cottage in the English countryside. Away from everything familiar, she slowly softens, opening herself up to connection and vulnerability as her surroundings become calmer and more wintry. Her style follows suit, shifting into cozy knits and simple layers that reflect her growing ease. By the end, she feels more grounded and present, choosing warmth and love over control.

Arrive in Style

Amanda arrives in England bundled in a tailored neutral coat, layered over soft knits and boots built for cobblestone walks. It feels very her. Polished, slightly guarded, and perfectly prepared. 

First Night by the Fire

Curled up in the cottage, Amanda lives in an oversized sweater, a beanie, and a scarf by the fire. The look is comforting, the truest version of her style, relaxed, vulnerable, and completely at home.

At the Pub with Graham

At the pub with Graham, Amanda quietly begins to fall in love, even if she does not fully realize it yet. Dressed in a comfortable but polished outfit, she looks like herself while gently blending into his world, which helps her feel safe, seen, and unexpectedly at ease. It is a reminder that sometimes love begins not with a grand gesture, but with feeling at home where you least expect it.
