Julianne Hough dances in lingerie by her Christmas tree as she shows off jaw-dropping figure at home

Julianne Hough turned up the heat on the holidays this week, trading cozy knits for a revealing look as she danced around her Christmas tree at home.

The Dancing With the Stars cohost, 37, took to Instagram on Tuesday, to share a series of festive snaps, including an envy-inducing one of her striking a pose in front of her beautifully decorated tree while wearing a black bralette and a tiny thong. 

As she showed off her incredibly toned figure, the performer arched her back and tilted her head behind her as she rested one hand on her hip. 

Another cheeky photo showed the dancer, who opened up about freezing her eggs earlier this year, sitting inside an oversized black Khaite shopping bag.

She peeked over the edge with a soft smile before fully committing to the bit in a second shot, tucking herself inside the bag and extending her perfectly pointed feet.

Other images showed her with her mom, Marriann Hough, and dog Sunny, who she welcomed into her family after the devastating deaths of her pups Lexi and Harley.

‘Christmas at home,’ Hough captioned the post, prompting an outpouring of praise from celebrity friends and fans alike, many of whom flooded the comments to compliment her toned physique and carefree holiday spirit.

While the photos may have felt effortless, Hough has long been candid about the hard work behind her figure. 

Her fitness routine blends dance, strength training, yoga and cardio, with a focus on low-impact, full-body movement to keep things engaging. 

She frequently mixes classes like Body by Simone and CorePower Yoga with the occasional spin session, while also prioritizing consistency over extremes.

‘Monday through Friday, I really try to start my day off right,’ she previously revealed. ‘If you dedicate two hours to yourself in the beginning of the day, you’re gonna be so much happier.’

The actress has also been refreshingly open about how her relationship with her body has evolved.

In a past interview with Shape, Hough reflected on the pressure she once put on herself in her early career.

‘I love my shape because I feel strong and fit, and that makes me feel confident,’ she shared. ‘When I look at pictures of myself when I was 19, my body was bangin’, but I was killing myself.’

She continued, ‘I was working out two and a half hours a day and eating the bare minimum to survive. I was so miserable… Now I’m embracing the fact that I’m a woman with curves.’

These days, weekends are reserved for long hikes with friends, yoga, and Sundays dedicated to rest and mental reset. 

And when motivation dips, fashion steps in as a secret weapon.

‘If I have a really cute outfit on when I exercise, it inspires me to work harder,’ Hough has admitted. ‘I want those clothes to look good on my body.’
