What do you get the woman who has everything? A Sable, ’54 convertible, yacht, and the deed to a platinum mine, of course! And don’t worry, Kim Kardashian is asking Santa for her presents very, very nicely.

On Sunday, the 44-year-old posted an original music video to her social media channels in which she performs a breathy, honestly kind of fabulous version of "Santa Baby." While the entire four-and-a-half minute video is something to behold (Macaulay Culkin plays Santa Claus, armed with a camcorder), one thing immediately stands out re: the vision for the project: her hair.

In what might be a nod to Kardashian’s first dance with the track, which she recorded in a slicked-back, rooty blonde bun with her sisters during an episode of The Kardashians, she chose to once again lighten her hair for this momentous occasion. To make things even more exciting, she wore the all-over platinum locks in an ’80s bob with messy bangs.

The reality star’s ‘do was the work of celebrity hairstylist Jake Gallagher, who is a true whiz with a wig. Tousled and layered, the hair retained its major volume as she crawled through an elf, dancer, and businessman-attended house party (would we call it that? you tell me), laying on the floor and letting a vacuum work its way around her famous head.

Lilly Keys, who has worked with Kardashian on numerous recent Skims campaigns, took charge of makeup, crafting a beautiful smoky eye, dark brows, and very glossy pink lips for directors Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis to capture.

In the end, it was a holiday look that—if this businesswoman is smart and puts the song on Spotify instead of letting it get lost in her feed—might just stand the test of time. Has a new Christmas icon been born? Her middle name isn't "Noel" for nothing.
