Sure, we’ve yet to get through Halloween, but that doesn’t mean it’s too early to get in the holiday spirit.

And who can blame us, given the festive atmosphere of Kate Hudson’s just-released Holiday 2012 ad campaign for Ann Taylor?

Marking a full year as the face of the fashion brand, Hudson dons glitzy metallic, edgy animal prints, peplums, and bold black and white stripes for her shoot with lensman Norman Jean Roy at Manhattan’s Highline Stages.

“The holidays are so busy, it’s nice to see that Ann Taylor has designed a collection that can go from day to night so easily,” the actress says in a press statement of the shoot, which takes inspiration from a deco dinner party.

“The jewelry is strong yet sexy, and has just the right bit of sparkle,” she adds. “It’s perfect for holiday gifts and I just love the faux fur cardigan.”

Forget gifts—we’re too busy planning our cocktail party get-ups!
