With so much excitement at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, it’s hard to give each float and performance their deserved attention.

This year proved especially challenging as Mariah Carey lead the way in a stunning ensemble that kept the gaze on her long after she passed. The singer is famous for her holiday spirit, and she did not disappoint while standing atop her advent calendar themed float in a red form-fitting gown and glamorous white shrug jacket.

The smiling star, 45, looked radiant as she waved down at the parade attendees. The tight, floor-length dress highlighted her notorious curves and had her looking like a sexy holiday queen. Any discomfort she may have experienced due to the cold was hidden behind her bright smile and powerful vocal chords as she sang out the crowd favorite, “All I Want For Christmas is You.”

Mariah wore long white gloves that stretched under the sleeves of her cozy shrug, making her look elegant and regal. To top it all off, the singer added a large white and silver necklace and sparkling dangle earrings visible through a cascade of her golden hair in ringlets.
