As the holidays roll in and the temperatures drop, Olivia Munn is all about cozy comfort, thoughtful gifting, and celebrating the little things that make the season special.

The actress, activist, and breast cancer survivor is fronting Athleta’s 2025 holiday campaign, Celebrate the Wins — a joyful ode to progress, self-care, and the small victories that make this time of year meaningful.

E! had the chance to chat with Olivia about holiday gifting and her favorite Athleta winter pieces. The mom-of-two admitted she’s not exactly a pro at remembering to buy presents — but when she finds something great, she goes all in.

“I'm going to tell you something. I am horrible about remembering to get people gifts. I just always have been. Whenever I find something that I'm like, 'Oh my god, this is amazing. Everyone's getting this,' then I'm so happy,” she shared.

When it comes to her go-to Athleta picks this season, Olivia is keeping it warm, soft, and stylish. Her favorites include the In the Clouds Jacket, which she says is “like walking around in the chicest duvet you can think of.”

She’s also obsessed with the Tranquil Waffle Collection, explaining, “Oh my gosh, that waffle is so soft. Also, the fabric is really thin, in that way that you can really layer on top of each other. It's not bulky, it just has such a nice sleek feel to it.” 

And no surprise here — cozy socks are a must on her list. “I wear them all day long. I bring them on the plane with me too. You just never can go wrong with a cozy sock,” she says of the Cloud Scrunch Socks.

Read on to see her winter Athleta must-haves, plus shop her must-see self-care gifting idea below. You're definitely going to want to copy it for the holidays.

Cloud Scrunch Sock

"Sounds maybe a bit boring but you can never go wrong with a pair of cozy socks. A perfect stocking stuffer. Athleta’s Cloud Scrunch Socks are amazing," she said.

"So soft and they come in so many colors. It’s a higher cut but isn’t a typical crew sock. I’m gifting these with maybe fancy chocolates or face masks to inspire a self-care moment."

All About Sherpa Mini Crescent Bag

"For the hard to shop for or maybe for people who you don’t know their size and want to stick to something simple - I love Athleta’s All About Sherpa Mini Crescent Bag. It has a fleece exterior so it’s cozy and plush. It’s the perfect size for a day of window shopping or a leisurely stroll," she said.

Tranquil Waffle 1/2 Zip Sweatshirt

"I love the Tranquil Waffle Collection," Olivia explained. "Joggers, shorts, layering pieces - even a cute bralette. It’s so cozy and looks and feels luxurious without an ultra lux price. I’m gifting these sets to some girlfriends with maybe a candle or a book I know they will love."

Tranquil Mid Rise Waffle Short

Everyone loves a matching set! These waffle shorts pair perfectly with the sweatshirt above, and come in so many colors.

Shine Strap Bra

"I fell in love with the Shine Studio set. I wore it during the photoshoot and it’s become a to-go. It has a subtle sheen to it that just gives something extra," she shared. "Definitely inspires a festive mood and is just a break from the usual rotation of black and navy."

Elation Ultra High Rise Shine Sport Stripe 7/8 Legging

Complete the holiday-worthy set with a pair of leggings. These run up to size XL and come in three colorways.

In the Clouds Jacket

"I also love the In the Clouds Jacket. The name says it all: cloud-like softness. It’s the last fleece jacket you need to own. I love the drawcord around the waist to give some shape or you could even make it cropped. It’s perfect for chilly morning school drop-offs or an end of day hike with a friend," she said.
