On November 14, 2024, BET+ released 'Style Me For Christmas', which has received positive reviews from critics. In the film, "A fashion designer struggling to keep her business and house afloat during the holidays gets the answer to her prayers when famous R&B singer, Tedee Maxwell becomes her newest client." The ensemble cast includes Raven Goodwin, Pretty Vee, and Cheryl Frazier. But what did critics say?
Mandi Bierly of TV Line says, "Our runner-up pick, Style Me for Christmas (streaming now), may be BET+’s best holiday movie to date. Raven Goodwin stars as Tiffany, a fashion designer who’s about to lose the Atlanta boutique she inherited from her mother when the pseudo-momager of playboy R&B singer Tedee Maxwell (frequently bare-chested Mario “Mario” Barrett) decides the best way to boost sales for his holiday album is to have him linked to a nice Mrs. Claus. She hires Tiffany to be Tedee’s seasonal stylist, and the two become friends — and possibly more — much to the annoyance of Tedee’s influencer ex, Nicole (Sincerely Ward). A month into the predictable holiday movie season, it’s so nice to see people enjoy themselves on a party dance floor because the music playing isn’t carols; watch a villain get her comeuppance but not redemption; and howl when someone (scene-stealer Vena “Pretty Vee” Excell as Tiffany’s ride-or-die Ray’ah) does a test-grind on Tedee’s couch. The soundtrack is great. The message — you are enough, and you’re worth it — is real."
