Because why not? Dax Shepard and Kristen Bell aren’t just pulling out their decorations this holiday season — the couple are digging out their matching clothes.
“We’re both nuts about Christmas. We have about 30 matching outfits that start at the end of November,” Shepard, 42, exclusively tells Us Weekly. “The house is decorated not dissimilar to Clark Griswold’s.”
Something just like this! Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard have shown Us what true love is all about since they started dating in 2007. The A-listers — who share daughters Lincoln and Delta — got engaged in 2009 and tied the knot in 2013. They’ve been open with fans about their lighthearted, loving relationship and […]
The Parenthood alum and Bell, 37, have coordinated their clothes for years. And now, the actor is revealing why.
“We’re both from Detroit and everyone in Detroit goes to a theme park called Cedar Point in Ohio. That’s like our closest theme park. And for whatever reason couples always dress the same at Cedar Point,” Shepard tells Us, laughing. “And I think that made a real mark on both Bell and I. When opportunity presents itself we love dressing the same. And that’s extended to our kids. And now our kids also love to dress the same as us. On Halloween I had to match the 2-year-old’s costume and Kristen had to match the 4-year-olds.”

Don’t worry, though. Shepard reassures that the family still has their own “individual flare.” However, if “there is an appropriate occasion we sprint towards the matching outfits.”
The couple and their two daughters — Lincoln and Delta — plan to road trip to Oregon to visit Shepard’s mom for Christmas. As for what they want from Santa? Surprisingly, nothing too crazy!
“In fact I’m a little disappointed in them and a little worried that they are spoiled or something,” the CHIPS star says. “Because I asked the 4-year-old what she wanted and she really didn’t say anything. It’s a little concerning that she couldn’t think of anything.”

Nevertheless, Shepard is looking forward to the big day. “As a mantra I think you have to repeat, ‘This is the only time I will get to do this.’ This is it. This is when they are little and cute. And when it’s frustrating or annoying I just try to remember that this soon will pass and I’ll miss it desperately so,” he says of how to survive Christmas. “It’s quite a challenge. The goal is to stay in the present and be aware a little bit that these are fleeting moments before they grow up and begin to hate you and go to therapy.”
Ahead of their travel, Shepard and Bell spent time in NYC promoting Charmin’s new restrooms in Times Square. “I was pretty overwhelmed with how cool the actual bathrooms were,” he says. “If we had a house with six bathrooms or something I do feel inspired and I would take their lead and build something exotic. Because it’s a party in there.”
