It’s almost that time of the year when all we want to do after all the parties and hangouts with friends & family is to have a large bowl of popcorn and a large mug of hot chocolate while we watch the most cheesy happy endings Christmas movies on Netflix.
Christmas is one of my favorite holidays of the year, from traveling to spend it with family to having late breakfast, to waking up later than usual -not that I wake up so early on a normal day lol, most importantly to opening up gifts on the morning of Boxing Day!
While the Christmas holidays are always filled up with various activities, the best part is bonding with friends and family, and what other way to do it than to have interesting Christmas movies to watch on Netflix?
I’ve currently been on a Christmas movie binge on Netflix, if you follow me on Instagram (@thelifestylegal_), you’d have gotten a few Christmas movies to watch on Netflix ideas from my story.
One beautiful yet cliche thing Christmas movies on Netflix have in common is a journalist or writer traveling to a small town with no actual name just to fall in love with someone in that small town with no actual name lol. Oh, wait! My absolute favorite is when the storyline is about a famous person traveling to a small town for work or a shoot or something random and falling for the town’s baker!
Don’t we all love cheesy cliche movies now! It’s the season so embrace it!
Without further ado, let’s get into business!

This is a 2021 Christmas movie on Netflix, and it’s one movie that’ll get you in the Christmas spirit. It tells the story of a young blogger/writer who has had terrible relationships in the past and writes about her terrible relationships on her blog. She meets a young handsome man on a dating site and decides to travel to a country she’s never been to just to pay him a surprise visit on Christmas Day! Guess what?… drumroll pleaseeeeeeee!!!!

The Princess Switch
This movie is the typical cliche Christmas movie. Prince meets baker/princess meets baker and they all fall in love! How classic! A baker and her male bestie baker sign up for a baking competition in the palace, she runs into the princess who’s her look-alike and they automatically become best friends and decide to switch places. Male baker falls for the princess while the prince falls for the female baker! How cheesy! This is a must-watch btw!

This second part continues the love story of our favorite bakers, in this part, the princess is being crowned queen and the former baker now turned princess and her prince try to fix the soon to be queen’s relationship with her baker lover. There’s a twist, there is a cousin who looks exactly like the two! Twist, turns, heartbreak, every emotion was felt in this second part and I loved it!
The Princess Switch 3: Romancing The Stars
