People have been known to top a tree for the holidays in ornaments new and old. It’s sometimes nice to see the different options and glimpse how people make their tree their very own. This year, Hargitay and the tree she shares with her husband, Peter Hermann, and her three children, August, Amaya, and Andrew, is full of ornaments. The tree appears to be a real one, and many of its branches feature a unique ornament.

There are snowflakes and classic holiday ornament balls in different shapes, colors, and sizes, but a few pieces really stand out. Hargitay recently shared a few images of her Christmas tree, and one of the first ornaments that draws the eye is Wonder Woman. She sports her iconic red boots and red, white, and blue suit with her arms crossed at her chest. She also has on the popular tiara and golden lasso, The Lasso of Truth.

There’s also an ornament of Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Hargitay’s tree

In 2019, Hargitay revealed in an interview on Late Night with Seth Meyers that her son gave her a figurine of the justice that has been seen on Benson’s desk in the squad room. Meyers asked if Benson’s love of RBG was something she added, and it turns out it was

“Well as I became lieutenant, I started thinking about who do I look up to? Who is Olivia Benson’s inspiration? And she is about as superhero as they come,” Hargitay said. “I watched that movie it changed my life, and I could watch that movie on a loop, RBG.”
