It may be the middle of July, but it's already time to start thinking about getting your fashion on for the holiday season, at least if you're Katy Perry, that is. Today (July 16) the "Dark Horse" singer announced that she is the latest face of H&M's Happy and Merry holiday campaign for Christmas 2015.

Perry made the big H&M announcement on her Instagram, featuring a photo of herself in a big, cozy black and white sweater. Her hair, fitting for the holidays, is tied up in a big red bow.

 "Ladies, Gentlemen & unlabeled- let's take a petite pause on the beauteous summer we are experiencing & open our calendars tooooo... THE HOLIDAYS I am excited to announce that I will be starring in @hm's #HappyandMerry Holiday Campaign launching later this year!!! Stay tuned for the whole unwrapping! Tap for credits! (can't believe I already have holiday emojis in my most recently used emoji's...more shame)," she wrote, alongside seasonal emojis of a Christmas tree, present and star.

Perry is just the latest pop star to lead H&M's holiday campaign. Last year, Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett were the face of Happy and Merry in conjunction with their joint jazz album Cheek to Cheek.

Moreover, the H&M partnership is one of Perry's many forays into the world of fashion. She's recently been named the latest face of fashion house Moschino and has been a longtime spokeswoman for makeup brand Covergirl. Perry also has a line of accessories at Claire's, including a sparkling "Left Shark" phone case.
