POP is what I "hear" when I see the vibrant colors in this tablescape. So Color Pop is what I'm calling this table style. Hope you enjoy the pom-tastic ideas and feel inspired to re-create for Mother's Day...or any fun occasion or party. It's pretty easy to pull off, and totally fuss-free! What's not to love?!

Easter for us is brunch. It's a tradition. Whether we have guests over or not. And for me, brunch is all about relaxed entertaining . Taking time to enjoy those around the table, and just be be present, together on this special period of the year.
Brunch is always more fun when funky drinks are involved, don't you think?! And for Easter brunch, a Mimosa Bar is ideal to suit all - The healthy folks, the moms, the kids (minus the champers 'course..), the dads and the cocktail lovers like moi. I spent my childhood in Rio, and over there juices are sacred. It's always hot and naturally, fridges are always full of homemade juices; 3 or more tropical fruit flavors at a time. All made from the pure fruits, water and sugar . They're not that hard to make and taste beyond amazing!
St Patrick's Day is just around the corner, so we've been inspired by all things green and gold! Gold is in our party palettes most time of the year, but couple with emerald hues in Feb., it makes for a classy and grown-up festive combination for any St Paddy's Day dinner parties, family gatherings, and of course seasonal weddings!
The Oscars is on Sunday, if you're a last-minute gal; then you'll LOVE this post! Don't know about you, but pajamas is my go-to outfit for watching anything on TV. But there are such a occasions when a party is planned and you have guests 'round, so my casual-every-day-attire-of-choice is frowned upon... On such occasions, I wanna look like I've made an effort. But without too much hassle. You know, saying to your guests "Oh, this old thang?! I just threw it on..." (wink) when they compliment you on your look...
Galantine's parties are everywhere! And I LOVE it! Love the fact the Valentine's day has become synonymous with just spreading the love, and not necessarily a couples' thang... And LOVE even more, the idea of sipping cocktails, eating delicious morsels, and just celebrating with your gal pals!! So to help you along, I styled this super simple bar cart. Quick too!
Last year we went with a pink and sparkly palette for New Year , but this year I fancied a little classic black and white New Year's Eve arty decor with a touch of gold and French chic! I so hope gold, chic and shiny things will continue to show up not only in our party tables in 2015, but also in all areas of life! And to end the blogging year on a truly sparkly note, here are some New Year's Eve 'golden delicious' party ideas to help your New 2015 Year shine from the word go!
Ho ho hope you're having a great start to the Holidays! :p I personally LOVE the few days leading up to Christmas!

But that's just the way we like it!! Speaking of party gals, if you haven't seen it yet, our Holidays Guide this year boasts some incredible party ideas, crafts and recipes from our fave party bloggers - so go take a peek to get your more festive inspiration, like today's Pink Holiday Tablescape and FREE printable gift tags !
Christmas is 'round the corner! Can you believe it?! One of my favorite traditions in our house, is the Christmas themed breakfast . Whether on Christmas eve, a few days before or Christmas morning itself, going all out this time of year to treat the little ones is all part of the joy! Most week days it's our schedules and 'routine' breakfast rituals that take over. And since kids wake up at silly o' clock at Christmas anyways, you might a swell roll with it! Plus, it's also nice for me to prepare something a little more special and magical for my little elves ;)
Last year we did a round up of gorgeous tablescape for Thanksgiving , so this year we're sharing some fun party ideas for the kids table. This stunning Thanksgiving party was featured first on Bird's Party Magazine a while back, and styled by Alexandra from Enchanted Events and Designs. The idea is to make the Thanksgiving kids table inviting enough so the kids will want to sit put. For a little while at least... So crafts, activities and practical but FUN decorations are a must!
Photo source Though we're all prepping for back to school 'round here, summer is not over yet. No, sir! And we're still making the most of our sunny days by eating and drinking al fresco as much as possible. So bar styling has become a necessity really. They're so practical and can look totally awesome for any occasion.

If you follow me on Instagram , would've have seen a little sneak peak of today's post using Tic Tac ® mints as a wedding favor idea. Tic Tac's goal is to "Shake Things Up" , and I was thrilled when they asked me to come up with a fun packaging idea for a wedding favor! Tic Tac® packs remind me confetti, little colored sprinkles, perfect for weddings. So I wanted a modern vibe for the packaging, something that would be meaningful for a wedding, but also add a modern/funky twist to shake thing up ;) Naturally, I turned to printables. And glitter. 'Cause if you can't have a bit of bling on your wedding day...when can ya?!

TGIF, right?!

Cool or what?!
You needn't style something grandiose to please mom on her special day. Honestly, less is more. A simple but feminine table setting (for breakfast, brunch, picnic or lunch), combined with delicious treats that require no-baking or are very easy to make , look just as impressive, are quick to put together and perfect for dads and kids to re-create at home !

Not sure why, but when I think 'Mardi Gras party', I think flamboyant peacock . Maybe it stems from childhood, watching the amazing Rio caraval parade or escolas de samba strutting their stuff on the sambadrome of Sapucaí ! So peacock' it is for today's inspirational Paint My Party post. BTW, Can you tell I love putting these boards together? It's like the fashion equivalent of # ootd , but for party lovers! ;)
