These easy summer beach cupcakes not only look super adorable, but they taste like summer in your mouth with their delicious pina colada inspired frosting. Sooo good, you guys! Whether you're baking your own cupcakes or simply decorating store-bought ones (I'd totally choose this option in summer to avoid putting the oven on!), these cupcakes are a cinch to make. And eat! 😉

Summer is my favorite time of year to party, and there's nothing I love more than gathering with friends and celebrating the season in style! In summer we don’t need an excuse to party, we simply celebrate life! :) One of my favorite and most treasured summertime traditions is our annual lake party! Check out all the fun details of our party below, to help inspire you to throw your own epic lake side party this summer!
“This post is sponsored by Sony Pictures in connection with the release of Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation. ” During the summer months I'm always on a lookout for easy ideas to keep my kids (and the whole family) busy and entertained. Are you the same? Even if we plan a vacation trip somewhere, there are those days where I find it quite challenging planning and coming up with a new bucket-list of exciting and fun family adventure to embark upon. This is why I'm so excited to kick off our summer this year with a movie + backyard camping party for my whole gang!
Photo source How's the 4th of July already next week?! 😯 Time sure flies, and there's nothing better than quick and easy DIY crafts, decor and party treats to help us get into the patriotic, festive spirits with style and ease! So here are a few hand-picked Pinterest favorites that have inspired me this week. Hope you too feel inspired for your own red, white and blue celebrations!
Summer is upon us, and apart from drinking sangria all day, I'm dreaming about crafting all sorts of fun, colorful and seasonal party accessories, like these custom summer sun hats! Wouldn't they be so cool for a pool or beach party?! I made these for a summer party shoot I styled a few weeks ago (as you probably saw in my Instagram stories ?) and they looked so fab and were so easy to make, that I had to share the DIY tutorial here with you guys!
Father's Day is this Sunday, and if you need easy, no-cooking-involved, no-fuss but totally delicious ideas to celebrate dad, then this Cheese and Beer Tasting party is IT! I mean, I don't know many dads who'd pass up the chance to taste beer on his special day (or any day...). Or cheese. Or cheese AND beer together! Cheese and beer might sound heavy for summer, but we kept the cheeses light, serving it alongside fresh and seasonal produce, all washed down with more refreshing, summery types of beers.
Paper anything is my jam. But paper flowers are my particular favorites! I mean, you take a fairly simple, banal, flat piece of paper and fashion it into something 3-D, beautiful and super practical. What's not to love?! And did I mention they're so easy to craft? Yep, despite their intricate looks, they're a cinch to make, and one of those DIYs that even the kids can help with!
Summer is nearly here and I can't wait to take my party game outdoors to enjoy the garden, the warm sunshine and all the fabulousness that come with the season!! Speaking of which, today I'm sharing a delicious cocktail that first made an appearance in our Tea Party a couple of weeks ago! Pimm's No. 1 Cup is a delicious, refreshing, big-batch cocktail that is perfectly suited to any warm temps soiree, and would also be ideal for a Father's Day celebration coming up in a few weeks!
We're starting our week with a super fun and gorgeously fragrant DIY. Is there a better way?! These scented bath bombs look so pretty and are a fun crafty activity to make with girlfriends during a girls night-in or spa party and they make a super sweet gift for teachers, or party favor for so many occasions and celebrations!
The royal wedding is in a few days, are you excited?! I sure am, mainly because the event presents us with the perfect opportunity to host a high tea party to celebrate while watching the ceremony! I remember the first royal wedding a few years ago only too well. Not only did we shared some very British inspired party ideas to celebrate the occasion , but my scones recipe was also featured on CNN entertainment, and I'll be forever grateful to the Royal Wedding for that! 😉

Mother's day is coming up and if you need a winning idea on how to treat mom on her special day with something she reeeeally needs and will totally love, then this DIY at home spa party is sure to tick all the boxes! As a mother myself, the one thing I truly want on Mother's Day is to be pampered and get away from the daily chores. Forget jewelry or expensive gifts. All this mother wants is to chilax (husband and kids take notes!)! 😉
Cinco de Mayo is nearly upon us and it's the perfect time of year to celebrate all things Mexican. Starting with the delicious, colorful cuisine, which of course includes some of my favorite fiesta cocktails! Last year I shared my cocktail recipe twist on the classic Mojito here . So this year I thought I'd do the same and re-visit another classic cocktail (the Moscow Mule), to inject a Mexican twist to my happy hour! 😉
