Come Party With Me: Tailgate — The Look

Decorating a tailgate is a no brainer. Get everything in your team's school colors; I'm supporting the California Golden Bears so my party will have a blue and gold color scheme. Start by getting as many folding chairs and tables as you can. Use patterns to create depth in an outdoor parking lot setting. Get striped lawn chairs and a checkered tablecloth. Hang streamers from cars or nearby trees to mark your (insert team mascot here) territory. For ...

Come Party With Me: Fall Dinner - The Look

Come Party With Me: Fall Dinner - The Look

Putting together a fall table setting is fun and easy. For a fall dinner party I recommend going for a rustic, golden look. Cover the table in a festive brown tablecloth with fall accents and colors. Placing a twig runner down the middle of the table adds a touch of earthiness. Use brilliant gold plates, bowls, and serving platters. In the center of the table, on the runner, arrange an orange bouquet. Scatter mini wine glass candles attractively around ...

The Look: Alice + Olivia in Wonderland

The Look: Alice + Olivia in Wonderland

This week my girl FabSugar found herself at the Alice + Olivia Alice in Wonderland themed show. While the clothing is absolutely gorgeous â€" lots of bold patterns and frilly sleeves â€" I was really excited to discover that she was on Yum patrol and snapped lots of photos of the nosh and drinks.

An ornate yellow table and matching yellow chairs stood in the center of the room. On the table black, white and yellow dinnerware echoed the ...

To Ban Or Not To Ban?

To Ban Or Not To Ban?

In the past Kelly Cutrone, founder of PR firm People’s Revolution, has made a name for herself by silencing those with a less than flattering opinion of her clients. Her latest campaign is against The Fug Girls, banning them from all People’s Revolution shows for comments made against Nicky Hilton & her latest attempt as a designer. Ms. Cutrone defended herself by stating “It’s a regional magazine. It’s not Vogue. It’s New ...

Come Party With Me: Camping Trip - The Look

Come Party With Me: Camping Trip - The Look

One of my all time favorite movies is Troop Beverly Hills starring Shelly Long. In the film, she makes camping utterly glamorous with her fabulous tents and fashionable safari ware. With the right sort of decorations, you too can turn your campsite into a lush playground like Phyllis Nefler did. Obviously you will need the basics, such as tents and sleeping bags, but also pack a beautiful tablecloth, lots of unscented, colorful pillar candles and vases for all ...

Come Party With Me: Luau Dinner For 8 - The Look & Music

Come Party With Me: Luau Dinner For 8 - The Look & Music

Luau parties are fabulous because you can create a festive atmosphere with fresh decorations. Since this is a dinner party, the focal point should be the dining table you set up outdoors. If you are crafty and have plenty of time on your hands, get a gorgeous piece of Hawaiian shirt fabric at the local fabric store and make a tablecloth. Otherwise purchase a bright yellow tablecloth and fuchsia tiki placemats. Square shaped plates with a palm tree print ...

Hot Summer Read: The Dressmaker

Hot Summer Read:  The Dressmaker

Claude Reynaud was a small time tailor with haute couture skills, tucked away in a small town in France. Customers, mostly referred to him by word of mouth, kept his calendar full with special occasion dresses and new suits. A simple man, he was quite content following in his fathers footsteps from his quaint studio, accompanied only by his parrot, Pendant.

Claude was known for his keen eye and exquisite taste, so it’s no surprise Valentine de ...

Come Party With Me: Travel Party - The Look & Music

In my opinion, the best part of a travel party is transforming each room to resemble a different country. With a little imagination, it's easy to come up with festive and fun decor.

  • Mexico: Dress the table with Mexican blankets and hang a Mexican banner in a crisscross pattern along the ceiling. Plate chips and dips in plastic sombrero shaped serving platters. Use bright candles, flowers, and clear glasses for the tequila sunrises. Create a playlist with your favorite Latin ...

Sweeten Up!

Sweeten Up!

There are many aromas which claim to be stress relieving or relaxing, ranging from lavender, to chamomile to sandalwood and rosemary. We feel there is one significantly overlooked scent that is guaranteed to calm you down in an instant: chocolate.

Initially, we were curious and a bit taken aback at the idea of chocolate scented body products. Sure a Snickers is the perfect stress reliever at the end of a rough day, but could body products do the ...

Come Party With Me: Housewarming Party - The Look & Music

Unlike a theme party, the decorations at a housewarming party don't play a vital role in the atmosphere. Don't get me wrong, you do need decorations, but keep it simple and elegant. The decor of the party should not disguise the natural look of your new home, but enhance it.

A richly hued tablecloth with mirror disks scattered over the top looks festive yet understated. For the centerpiece fill a large copper bowl with aqua colored floating candles. Place a ...

The Real Top Models

The Real Top Models

With all the versions of Top Model these days, it can be difficult to remember a time when real top models ruled the world. Fortunately, Forbes has compiled a list of the world’s top earning models.

At number one, it’s no surprise to see Gisele Bundchen top the list. She has earned an estimated $33 million, and is currently the face of Dolce & Gabbana’s latest fragrance.

#2: Kate Moss, $9 million

#3: Heidi Klum, $8 ...

Come Party With Me: Pool Party - The Look & Music

Create a glamorous outdoor look for your pool party by incorporating organic, earthy blues and greens jazzed up with splashes of bright summer colors. Arrange patio furniture so that one area is about tanning/reading and another about lounging/chatting. Cover the chaises with striped beach towels and place brightly colored green cushions on top. Use large umbrellas to add shade for those who wish to stay out of the sun and be sure to fill small bowls next to the ...
