Gatherings

Music on. Glasses clink. Conversation flows. Community is at the heart of our gatherings, and intentionality is key. Here we cover all elements of hosting a great party without the stress, while tapping our favorite tastemakers to share the unique ways they host at home.

Be Present, Be Merry

Merry Christmas, friends! This time of year always makes me so sentimental about how quickly time passes — maybe it’s because there are so many memories wrapped up in the holidays that I find myself trying to grasp onto every little moment that happens and take a snapshot in my mind, knowing that I’ll turn around and this time […]

A Glamorous Holiday Cookie Party

Did you guys catch our ultra cozy holiday party a few weeks ago? It was one of our favorite at-home gatherings ever, and it totally captured the essence of spending a lazy fall evening with loved ones. These days however, our social calendars have us doing anything but kicking back on the couch — instead, it’s […]

Liberty London Girl

If you’re scrambling to get your act together for this week’s big holiday meal, just imagine this: what if you were hosting that meal in a remote location? And no, we’re not talking the park down the street. We’re talking another continent. That’s just what Sasha Wilkins did last week, as she planned and hosted […]

Are You Spending Too Much on Holiday Gifting?

It’s the question I ask myself each time I punch in that 16-digit credit card number to place an online order, and frankly, it’s a major point of stress for me this time of year. I’ve been thinking a lot about why the holidays — the most wonderful time of the year — make so many of us […]

How to Setup a Holiday Bubbly Bar

I’ll let you guys in on a little secret: I’m shamelessly lazy when it comes to making cocktails at parties. I’ve never been able to figure out how some hosts are able to mix and shake drink after drink… and still have time to actually talk to their guests. Instead, I rely on a couple of go-to strategies to […]

Wooden Pine Tree Place Cards

We’re all about the place cards this holiday season (remember these little rosemary wreaths from a few weeks ago?) The reason? Because even if you’re setting a table with all your go-to, everyday dinnerware, a festive place card is the only detail you need to make the space feel fun and seasonal. Case in point: today’s all […]

How to Host a Cookie Decorating Party

Cookie decorating is one of those activities that instantly gets me in the holiday spirit, and every December I can’t wait to bust out the cookie cutters, frosting, and sprinkles and get to work. And since it’s also the most fun holiday activity to do with kids, I decided to throw a little decorating bash at our house […]

Weekend Notes *Holiday Edition*

Hey guys! I’m sure many of y’all are also in full holiday mode this weekend: trimming the tree, wrapping gifts, and jingle bell rockin’ at parties tonight. These weeks in December fly by so quickly that it feels like a challenge to squeeze in all the requisite holiday festivities before the season ends — but […]

16 Glittery, Glamorous, Fun Dresses for New Year’s Eve

It seems like every December we overhear some grumpy chatter about New Year’s Eve being the most overrated holiday of the year. But we’ve always known exactly what this holiday is — an excuse to wear head to toe sequins, regardless of social setting. Our advice? Worry less about finding something impressive to do and […]

A Party That’s All About Eating Dessert First

One of my favorite things about the holiday season is that every day is cause for celebration; instead of waiting around for a big milestone to throw a party, there’s a reason to get festive every day between now and New Year’s. In that spirit, we’re raising our glass with Chambord Black Raspberry Liqueur as […]
