Party Planning

Jake and I are in the midst of major planning for our Great Gatsby Garden Party next month. Please pass along any suggestions you might have to make it more amazing!
*I just ordered this hat from Etsy. Love!
*I bought this dress, in mauve, from Zara. I will wear the tie below my hips to give the illusion of a drop-waist. Now I just need to find some gloves!

  1. Love the dress and hat. Shoes? I think it is time to re-read The Great Gatsby. I imagine sparkling lights, coctails, long cigarette holders (ugh!)...

  2. You 2 are so inventive. It sounds like you will have a lovely party and I insist that you take many pictures. I love seeing your posts. You will look DIVINE in that hat. Do you ever take videos?

  3. Yes, pictures! I think you might need a big loud convertible motorcar. And a sweet little clutch or tiny handbag of some kind. Silk stockings? Silver cigarette case? Wow, wish I could come! xo

  4. Great suggestions! I am the biggest dork but I got really excited when I realized Jake has Gatsby initials, JG, so I already ordered monogramed coasters and little seating cards that I am going to use for the food and drinks. This is an amazing website for all of your party planning needs:
