Party Inspiration for Paperless Post

Hello There!

Was contacted by the lovely Katie from Paperless post to do an inspiration post for a party. Paperless post are a great online website to create the perfect invitations for either a Birthday, Weddings, Baby Showers and any other occasion that needs catering for. There are so many great online designs or you can customize your own invitation. You can also choose the type of paper like embossing, engraving etc. CLICK HERE to have a look at their website. You won`t be disappointed. :)

When I was asked to create an inspiration post for a party, I had so many ideas. So I choose to pick a party I would love myself. Creating that perfect Girls Night In essentially but with a party twist. Perfect if you want a BBQ or celebrating your Birthday or Hen during the summer months. 

"Morocco"

I really love the colours & decor of Moroccan themed items. So I thought it might be perfect. The colours are perfect for an early or late summer party. It really gives you that warm feeling even when the weather isnt great outside.

Colour Palette:

The colour palette I just love. The combination of light and bright pinks, peaches, yellows, oranges, purples and golds. Their is something really indulgent about the colours and the fact they all complement each other. Through patterns and block colouring you could fit all colours into one item.  

Decor.

Decor is so vast. Starting with textures and materials, silk and satin comes to mind along with sequin details. Whether you are drapping the fabrics over chair or tables the vibrant colours really bring in warmth. Combining pinks, golds and oranges in different patterns is a great way to break up block colours and also adding more demension. 

Lanterns are another part of the decor. I love them and i have a few scattered around my room as I love the look. You can just focus on the pattern itself or get some with coloured glass that fits your themed colours.  I think I will stop typing and just allow you to enjot the patterns and colours.:) I really think it brings it all together. 

If you cannot afford to get new lanterns, then DIY is great. Get a mason jar or jam jar, glass painting items, which you can get in any art shop. And design your own. It something worth while and something that you can get the look without splashing out. But still gives you the right look. 

I am so annoyed I have no event to plan so I can use this theme. But when looking into your invitation. Maybe look at the colours so pick 3. Maybe a background colour in Pink with a pattern in gold and writing in purple. The colour combo is endless. Take inspiration from either cushions or lanterns or fabrics to tie in your look. 

I think it would make a great girly night for Hens, Birthdays etc.. 

I would love to know if you try this or if you have, i would love to see some pictures.

I would recommend looking up Paperless Post. They will cater to your desired theme and needs. Price is also great value.  So CHECK THEM OUT!!!

At the Races, 2015

Hey Dolls,

So for me as a Galwegian, the Galway races are a major point on anyone's calendar. So it has got me thinking about the style and putting together some inspiration for all you ladies wanting to attend "LADIES DAY".

I myself am hoping to attend this year, and cannot wait to see the fashion-and hoping there will be NO RAIN!!!!

I browsed pintrest and came across some styles I love!!

"Patterns"....

There are so many patterns on trend this year, but the two I love are simple and a nod to different colours trends also.

Colour Drop

This has a flowy kimono colour drop dress which I love. I love the neon pops of colour aswell. I think for the mid summer its a great girly  look. 

Floral

Using Miranda Kerr`s style as an example I love yellow this year and with floral print, you can not go wrong. With simple accessories its a classy and elegant look, with out it being boring, 

"VINTAGE"...

Navy

Navy again is very timeless and if you are not sure what colours suit you, navy is always a winner in my book. This one i pulled from pintrest again and I love the blouse and polka dot skirt, I feel its a 1940`s look, which i love.

Garden Rose

This is truly vintage. To me very elegant English rose. Because white and lace are in this year I think giving it a twist with a vintage nod looks beautiful. Teamed with a headpiece that matches the trend or era will make it pop, here we have a floppy bonnet and i think it works, with lace gloves and you will have nailed it!

"SKIRTS"....

Okay, for me I have left the best for last. I am in love <3 with balloon midi skirts! I think they are so versatile! Picking the right skirt and then teaming it with a variety of tops/blouses to dress it up and then some strappy heels are the perfect combo. 

Above I have just given an example of block, neon, pattern colours and textures from silk, waffle etc. 

Remember the skies the limit at the races, choose that head piece that complements the outfit you have choosen and prepare for the weather with an umbrella or coat! Irish weather is Summer one minute and Winter the next! :)

Are you going to the races? What style will you be rocking?

If you like this post and have an suggestions on future posts, let me know.
