6 tips on how to choose the prefect dress for prom or wedding

The “prom dress” has the same cut and silhouette as the bridal gown. The only difference in the prom frock is its fabric; it must be light, flowing, and form-fitting. While brides wear white for purity, innocence, and virginity, teens don wear white because it doesn’t show up well on camera.

4 Tips to Hosting a Garden Tea Party

The mention of a garden tea party triggers many things in people’s minds. Do you think of certain scenes from Alice in Wonderland, blue-haired ladies, the British gentry, pinky fingers floating in air or Victorian décor? Since the old days, tea parties are elegant affairs held in the late afternoons. However, customs have changed over the years and a tea party can start as early as mid-day.

Originally intended to entertain business clients, biscuits or scones, savory, bite-size sandwiches, sweets and, of course, a good tea pot, are typical of tea parties. Unlike dinner parties, tea parties aren’t involving. Whether you’re planning a retirement, baby shower, birthday or bridal party, or just organizing a casual session with friends, you won’t go wrong with a tea party.

How to Eat Christmas Dinner in Summer?

Love Christmas? Why not try making Christmas dinner in summer? Recently, you may have seen on Twitter or Facebook a trend of people sharing Christmas in July which reminded me that we’re over halfway through the year and so Christmas is not that far off now! It is always a holiday I look forward to because it is a day that is usually filled with laughter with families. Anyway, I am going to give a twist to this Christmas dinner I made. It is a kind of Asian fusion meal with a summer twist!

When you think about Christmas, you will think about Turkey! So sticking with tradition, I am using Turkey meat. However, that’s where the similarities end as I wanted to use my Asian background to make it a fusion between the two cultures.

Frexienet Cocktail Party

Last year, I wrote a post about celebrating the little things for Freixenet and won a mixologist party. So last week was my birthday and I invited a few of my friends over for my cocktail party. It also tied in nicely with the blog I wrote not long ago about how I am going to plan my cocktail party. Do check them out!

The bartender, Luke came an hour early to set up his cocktail table before we started the party. I was amazed how he managed to set up his counter so quickly and neatly. He had plenty of supplies and even had a cocktail menu!
