The 3rd Annual Pink the Town Peony Party

On June 22, 2016

I can’t believe it’s my 3rd time hosting my annual Pink the Town Peony Party! I’ve had so much fun planning these events and coming up with new ideas each year.

At the 1st Annual Peony Party we created floral arrangements and drank peony tea. At the 2nd Annual Peony Party we made peony flowers out of icing and had a peony photo booth.

This past Friday, we celebrated the 3rd Annual Peony party at Le Dolci Cupcakes & Cakes in Toronto.

Check out all of the details below!

The event started with a floral workshop. Flower Maiden taught us all how to create beautiful overflowing peony flower arrangements.

Le Dolci walked us through a mini naked cake baking workshop.

Special thanks to the amazing Cecile Lau Calligraphy who made name tags for all guests and custom calligraphy signs! If you ever need professional calligraphy done, she is definitely the girl to call. Her work is always stunning.

Sekai Nail & Beauty Bar treated guests to some gorgeous peony nail art. You can visit them anytime at their 1069 College St. location and they just opened a brand new location at 968 Queen St. West!

We even had a wine sampling courtesy of Nugan Estate, Two Oceans and Saint Clair Family Estates. You truly can’t go wrong with any of these wine’s below. They were all so delicious, sweet and refreshing. Everyone devoured the wine so fast, I didn’t even get a shot of the full bottles!

All guests took home goodies from L’Occitane & Cherrypick! Cherrypick gifted guests with their pretty double stud earrings and L’Occitane gave two products from their peony line. You have to smell these peony products!

I had to wear my peony dress for the occasion! You can shop this dress HERE.

Thanks to all of the lovely ladies who joined us! It was such a perfect girls night and the results were amazing! I still can’t believe I made the cake below!

Stay tuned for peony season next year for the 4th Annual Peony Party! I can’t wait!

Polkadots & Pink Balloons

This post literally incorporates all of my favourite things: Peonies, polkadots and pink balloons!

I knew I had to do something extra special for this skirt. It’s just too cute! I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to pair with it, but I found that the skirt sits high enough to wear with a crop top and not have my stomach showing.

I’m also loving that peony season is now in full swing! I have to concentrate extra hard when I’m driving these days because I keep wanting to just check out the peonies in everyone’s gardens while I’m driving by. It really takes willpower to keep my eyes on the road and off the pretty peonies! This Friday is my 3rd Annual Peony Party and I couldn’t be more excited!

If you see any items you like below, check out the shopping details at the end of the post! And let me just end by saying that maneuvering this many big balloons is no easy task. Luckily it wasn’t windy, because I seriously felt like I may take off.

OPI SoftShades 2016 Collection

Pastel nail polishes are my jam. OPI Mod About You has always been my go to shade. So, when the new OPI SoftShades collection landed on my doorstep I couldn’t wait to try them all out. The lineup includes 6 new pastel shades that come in pink, white, yellow, blue, green and purple.

Have you ever worn yellow nail polish? I’m still not sure how I feel about it. But, I do like the pastel shade from this collection.

My fav new shade is of course the pink. You need about 3 coats, but the end result is really pretty.

I also adore white nails in the summer. White ensures that everything you wear still matches your nails. I’ve even worn white on my toe nails and the result is the same. Super cute!

Check out the swatches below and let me know if you have a favourite from the line.

Springtime Bows

If something has a bow on it, I’m about 99% more likely to buy it. They are just too cute to resist. It was hard to pass by this hat without immediately needing to purchase it. It’s just the most perfect hat for summer days spent in the park, or on my terrace or at the beach. I’ll be finding any excuse to wear it this summer.

Also, I’m absolutely obsessed with shirt dresses this season. I love the way they fit almost any occasion. They are one of the easiest items to dress up or dress down. Pair with a flat sandal, a hat and a cross body bag and you’ve got a casual weekend look. Pair with a statement necklace, heels and a clutch and you’ve got the perfect evening look. They are so versatile and comfy. I have one in pink and then recently got this one in blue. I love the way it dips down at the back, giving it that extra something special. The tie around the waist is nice and thick so you can create different looks with it. Tie it in the back, or to the side or at the front. You can do a pretty bow or just knot it and leave it hanging down. I love the effortlessness of this dress.
