A Party fit for a Princess.....<br />

Christmas in Australia also equals summer and that means a hectic time between October and December for us in the events industry.<br />
<br />
Now with a bit of a quiet January I am happy to sit down and share some of my parties that I planned and styled during that crazy time. Starting with a beautiful 1st birthday/little girl's christening.<br />
<br />
I was contacted by the <a href="http://blackburne.com.au/" target="_blank">Blackburne's</a> as they were keen on hosting a special 1st birthday in the park down by the river in one of Perth's most tranquil spots, for their special girl. Fortunately, the beautiful spot picked by my client consisted of some beautiful big trees and this was then to be the focal set up point of my buffet and food tables.<br />
<br />
The trees gave me the inspiration to incorporate a woodlands theme and my client requested a pink princess theme. Balloons supplied by <a href="http://www.shopnowhq.com.au/" target="_blank">Shop now HQ</a>. <br />

It's one of my favourite stations to style as I always manage to create something different each time. With it being close to Christmas I decided to put together a few quick tips on how to style your own. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uuKr7_oO_LA/VG3BQXBNKYI/AAAAAAAAA4Y/ykvDZXVGiBY/s1600/glasspot%2Bcopie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uuKr7_oO_LA/VG3BQXBNKYI/AAAAAAAAA4Y/ykvDZXVGiBY/s1600/glasspot%2Bcopie.jpg" height="217" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
There are some gorgeous dispensers on the market. Choose from French Provincial, rustic, barrel, basket, large or small. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xNDqK-jjkAw/VG3BglcVa1I/AAAAAAAAA4g/ABYK-W4-zfI/s1600/dispenser%2Bfb%2Bsize.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xNDqK-jjkAw/VG3BglcVa1I/AAAAAAAAA4g/ABYK-W4-zfI/s1600/dispenser%2Bfb%2Bsize.jpg" height="320" width="173" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Of course the hire option is great when you want to create something unique and allows you to get really creative whilst wowing your guests. You can add colour to your dispensers or get fancy and fruity. For instance pink lemonade for little girl's party, or blue juice if you dare for a frozen party, even water is made fun by adding fruits.<br />
<br />
You can add some interesting props to the table or why not consider setting up on a vintage table. The options are endless.<br />
<br />
Use a variety of drink vessels, glassware, from acrylic to mason jars to mini milk bottles. You may like to think about your straw colour and even some party printable or name tags for each guest. <br />
<br />
Now you're almost done. Don't forget the linen, even just a small lace placed on the table can really help style your station.<br />
<br />
<br />

That is the questionWould you hire a stylist or party planner?<br />
<br />
There seems to be two camps and money is a huge consideration. Once you factor in cakes, food, party entertainer etc.<br />
<br />
But here's what I've come to realise, yes hiring someone can be an expensive exercise but believe me, we party planners/stylists earn every penny of our money and are sometimes left with very little profit. I don't mean to sound negative, I just want to make people outside of the industry understand the value of enlisting a planner.<br />
<br />
I'll start, therefore, with the obvious benefits, (which I'm sure you already know anyhow):<br />
-You save time!!<br />
Captain Obvious or what? I hear you shout. Seriously though, there are so many hours involved at craft shops, on the internet, painstakingly tackling glue guns and labels into the hours of the night. Making sure bows are tied to perfection, putting craft flat packs together, you get the idea. The hours a stylist puts into your party are normally not billable (think how many hours that amounts to? Many many late nights let me assure you). We generally just bill our time for the work setting up on the day. Such is the nature of this beast.<br />
<br />
-You don't have to store anything!!<br />
That's my biggest selling point really. As silly as it may sound, there can be nothing worse than spending your hard earned dinero on props which quite frankly may never see the light of day and where do you put all this stuff afterwards? Gumtree or Ebay probably have that answer.<br />
(Unless like us you like storing tea-cups and cake stands in obscure places around your house!!)<br />
-Style<br />
Stands to reason that your stylist would have some beautiful items and fabulous taste. Not to say you don't but think about it, to put a styled buffet table together from scratch to suit a theme you require table linen, runners to match, stands, jars, ribbons..the list is endless. Your planner/stylist over the years has collected enough to style something beautiful. Experience in the field and a knowledge of colour palettes, food décor and quantities can really be very beneficial.<br />
<br />
-You get to relax a bit and perhaps focus on other elements of the party. Making sure you and your venue is presentable for example.<br />
<br />
<br />
In a nutshell, I would say it just saves you a headache. I have heard many a mum say, "it's a labour of love" after planning their own parties.<br />
<br />
Our best customers, have undoubtedly been the 'here's my date' you get on with it and invoice me afterwards ones but we recognise that not everyone has this type of budget. of course, but please do not devalue the work. Doing it yourself nicely costs a fortune and you can not put a price on the time you'll devote to the cause.<br />
<br />
The other benefits?<br />
-Well tidying up for one, your stylist can deliver and pack away (this depends what you've worked out of course) saving you cleaning time.<br />
-Mentioned above, hours and hours of prep, you don't have to spend hours liaising with a graphic designer organising printables, find the right card, labels to print on or take to a printers. Or nip in and out and in and out and in again to craft stores such as Spotlight.<br />
-The hard work has been done. Your stylist has spent hours finding quality products and catering and no doubt done some hard negotiating in the process. You have the benefit of having a choice of the best suppliers, many of which won't deal with the public and you really can leave us to it. <br />
<br />
<br />
If you hire a planner or stylist, I would strongly recommend spending a bit more and asking them to take care of the entire event, invitations, goodie bags, food, styling, all of it...leaving you to kick back and enjoy the party!!!<br />
<br />
In summary, why wouldn't you hire one? :-)<br />

Engagement party styling</h3>
<br />
It was with great pleasure that Petite Posh Parties were asked to style the engagement party of Hayley and Steve Tobin late last year. In consultation with Hayley, we were able to transform their already amazing beach front apartment, into a romantic venue. It was the small detail of this party which bought the large and spread out space together.<br />
<br />
<strong>We worked</strong> around our colour theme (chosen by Hayley) of red and pink. Katherine and I adore hearts and where better to work them into a function than a romantic engagement party, we were able to choose an array of hearts from our collection. This allowed us to bring three theme elements together (romantic, colour and Christmas). Being a week away from Christmas we had to add some festive décor into the mix.<br />
<br />
<strong>The ceiling beams</strong> were the ideal spot to hang our gorgeous tulle pom poms (yes you guessed it, red, white and pink!) They looked simply stunning in this space which back dropped onto a beautiful sunset view (yes it's Western Australia, our beaches have some of the best sunsets in the world).<br />
<br />
<strong>Our focal point</strong> was the small lolly table, this was at the right height for the children (who may have over indulged just a little on our red and silver heart chocolates and red jelly beans!) We also placed a beautiful rustic birdcage on the table and again the red pegs and envelopes tied into the colour scheme beautifully.<br />
<br />
Hayley, also had a bare wall that she wanted decorated, so Katherine and I used a wall decal and gifted this to the couple. Our charming silver Christmas branches were adorned with beautiful romantic poetry to match. <br />
<br />
<strong>Our red carpet</strong> made a grand entrance downstairs, where couples were asked to watch a beautiful display of fire-eating/dancing. It was a warm balmy evening. Hayley and Steve also kept their guests entertained with a psychic reader and a DJ. <br />
<br />
The Paella man stationed outside the front entrance ensured all the guests were well fed and this was accompanied by a beautiful Sparkling from the couple's Margaret River vineyard, <a href="http://www.aravinaestate.com/" target="_blank">Aravina Estate</a>.<br />
<br />
I'll be sure to post about the gorgeous wedding I had the honour of attending, in the meantime you can view photos on the Style me Pretty blog, <a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/2014/04/16/aravina-estate/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

Children's party hire (Perth)</h2>
<br />
Time to talk a bit more about some of our fabulous party hire items.<br />
<br />
I can't help but get excited about some of the products Katherine and I have sourced over the past year. Based on that, this blog post will not be too wordy but simply show you some of our products and how you can put them together (affordably) to make your kids party an elegant and memorable event.<br />
<br />
All of our hire products are available individually or in <a href="http://www.petiteposhparties.com.au/" target="_blank">packages</a>. <br />
<br />
<h4>
Mini Children's Tables and tablecloth</h4>
1. It stands to reason that your mini guests won't feel too comfortable sitting at a big table, these tables are readily available in most hardware stores if you do choose to purchase. Personally, I don't have the storage so hiring is a great option. Ours adjust to three heights but are not complete without our signature white tablecloth and table runner (you can choose your own table runners to suit your theme). <br />

Children's mini ghost chair</h4>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. Again, it stands to reason that your 'petite' guests will need 'petite' chairs. Our children's ghost chairs are stunning and can be used for either boys or girl's parties. If you are putting an event together and can not get hold of this particular chair, Ikea have some great stock of chairs, and I'm sure if you ask around you can borrow lots of different kids stools, sometimes the mix and match options look can be very effective, think vintage!! However, if you do that, we recommend a very simple setting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
(As you can see in this photo, you can tie goodie bags, ribbons or anything to the ghost chairs to match your theme).</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<h4 class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Glassware and cake stands</h4>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So now you have your setting almost complete. I know there are many gorgeous products on the market that fall under the glassware and cake stand category; Once more you may not wish to spend the money or to store the goods. The hire option allows you to a) use products that you may not usually purchase yourself due to cost b) use products that suit the colour or theme of your party c) use products that suit the food you have chosen to serve.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We have lots of gorgeous products available to choose from...I couldn't possibly post all the photos here, however, I hope this gives you a really good idea.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: black;">(Acrylic cocktail, wine, champagne glasses. We love this look and so do the children and mummies. Unbreakable glass!!)</span></div>

<br />
Here in Perth, kids parties are certainly a big thing. With my daughters, aged 4 & 6, we average about 4 parties a month. Pretty crazy. Obviously, doing what I do, I am a big advocate of styling beautiful kids parties, but that being said I simply think the decision is up to the family. Be it a trampolining or ice-skating or bowling party with a select few or a lavish at-home affair for the school year peers, family, neighbours, close friends, the choice is individual and not to be judged either way. Yes, we all do it!!! I have heard all sorts of remarks from, 'is this party for the kids or the parents?' To 'I would only serve healthy food?' From 'I would never spend that amount on a 4year old's cake' to 'she really should not have attempted to bake'. The judgements are quite something else.<br />
<br />
Personally, we choose to have a party where we want to double the occassion with a get-together with those we don't always get a chance to see. My husband and I love to keep the alcohol flowing, the kid's entertained and the kids table set beautifully. Don't get me wrong, we have also had very very small affairs where my then 5 year old chose just 1 friend to go on a day trip with. It just depends on our budget and mood for that year. <br />
<br />
Whatever you decide, keep in mind, no two parties will ever be alike as will no two hosts. It is an honour to be asked to celebrate in any family occassion, respect it, don't upset the host, don't over indulge, do bring a present.....and lastly? Don't judge the event, just enjoy it.<br />
<br />

We were pretty adamant that for this year's birthday we would turn the house into 'Wonderland' and my little Alice would tell all her guests to come dressed up as their favourite Mad Hatters or Queen of Hearts. That idea is still in my head. I had sourced and even bought some amazing products.<br />
<em>Here are some ideas for you in case you decide to host an Alice Party.</em> <em>Any of these items are easily found by doing a Google search.</em> <br />
<br />
*Giant Playing Cards to hang around the house/venue.<br />
*Eat me tags or food <br />
*Mad Hatter Party Hats<br />
*Alice In Wonderland Tutu for the party girl<br />
*Tic Toc biscuits as tea cups (see below) <br />

<strong><em>Back to the Breakfast at Tiffany's Birthday (I think I got distracted there....!)</em></strong><br />
<strong><em></em></strong><br />
<strong><em></em></strong><br />
However, my soon to be 6 year old had other ideas. I was actually fairly surprised when she said 'mummy, I want to dress up like her..' she was at the time, looking at a birthday card given to my then German aupair. I looked and saw she was not speaking about Alice or any Disney character to my surprise but in fact the late and great Audrey Hepburn. Sometimes inspiration can come from the most bizarre places. So the idea to host a Breakfast at Tiffany's birthday party took off. We already had a few items that I knew straight away that I could use. So Katherine and I set about creating the event.<br />
In the end I had so many photos that I have just posted a few here to help you pla your Tiffany's party. <br />
<br />
Some other elements of the party included:<br />
*We asked all the little girl's to come dressed up in their favourite little party frocks and adorn some costume pearls <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our homemade heart shaped coockies.</div>

Sometimes, the finer details that make a party can be painstakingly time consuming. Always a good idea to leave yourself plenty of time to get creative. However, it's these details that sets your parties apart, and the guests adore such details.<br />
<br />
Inside each of these boxes were small rings for the girls to wear. I'd purchased them at <a href="http://www.lovisa.com.au/" target="_blank">Lovisa</a>. The girls also enjoyed wearing the big black sunglasses and the fake pearls.<br />

Almost!...Unfortunately, this stand-a-lone city seems too far for so many of those leading High Street stores to grace us with their fashion presence.<br />
<br />
So what are we missing? I hear you ask. Well below are those labels that I really am missing from the UK and some stunning outfits to keep you inspired. Thank goodness for the internet. Keeping the change in season in mind...let's keep an eye out for the sales as most places now deliver..happy days!<br />

Now I know Zara has a store in Melbourne and Sydney and I keep hearing it will be coming to Perth soon, but as yet it has not arrived. Here are some of my current faves. I proudly own quite a number of Zara outfits. I have to say, my credit card really got a battering in the store in Northern Spain when I visited last. There were so many pieces on <a href="http://www.zara.com.uk/" target="_blank">their website</a> currently. The prices even after conversion are very exciting. <br />

Sometimes in our job we get asked to <a href="http://www.petiteposhparties.com.au/" target="_blank">theme a party </a>for someone with a special story. This one was no exception. My favourite jobs are the ones where our clients simply give us a budget and say 'go for it - do what you do best'. That was exactly the case with this party, so Katherine and I were able to get creative.<br />
<br />
So our brief...it's a boy, we want something stylish and sophisticated and we want a lolly bar!<br />
<br />
"Your wish is our command" we said :-)<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I wanted to write this blog on the one hand as an
outlet for my personal creativity, to offer a place where fellow fashionistas and
party stylists could come together and to provide inspiration with words,
sayings and photos. On the other hand it enables me to write about some of
the parties we have been involved in and continue to be involved in. I also find
more and more that I am enjoying advising clients and our facebook likers on
various entertaining elements so finally this is a chance to put that
information together for you. I hope you enjoy this styling blog as much as I
will putting it together.</span></span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Baby showers were not around when I
was living in the UK, but here in Australia, I was amazed at their
popularity. I hear they are now increasingly common in the UK too.
If you know of a special some one that is pregnant and you would like to plan
their baby shower but want to make the event sophisticated. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I've put together this guide.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<em><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Chat about the planned event with the 'mother to be'</span></em><o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It maybe is not such a great time for a surprise party. You can however,
keep some of the details of the event to yourself until the day. It's a good
idea to discuss some dates and get some idea of what the expectant mother would
like, whether it be a high tea, and informal lunch, a buffet or a
breakfast as well as who is on her guest list so as to avoid upsetting
anybody.</span> <o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<em><span style="color: #674ea7;">It's a good idea to enlist some help</span></em><o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">If you are hosting the occasion at home, you may wish to contact a
catering company, <a href="http://www.petiteposhparties.com.au/" target="_blank">a party stylist</a> or hire company depending on the size of your event.
If you are working on a smaller budget, you may wish to delegate some of the
jobs to mutual friends. In Australia, it is quite common for friends to bring a
platter. Make sure you know what everyone is planning on making or
bringing so that there is a nice variety and always cater for allergies
and dietary requirements.</span> <o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<em><span style="color: #674ea7;">Alcohol<o:p></o:p></span></em><br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RupEdAJCaG4/U4QBfMcHaLI/AAAAAAAAAIg/cGb8Q1IcD-Y/s1600/ready+to+pop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RupEdAJCaG4/U4QBfMcHaLI/AAAAAAAAAIg/cGb8Q1IcD-Y/s1600/ready+to+pop.jpg" height="263" width="320" /></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">No babyshower is complete without <a href="http://www.veuve-cliquot.com/" target="_blank">Champagne</a>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To keep costs down, you could ask the guests
to contribute a bottle or stick to a nice sparkling. It helps to set the
ambience and gets everyone in the mood. It's always a great idea to raise your glass in wishing the new mother good luck.</span> <br />
<br />
<em><span style="color: #674ea7;">Babyshower games<o:p></o:p></span></em><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">…should be embraced. There is quite a selection available on the
<a href="http://blog.thebump.com/2013/04/24/5-fresh-baby-shower-game-ideas-that-put-a-creative-spin-on-the-old-classics/" target="_blank">internet</a>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You should keep the games
classy and avoid embarrassing any guests or the expectant mother.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The chosen games, should of course, be baby
related. You’ll find that the guests will thoroughly enjoy all the games.</span> <br />

<em><span style="color: #674ea7;">Gifts<o:p></o:p></span></em><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><a href="http://www.davidjones.com.au/Store-Services/Gift/Nursery-list" target="_blank">Gift registries</a> are increasingly popular or the mother may simply wish
give an idea of what is needed. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However,
any present will no doubt be greatly appreciated. The baby often receives so
much that is quite often a nice idea for a small group to club together and
buy treat the expectant mother. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is
the norm for the gifts to be opened during the shower, however, this can quite
often be quite tedious for the guests and overwhelming for the mother depending
on the number of presents, if this is the case, it may be worth splitting the
present opening into two sections, after a toast and again at the end of the
event.</span><br />
<br />
<em><span style="color: #674ea7;">Thank you cards<o:p></o:p></span></em><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Most people go to somewhat effort to choose a welcoming gift for the new
baby. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a nice idea to have someone keep a
record of the gifts received and who sent them so that the recipient/s may send out
a thank you card to her guests.</span> <o:p></o:p><br />

In our next post we will be blogging some of our recent baby showers with
some ideas to help you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I welcome any
comments below.<br />
<br />
<em>The thing I'd like to know is, do you think one babyshower for the firstborn is adequate? Or is it acceptable to have a babyshower for each baby?</em><br />

I wanted to create a page where I could update some fashion styling inspiration. Week by week I will create a theme and add my current selection and web links of where the items can be purchased. This week I have chosen three dresses from the theme <em>THE CUT OUT COCKTAIL DRESS.</em> Three dresses in three price ranges. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I simply love metallic and cut out dresses!</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So when I came across this dress, which is perhaps a little on the pricey side, I was in love!!! I think this dress would be a talking point, don't you?</div>
