Whenever I’m in need of some inspiration I know I can always turn to DVF. She has such amazing energy and grace, I can only imagine how amazing her parties must be.

Since today is Fat Tuesday perhaps it’s a little late for party planning but

Spring is right around the corner and her advice is spot on.

A good mix of people and enjoy yourself as well, “act like a guest”. When your guests are relaxed they will enjoy themselves and if something goes wrong they probably wont even notice. My almost 4 year old watched this video with me and when it was over she said “good food and good wine, that’s a good party!” Add to that a relaxed host and interesting guests and you’ve got yourself the makings of a great party.
Cheers!
