Fall hosting essentials: What to wear and what to bring!🍁

Special Anthropologie finds, just for you

Lately, I’ve been hearing from many of you asking what to wear for your upcoming festivities: happy hour, girlfriends over for wine, date night, hosting friends at home, holiday parties, the list goes on and on. Even I’m trying to figure out my outfits (!!), and since doing “blog research” is part of my job, I have a few ideas for you! Today’s post is about what to wear to a fun event or on a night out (or in), a few ideas on hostess gifts, and some special home and tabletop finds for easy entertaining.

Let me just say this: I LOVE Anthropologie! We’re lucky to have a big beautiful store right here in Portland — I’d say I go at least once a week to see what’s new. They kind of have it all: stylish dresses that are perfect for fall events, cool home accessories that are ideal for entertaining, and the BEST gift ideas! Their new fall apparel collections incorporate everything you need to wear to any event: sweaters, denim, pretty tops and dresses, shoes and jewelry. And remember, creating inviting spaces is easy if you have a few things that make all the difference, like great dĂŠcor, tabletop, hosting and dining items. Anthropologie has great selections of these that are all cost effective, simple and festive!

I hope you find a few things that will inspire you to prepare for a happy fall season!
