We couldn’t help but swoon over Layla Grayce co-founder Tiffany Harris and her husband Tom’s Great Gatsby-themed first birthday party for their twins, Kirra and Cole. A longtime admirer of all things art deco and 1920s, Tiffany dreamed of marking the memorable year with the twins in high style with friends and family [...]
We know a lot goes into planning your child’s birthday bash—the theme, the food, the cake, entertainment and favors, but let’s not forget the outfit! We encourage parents to go that extra mile to find the perfect, coordinating outfit that complements the party decor. Our go-to place is Old Navy. Easy to shop in-store or [...]
Are you having trouble picking the perfect theme for your baby’s first birthday? Try using a great color palette to pull your party together for a great effect without a “traditional theme.”
While thinking about design, our first thoughts traditionally lean towards those things that are tangible like furniture or textiles. However, for me, the holiday season has always been about that cozy feeling we get in the glow of Christmas lights, amidst the glimmer of tinsel.

Little boys love to dig, and what better theme than a dinosaur party for them to get their dig on! We recently designed a preppy version for a sweet vendor of ours Michelle of Sweet Threads Clothing Co. and her little man, Reid. Wide stripes and tone-on-tone polka dots set the stage for this classic [...]
One of the most popular boy-themed baby showers is the “Ahoy It’s a Boy” theme. Think preppy meets nautical with a Ralph Lauren twist. We used classic colors in navy and red, and I like popping in powder blue and yellow accents. I love using vintage pieces I have found at flea markets or have [...]
At the beginning of summer we hosted a themed playdate for our little one and her friends. There are so many funny ideas to transform an ordinary playdate into a fun activity-filled get together. First pick a theme. We decided on a lemonade stand playdate since it was beginning to get hot here in Southern [...]
It’s that time of year! I love the summer months. Not only is it my family’s (yes all of us!) birthday season, it’s also time for spending beautiful weekends by the pool with family and friends. To get you in the mood, I want to share some essentials for a pool party playdate that the [...]
