Halloween Party with Paperless Post

As many of you might know if you follow my instagram : @thefashioncanvas, I absolutely LOVE throwing parties. I have done everything from backyard BBQ’s, bridal showers, birthday parties, baby showers, tailgates…and of course my favorite, a Halloween pumpkin carving night.

With October coming up in just one short day, I decided to start looking at sending invites for our night and I found so many cute templates on Paperless Post. They have so many different designs for every occasion. And the Halloween designs were on point. I could have chosen between a ghostly gala, a scary skeleton soiree or even a candy filled bash. But because the main theme of the event is pumpkin carving, I knew I wanted to pick a pumpkin themed invite, and went with THIS simple, yet chic design.

If you haven’t used Paperless Post before, you should definitely consider it for your next party. Not only does it save waste by not making you buy expensive invites that you have to mail, but it sends emails and reminders to your guests, to make sure everyone shows up on the big day. And some of their templates are even free to use.

Check back later this week, as I am going to highlight some of the events I have thrown in the past and give you some fun decorating and themed ideas!

Fall Colors and Style Inspiration

I can literally feel Fall is coming…there is a crisp breeze in the morning, the smell of tailgates on Saturday afternoons, the leaves changing in front of us, and the ever drastic changing of my wardrobe into sweaters, scarfs and boots. While I have a ton of Fall fashion, I feel like there is nothing like an excuse for me to pick up a little more. And guess what…Shopbop is having just that sale!

Since Fall is on my brain, that means all the fall colors and styles are as well. Check out some of my favorite finds below. As you can tell, I have a theme going on which includes LOTS of neutrals and animal print.

Trend Spin Linkup – CASUAL WEAR

 

THE CANVAS : 

Shirt : Lululemon ~ Vest : Lululemon (similar) ~ 
Biking Shorts : Amazon~ Hat : Nike ~  
Purse : Bandolier (case // pouch) ~  Earrings : AuRate 

Good morning…I hope everyone is having a great Tuesday and thanks for stopping by today’s Trend Spin Linkup!

Today’s trend is CASUAL WEAR 

While I was up in Sun Valley with my family a few weeks ago, we did a lot of outside activity and exploring. It is such an amazingly beautiful location and it is great to soak up the scenery. We took the tram to the top of the lift and got some great photos of the views. 

For this day of exploring, I decided to wear a lot of my comfy clothes. So I opted for my standard lululemon pieces, my shirt and vest, and then paired it with some “lululemon dupe” biking shorts I found on Amazon. While I don’t mind paying lulu prices, I had heard these shorts were a great buy and a very thick material, and I was pleasantly surprised. They are a need to have in your closet, and the best is that you can pay a more affordable price for this trendy piece. Shop them here! 

Next week’s trend is FALL COLORS

My favorite fall color of this season is Mustard Yellow….what is yours? Whether it is ruby red, brown, beige, evergreen or even navy blue, we want to see those fall colors next week. Think how pretty the linkup will be!

Trend Spin Linkup – SWEATERS

THE CANVAS : 

Sweater : HM
Leggings : Spanx ~ Hat : Stetson ~
Purse : Gucci ~ Sunglasses : Shopbop
Earrings : AuRate ~ Necklace : Amazon 

Good morning…I hope everyone is having a great Tuesday and thanks for stopping by today’s Trend Spin Linkup!

Today’s trend is SWEATERS

Sweaters have to be one of my number 1 staples in my closet! You can throw them on with a pair of leggings, with a pair of skinny jeans or even over a dress. 

Linkup some of your favorite sweaters this week…I need some inspiration for this fall! 

Next week’s trend is CASUAL WEAR

Casual wear used to be when you were working out or being lazy…and now it has become a staple in normal day wear! I throw on casual wear when I am heading to lunch, running errands or even if I want a more laid back brunch look. Typically my casual wear includes leggings, sneakers, and a baseball hat. Lately I have been loving the signature Kim K long biker shorts? Would you rock those? I’ll show you one of the ways I style them next week!
