The Inspo: Palm Beach Paradise
From pretty pastel hues to gorgeous views of this waterfront locale, Palm Beach, Florida, is the destination of my dreams. Few places capture the feminine, flirty, fun I envision for a unique Galentine’s Day theme and the fabulous flamingo twist made it all the more ideal. Picturesque poolside respites and awe-inspiring architecture showcase the darling details that make this locale one of a kind.
I’m hardly the first to hold this seaside oasis as my muse—from Slim Aarons to Lilly Pulitzer and Gray Malin. Coastal charm mingles with lighthearted luxe create the perfect blend of rejuvenating splendor that’s as invigorating as it is soothing. So, if like me you don’t have any imminent travel plans, trade in your winter blues and bring Palm Beach pinks to you and your friends.
The Setting: Styling Tips for a Dreamy Tablescape
A Palm Beach Tablescape wouldn’t be complete without a prismatic foundation provided by a linen boasting swoon-worthy pattern. In addition to declaring the color palette, this tablecloth adds a lively flourish for additional accents to play off of. Encircled by bedazzled palms, the placemat lends texture and glamour to the scene. Layer a simple white bamboo-rimmed plate with a stunning striped plate donning the party’s signature shade: PINK! Incorporate a few well-appointed flamingo touches—from hand-embroidered cocktail napkins to feathered figurines. Don’t let it’s name fool you, the fuchsia “place mat” featuring a red appliqué border can play double duty as a napkin when secured by a trio of bamboo rings. Seagrass vases incorporate further texture while a palm taper candle holder infuses a hint of green on the scene. Rose-handled flatware complements the deep pink hue of the tumbler while the champagne coupe boasts a red stem to juxtapose its blush bowl.

The Agenda: From Dinner to Game Night
Make the night memorable with activities that extend well beyond the dinner table. Lead your guests to a game table outfitted in one of these darling covers that transform even the most ordinary card table into a showpiece. Serve up a delightful menu of entertainment options—from Mahjong and Scrabble to playing cards with watercolor depictions of your favorite travels.
Perhaps, you’ll want to pull out a few needlepoint projects—such as this green-and-pink chess board or a game of backgammon atop a pink-and-blue base. Lighting is key and these miniature rechargeable lamps embody both form and function as they put your guests, and their tired eyes, at ease.

The Attire: Dress the Part with These Chic Looks
No theme is complete without a fit check and this night calls for a spectrum of pink hues, pattern aplenty, and woven accessories. My top pick is a toss up between the Tillie Palm Dress in petal pink (I’m a sucker for gingham) with the gold raffia heels and cane mini-bag, or the flora pink mini dress with the white Perola clutch.
