My "Signature Beverage"...Lime Floats. These were very simple to prepare--stir limeade concentrate, vanilla ice cream, and club soda in a pitcher. Absolutely delicious and refreshing on a hot summer evening!
Seafood dip (from Publix Greenwise) and Carr's crackers...
Lime floats...served in my finest Coastal Crystal--garnished with a lime slice and the de rigueur umbrella straw!
Coastal cocktail napkins...
The table was set using coastal themed tableware...
The centerpiece...purchased last summer at SteinMart last summer.
The placesetting...the placemats and napkins were purchased last summer from Bed Bath and Beyond. The darling fish-y place card holders and the andriodike chair napkin rings were purchased at a little store in Naples, Florida last summer. (Sorry y'all, I cannot remember the name.) Of course, the place cards also have a coastal theme and I hot-glued small shells onto the white flatware. The coastal themed melamine plates and tumblers were purchased at HomeGoods last summer.
I just love the adnriodike chairs as the napkins rings...
These placecards are perfect for the setting...
Tropical iced tea was served...I love this flavor of tea--it's the same tea they serve at The Cheesecake Factory.
A healthy and delicious meal of grilled cajun tilapia, grilled squash & brussel sprouts, and a mixed green salad...
Followed by a decadent dessert...Key Lime Pie!!!
Get your party favors y'all!!! These Key Lime Straws were the perfect take-home gift for my guests visiting from Broward County.
Miss Coco was happy as usual to get dressed up and receive guests! "Here's What She Wore." Her little white scarf (custom-made by LWhelanDesigns) was trimmed in a blue Lilly-fied fabric and blue poms. Of course, it's monogrammed just for her. Her top knot was adorned with a light blue ribbon.
I kept it very casual for the evening..."Here's What I Wore." The khaki skirt is from Tar-jay, and the white monogrammed tee shirt is from Periwinkle in Delray Beach, Florida. The light blue cardigan is by Lilly as are the light blue thong sandals. I'm also wearing a light blue and yellow striped ribbon belt from CK Bradley.
The must-have monogrammed tee shirts are available online at Periwinkle of Delray Beach, Florida.
Thank you for visiting with me today. I must say that I have been a very bad blogging friend lately. I'm super behind with everything!!! I apologize for not getting out to visit y'all and hope that I get caught up...one day!!!
