INSPIRATIONS
Summer Entertaining As the weather heats up and the days grow longer, summer is the perfect time to take your entertaining outdoors. From backyard barbecues to poolside soirÊes, these stylish events demand equally inspired entertaining. This summer get inspired with some of our favorite regional styles: the casual sophistication of the Southwest, the upscale elegance of the Hamptons and the relaxing ambiance of the Tropics. With the right lighting, drinks and decor, you’ll have no trouble setting the mood on these lazy days and hot summer nights.
