  • Leopard print adds style, color and life to your winter wardrobe.
  • Treat yourself – girls night in is never complete without a bottle of red and a bite of something sweet.
  • Bar cart styling is a hot topic these days. Have some fun arranging glassware, snacks and cute cocktail napkins for your next soiree.
  • Think outside the box with your DIY décor and don’t be afraid to get quirky. Paper & Stich provides great inspiration with these pie crust name tags.
  • It’s a given - cheese and wine go hand-in-hand. Next time you’re drinking Seven Daughter’s Chardonnay, pair it with a softer cheese like goat or brie.

Don’t Drop the Good Times with the Temperature

From wardrobe selection and innovative recipes to DIY projects and entertaining tips, below are seven suggestions on how women can brighten up their lives this winter:

  1. Add a pop of print. Jacey Duprie of Damsel In Dior says a splash of leopard can instantly warm up any outfit. Treat leopard print as a neutral for your autumn and winter wardrobe.
  2. Wine is for more than just drinking. ‘Tis the season for comfort food, so don’t hold back. Melissa Coleman of Fauxmartha has a seasonal mini-pot pie recipe, paired with Seven Daughters’ Crisp White Blend, that’s so worth the effort.
  3. Style your bar cart. Every gal needs a bar cart, so take a cue from Amanda Holstein, voice behind Advice From a 20 Something, and style with colorful flowers, frames, knick-knacks and, of course, your favorite wine.
  4. Have a go-to seasonal cocktail recipe for all occasions. Impress your friends and family with Damsel’s Spiced Sangria. The easy-to-follow recipe can be made in large batches and is perfect for holiday parties.
  5. Wine and cheese education, please. You don't need a special occasion to have girlfriends over for a night of good food and wine.  Brittni Melholf of Paper & Stitch suggests doing a bit of research and making informed wine and cheese pairing suggestions to kick off the night. Oh, and to always end a dinner party with pie.
  6. Get quirky with DIY décor. To make your girls night unique, follow Brittni’s lead and create edible, out-of-the-box pie crust place settings. They’re easy, cute and memorable.
  7. Create your own winter soundtrack. Our very own Lauren Nelson suggests curating a personal playlist to keep spirits high all winter long. Switch it up by adding new songs every other week to keep things fresh.
