PrettyLittleThing is starting to incorporate a more subtle side of the brand, slowly introducing more neutral pinks, nudes, and creams. To celebrate International Women’s Day, Karen Civil hosted her closest friends for a bohemian-styled picnic at the picturesque Santa Monica beach. We recreated a pin that we loved on Pinterest with A-frames and customized it to make it our own!

Two days of fun on the beach were planned for the very special PrettyLittleThing x International Women’s Day Picnic! It was an honor to arrange this incredible event for an amazing sunny day celebrating boss babes. We chose Lucky Graze charcuterie boards to provide a variety of delicious cheeses, meats, nuts, and fruits for guests to nosh on throughout the fete. Yummy cupcakes from Vanilla Bake Shop were also provided to help satiate everyone’s sweet tooth. Beautiful seating cards with personalized cartoon-like portraits of each guest were hand-crafted by Brittanie Ortiz.

Wife of the Party and team built custom wooden A-frames and tables that were kept understated to keep in theme with the organic, bohemian vibe. Matte balloons in shades of tan, peach, and slate grey were crafted into arches and complemented with pampas grass, greenery, and dried florals. Additional collections of verdure along with macrame “chandeliers” were suspended overhead, whilst the tablescape itself was adorned with single ivory bloom arrangements and rattan plate mats at each setting. Guests sat atop velvet cushions – in a variety of shapes and shades – to help make them feel cozy and comfortable while sitting on the sand.

Everyone enjoyed the amazing day at the beach, honoring women from around the world. Social-media influencer Charly Jordyn loved the idea so much, she asked us to recreate the picnic the next day for her 22nd birthday... see that post here!
