It's My Party

by: Erika Ramirez | Feb. 07, 2007

 

Loving your very first humble abode? You’re finally independent from la familia. You spend your Saturdays lounging in a wifebeater and boy cut panties, having your way with the remote, leaving the sink full of dirty dishes til tomorrow. Yet, you still can’t deny the chills of brokenness. Ballin on a budget is in full effect. First order of business—a low-budget house warming soirée.

Throw away the dusty boxes. It’s time to make a dollar out of 15cents without sacrificing your style.

Slip into your little black dress. Rock your most dashing finery and light up your crib with candles and shimmering lights. Prettify your pucker, then set the table with coquettish dishware like this cute Andy Warhol Lip Plate Set from urbanoutfitters.com.

Nothing’s worse than trying to guess which Red Stripe is yours on a table crowded with stout, brown bottles. Put an end to accidental beer swapping with these ingenious Beer Bands from modernpoverty.com

For dessert, skewer and douse strawberries in melted chocolate in a ceramic kiss-shaped pot, like this Kiss Fondue Set from urbanoutfitters.com.

These Dessert Plates by plumparty.com are a must-have at your next ‘Forget him, girl’ party.
