I’m following up my first post on The Party Dress with more darling party trends perfect for entertaining in 2012.
Tangerine Tango
Let’s not forget with Pantone’s colour of 2012 we will be seeing lots of orange and yellow when it comes to party themes this year. Lots of neon to come! Put your sunglasses on — it’s going to be a year of the brights.

Of course my love is always with cupcakes {and cake pops!} but this year, make room for push-up pops. Remember those little push-up Popsicles you loved in the summertime? Well, they’ve gotten a serious make-over. This is a trend that keeps on booming and will be the big hit of every party. Just ask Courtney Dial {Pizzazzerie} — she has an entire book about them coming out in March.

When it comes to any event, a dessert table is a serious “wow” factor. In 2012, they’ve moved beyond your child’s party and are all the rave. I love how they showcase all things oh-so-pretty and sweet. Each sweets table will be personalized depending on the event creating endless possibilities and a focal point at parties.

I so want to make Push-up Pops! They are so cute and can be so colorful.
Fantastic! I wish I hadn’t already had Addison’s party – I love the pink and tangerine.
