Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star! A Celestial Second Birthday Party

"I figured this would be the last year I could call the shots on my son's birthday-party theme," says event-design expert Shannon Wellington of Bottle Pop Party Company of her son Gabriel's second birthday bash.

"I figured this would be the last year I could call the shots on my son's birthday-party theme," says event-design expert Shannon Wellington of Bottle Pop Party Company of her son Gabriel's second birthday bash. "Even though he’s growing up so fast, I knew I wanted a sweet theme that was still a bit babyish. His first and favorite song has been 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,' so I knew that was the way to go." Twinkle lights, clouds, and tons of star-shaped sweets and decorations, including an awesome Star Bar, turned this simple starting point into a sensational party. Keep clicking for all the glittery, starry details.

For those of us in the United States, this Saturday will be marked by parades, barbecues, and family outings. Yesterday, I showed you some stripes that will look great in your home year-round. Today, I'm back with some stars for your stripes.

I love these fun Reclaimed Wooden Stars ($19-39). They'd look cute in a Summer cabin or a children's bedroom. There are a lot more star-studded finds when you read more

Roundup: Star Struck

In this part of the year, when night descends upon us before dinner is on the table (and often before we leave the office), twinkling stars are a welcome respite to all of the darkness.

In this part of the year, when night descends upon us before dinner is on the table (and often before we leave the office), twinkling stars are a welcome respite to all of the darkness. I thought I'd try to bring some of their celestial brightness into your casa with some pretty home finds, such as this Moravian Star Pendant ($139).

Who Wore It Better? Tracy Reese Star Spangled Dress

Oh say can you see both Paris Hilton and Vanessa Minnillo rocking the same dress?

Oh say can you see both Paris Hilton and Vanessa Minnillo rocking the same dress? Paris first wore Tracy Reese's star spangled dress to the David Letterman Show a few weeks ago. She managed to find Christian Louboutin pumps in the same exact color. Former MTV VJ Vanessa Minnillo chose the same dress for the TRL wrap party, but opted for black sandals. Both girls accessorized minimally, allowing the loud dress to speak for itself. Whose attempt at Tracy Reese's starry dress do you prefer?

Paris Hilton in Star Spangled Tracy Reese: Love It or Hate It?

Leave it to Paris to show off her patriotism the week of the election.

Leave it to Paris to show off her patriotism the week of the election. The celebrity was spotted wearing a star spangled Tracy Reese confection for her appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman. Her striking blue dress was paired with matching cobalt Christian Louboutin heels and sparkling diamonds. Is this the perfect way to show off her pride? I wonder who she voted for!

Look For Less

The Look For Less: Tiffany & Co. Star Necklace

Star light, star bright.
Tiffany & Co. at ShopStyle

Star light, star bright. The star craze keeps on keeping on. Here we have a gorgeous but very expensive Tiffany & Co. Star Link Lariat Necklace ($1,100). There are several things I like about this necklace, but the price tag is not one of them. Its delicateness is stunning, as is the combination of the big and little stars. It would look as darling with a simple gray tank as it would an LBD. Too bad I would go bankrupt if I ever purchased it.

Miley Cyrus stopped by Guitar Center over the weekend, presumably to invest in a new rockin' instrument. To look the part of cool musician, she wore Rachel Pally's star dress, a black cropped vest, and red Chucks. She balanced her girliness via a macho watch, a pair of geometric sunnies, and a colorful striped bag. Rock on.
