CITYist

The long days and warm nights make for the perfect parties. Luckily, Olive & Cocoa have you covered with its great collection of outdoor entertaining and décor. CITYists, check out our picks from their new summer collection that we think will make the most magical bash.

The first thing your guests will see when they come is the decorations, so those really need to set the mood. The Fête Bunting Banner, $98, adds a cute and festive touch. The pink, blue, and yellow pennant flags imprinted with bird and foliage designs and inspiring expressions are made of eco-friendly unbleached cotton. Hung over a table, in a doorway, or outside on a balcony, the banner will be the most enduring feature.

The Backyard Metropolis Party Lanterns, $74, will liven up any space with its sweet watercolor patterns. The set of four lanterns can be clustered above a table for a fun vibe.

As guests will automatically gravitate toward the food and drinks, make sure they look just as cute as they are tasty. The Stripey Straw Mason Tumblers, $54 for a set of 6 and $84 for a set of 12, are such a lovely way to serve drinks of all kinds. From cocktails to lemonade, these repurposed small size jelly jars are perfectly adorable. The perforated lids have a daisy pattern that wonderfully fits the included stripey paper straws.

Speaking of lemonade, Olive & Cocoa offers Strawberry Lemonade, a crate full of summery sweets that will make a whimsical centerpiece. The petite size retails for $64 and contains favorites like sour strawberry ropes, gummy lemon slices, and strawberry lemonade taffy sticks. The large size includes the same candies as the petite, but includes more selections such as lemon drops, strawberry gummy bears, and pink gummy rings. This size costs $94.
