party inspiration: valentine's day

This weekend, I'm hosting a fun get-together for my girlfriends: Valentine's Day treats, red, pink and Stella & Dot jewelry. Could it get any better? Plus, I'm excited to play hostess. Rarely ever do I get the chance to throw a get-together for my girlfriends that actually involves more than a few bottles wine (read: vodka) and casually sitting around our dining room table (read: standing in the kitchen).

The potentially more exciting part about planning a party? All the Pinterest-ing I get to do in the name of research.

Here are some of my favorite inspirations:
