A Colorful Los Angeles Bat Mitzvah: Lily

Lovely Lily's Bat Mitzvah, with its Moroccan lanterns dripping in bright Spring flowers, it's ceiling draped in sherbet-colored globes and market lights, and it's fancy gold dusted cake pops, is just the thing to jumpstart a dormant imagination and brighten a gray day.

When I met thirteen-year-old Lily, I was blown away by her grace, her artistic aesthetic, and her old soul. About five minutes into our meeting, Lily's mother Liza asked her what theme she would like for her Bat Mitzvah. Not missing a beat, Lily replied "Mom, I don't want a theme-- I want a FEEL." As a stylist, my ears perked up. When pushed to elaborate, Lily explained that she wanted warmth, sophistication, ambience, and fun on her big day. Oh, and she definitely wanted Moroccan lanterns to be involved.

With sparkling mint-mango mocktails served with gold topped swizzle sticks, tiers of birthday cake and red velvet cake pops, Moroccan lounge furniture, henna-inspired light, and a room filled with candles, lanterns, music, and laughter-- we created something warm and glowing in the dead of Winter for our girl.

Without further ado, it is my absolute pleasure to share with you a few of my favorite images from Lily's exotic, Winter-color pop reception.
