This beautiful book, You're Invited: Classic Elegant Entertaining, by the hostess extraordinaire Stephanie Booth Shafran, has now made it to the top shelf of my bookcase. After a few hours of poring over each of the 240 pages, 175 of those pages beautiful color images, I have to say the this is a must have for anyone interested in decor and entertaining. This is one of my favorite go to books!

This book is laden with tips and instructions on creating stunning tablescapes with china, silver, linens, flowers, menus with recipes, and pages of ideas on entertaining. There are eight parties showcased here, and there is nothing left out, including the lovely decor, decorated by the uber talented Jeffrey Bilhuber, so you are also in for a huge treat on the decor end.  You will love room after room of decorating heaven. 

Below are several images that you will love.  Imagine 175 of these beauties included in the book.  ENJOY!
