Yay! The Labels and Lacquer girls couldn't be more thrilled that spring is coming so so soon! Time to start shedding our winter coats and adding more florals and lightweight sweaters to our wardrobes. To celebrate this exciting seasonal change, on March 20th, we wanted to do a round-up of spring inspired cocktails and snacks to share with all your best girl friends! Right off the bat we were thinking about fruity cocktails and any drink including flowers. All the fresh blooms

S’mores are such a classic dessert, so they’re good anytime of the year. Sure, sitting outside by a campfire isn’t as enjoyable when it’s hot out, but on those occasional cool summer nights—it can’t be beat. And if you happen to live somewhere where cool summer nights are practically non-existent, then you will certainly love the recipes we’ve rounded up. Because whether you find yourself by a campfire this season or no, you’re going to want some chocolate and marshmallow tre

We don’t know about you, but the Labels and Lacquer girls have been trying to eat much more healthy this year, but Valentine’s Day is one day that we are willing to go all in with the desserts! So, just because our sweet tooths are nearly getting the best of us, we’ve started peeking desserts on Pinterest a little early. You know, we wanted to have a game plan in time for the big day. Everything from no bake truffles to molten lava cakes for two made our list. No matter what

One thing to note about the Labels and Lacquer girls is that we love to travel and we love to eat. So when in New York City, we find the best spots to grub down in. We don't want to brag but desserts are our speciality too! We enjoyed every moment of hoping from subway to subway to get to our next eating destination. If you're in NYC or planning a trip, pencil these places into the to-do list! 1. People’s Pops NYC summers are HOT, HOT, HOT. So, when you’re doing a day of sigh

Fourth of July is almost here and you know what that means....It's time to make red,white, and blue colored desserts. We love any excuse to have desserts, especially themed desserts. Fourth of July just isn't Independence day without American colored icebox cakes and cupcakes, right?!. Fourth of July is one of the Labels and Lacquer girls favorite holidays. It's so much fun! This holiday is the epitome of summer. We usually spend it sitting on the beach or having a BBQ poolsi

Let's be honest, summertime is really all about what float you are going to be cruising around the pool in. There is nothing like spending the entire day relaxing by the pool. Why relax in any old boring pool float, when you can float in style? We scoured the Internet to bring to you the cutest poolside accessories. From pineapples, to giant popsicles and even hot peppers; we found it all. Are you planning on having a summer BBQ? Well we have the perfect float for that. The g

I don’t know about you, but the L & L girls are always dreaming of being on a tropical vacation. Nothing beats feeling the sun beating down on you and the sand in between your toes. Ahh, I can almost feel the ocean breeze now just thinking about it! Even if we can’t all escape to an island this spring, there are certain desserts that can help create the ambiance of an island getaway. Yes, that’s right! We are talking piña coladas, coconuts, and mangos galore. Get ready to hit

Upon reflecting on our trip, it was hard to come up with a list of our "best" moments in this city. There were so many good times that it was hard to narrow it down to just a few of our favorites. Because honestly, just getting to experience traveling Hong Kong together was a dream come true for both of us. But, because we thought it'd be fun to cover the highlights of our trip, we made ourselves pick out some of the favorite places we visited and things we experienced throug

I’m really bad about using bananas before they get super ripe, but maybe that’s secretly because I know once bananas start to turn brown— you can make banana bread with them. And there’s always a reason to make a nice loaf of banana bread, am I right? Recently, when my bananas started to ripen, I started looking up banana bread recipes online because I usually just go with our mom’s recipe, but I didn’t have it on hand— so I turned to the next best thing— the Internet. I foun
