By The DivaGals | July 3, 2015 | Gal Approved

ARRANGE. Want to try something new this holiday weekend besides sipping wine and watching fireworks? Check out Luna Gardens Events in Thousand Oaks, Calif. Come to this DIY flower bar with nothing, and leave with a gorgeous floral arrangement created by you! I got my chance to test out the wares at their opening and ribbon cutting on June 25. Brought to you by internationally renowned special event and floral designer Ricardo Luna and Sarah Z, they are consistently raising the bar on providing clients with a high-quality product, innovatively designed and uniquely presented, and emphasized by personalized service and attention to detail. Luna’s clients range from the MTV Movie Awards, Golden Globes and the Grammy Awards, as well as some of todayΓÇÖs biggest stars, including Oprah Winfrey, the Jackson family, Penelope Cruz, WHITE BOY WE DIG Matthew McConaughey and an original diva, Betty White!

GLOSS. We love a bright red lip. What could possibly make it better? How about adding some glittery shimmer? That’s exactly what we discovered when we tried Color Your Smile Lighted Lip Glosses by Gerard Cosmetics, which offer gemstone colored shades. In the summertime, we don’t want to put on a lot of makeup, so a bright lip does all the work for us. We plan to work our glittery lip in Jewel ΓÇô a rich ruby hue with golden shine with a bold cat eye and little else for the Fourth weekend, and we know we’ll look fabulous.

MUNCH. It’s Fourth of July weekend, so get out and do some grilling. At a luncheon sponsored by Polident, we grilled corn, zucchini, beef and tofu and served our feast alongside some mixed greens, all with help of┬á good-looking Chef Jeff to make our culinary magic. If any of your guests are denture wearers make sure to tell them about Polident’s complete product line that will help them chow down with confidence. (One in six of people┬á in their forties wear some form of dentures, so make sure they don’t miss out on the barbecue fun.) For dessert try something all American … apple crisp with vanilla ice cream. Make sure to serve wine, sangria or beer from conveniently placed ice buckets to make hostessing a breeze.
