Today is our Mother Daughter Etiquette Tea for The Hinsdale Debutantes – and one of my favorite days of the year.

These darling, beautiful young ladies have their whole lives ahead of them – and are so fun to share college stories, sorority rush and etiquette tales, texting and phone etiquette tips, and for the first time ever – Placesetting Wars!

We are dividing up into 3 teams of girls, and each are setting our intricate trend tablescapes in perfect form as fast as they can.

You go girls.
