With all due respect to the good ol' squad sleepover, this year it's time to elevate your bestie hangouts. We're talking aesthetic themes, totally packed agendas and *all* the Pinterest-worthy photo opps.
Basically, it's the perfect party in the making-and these mood boards are absolutely fit for your next fête. New summertime tradition? We think yes.
Mamma Mia!
WE HAVE YOUR ONE-WAY TICKET TO KALOKAIRI. GET READY TO LIVE OUT YOUR '70S DISCO DAYDREAMS.
THE DECOR: Break out the blues and whites, because this party calls for a seaside-inspired color palette. Set the table with woven mats and your prettiest azure plates (we heart the Food Network 4-piece Mediterranean Salad Plate Set, $35, kohls.com), then adorn your dance floor with a massive mirrorball. To create a fabulous photo booth (we *know* you'll want to snap some iconic Donna & The Dynamos pics), hang a shiny tinsel backdrop on an empty wall and decorate with sparkly balloons (plus a garland of bougainvillea, natch).
THE FOOD: Treat your girls to a glorious Greek spread before you dance the night away. Pita chips with hummus, chicken souvlaki and tomato feta salad make perfect picks (get the recipes at girlslife.com/iti). For dessert, set out some custom-decorated sugar cookies (from pink flowers to flare jeans, the piping options are endless) and baklava bites from the bakery.

Take a second to check in and see if you're truly following through on your friendships...or if you need to up your bestie game.
