What better way to warm up this winter than with a party? Just because the holidays are over doesn’t mean the fun has to stop. Unwind your scarf and leave your puffer coat in the closet — it’s time to trade your snow boots for dancing shoes. If you’re the one who usually throws the bash, you know that slinging cocktails isn’t exactly the most fun way to spend the evening, especially when everyone else is cozy in the kitchen with crudités or transforming the living room into a dance floor.
