You want to host a party, but the time window to plan it is small and you’re not sure if you can pull it all together. We’re here to tell you that yes, you can make it happen. We did it ourselves at Palm Springs’ Modernism Week this year—the event was already underway when
Sunset and interior designer Sarah Sherman Samuel decided it was too perfect a chance to throw a house party (or, as we called it, the Sunset Secret House Party.) And, with the help of
