New York Times best-selling author, Cheryl Najafi encourages others to "break the rules of proper entertaining." Gone are the days of being the perfect host that make gatherings about as much fun and stress-free as trying on swimsuits. Cheryl shows you how to relax, use what you already have, and be yourself. "Entertaining is about making your guests feel special, not about missing the whole experience because you're too crazed and busy to enjoy it."

Cheryl gives you quick and easy recipes, fun DIYs, and new ways to decorate, all with unexpected twists. From mixing and matching dishes to playful menus with bite-sized treats, her ideas are fresh and simple, and easy for anyone to put to good use.

A down-home girl originally from a small town in Missouri, Cheryl's whirlwind past two decades have been filled with life experiences from around the globe. Her ability to blend the everyday with the sophisticated can be seen in everything she does.

An author, speaker and CEO of leading lifestyle media company, CherylStyle, she is first and foremost a mother, wife and friend who is there when you need her with style tips and tricks for all your needs. Cheryl's book,"You're So Invited: Panic Less, Play More, and Get Your Party On!" was released May 29, 2012, and hit #3 on the New York Times Best Sellers list.
