PHOTOSSTAR MAGAZINE GETS HOLIDAY PARTY ADVICE FROM KAREN MCDOUGAL
Dec. 18 2017, Published 5:01 p.m. ET
ETIQUETTE IS EVERYTHING
“No matter how casual a get-together, a host has worked hard to prepare, so always RSVP and arrive on time for a sit- down dinner, 15 to 20 minutes later for all other soirees,” advises Karen, adding that you don’t need to bring a casserole to show your appreciation. “Avoid things that need to be heated up or put in a vase — the host has enough to do,” she says. “Opt for a nice wine, candle, or quality chocolates. I also love fancy olive oil — just toss it in a cute gift bag and go!”
