Getty Considering exactly how to stock your bar can really open up a can of worms. Do you buy separate glasses for red wine, white wine, and champagne? Do you really need those (super cute) Moscow mule mugs? Which cocktail utensils are essential? And what the heck to do they all do? We turned to Laurén LaRocca, one half of the party planning, lifestyle blogging duo Twink + Sis, to find out which accessories you really need. Here's what she recommends: 1.

Plus, it's a pleasure to get into a made bed at the end of a long day." 2. They write out a to-do list. "Take a few minutes in the morning to jot down your goals for the day. Having a concrete list will keep you on track throughout the day and give you a s...
