MAKE IT CUTE

If you’re anything like us, then you’re counting down the days until the second season of Riverdale premieres on October 11th. Of course, even if the names Archie, Jughead, Betty and Veronica mean nothing to you, there’s still plenty of time left to get caught up on the first season, which is available on Netflix. We’re always looking for an occasion to gather our squad for a party and what better excuse than to watch one of our fave shows together? After all, everything, even binge-watching, is better with your gal pals. Below are our best tips for a fun-filled premiere party.

Make a pitch perfect playlist.
Riverdale, like all of the CW’s best shows, has a fabulous soundtrack that mixes indie discoveries with pop hits. Before your party, round up your friends’ fave new tracks and the best oldie but goodie sing-along hits (“Toxic” anyone?) and compile them into a playlist sure to please everyone. Now you have the perfect backdrop to a fun night in.

Have a pre-episode karaoke sesh or lip sync battle.
Think you have what it takes to croon like Archie? Prove it to yourself and your friends by putting on the back-up track to your favorite Taylor Swift or Demi Lovato track and giving it all you’ve got. Not one for singing? Don’t fear, have fun choreographing your own silly moves and lip syncing along. You and your friends are sure to entertain one another and who knows, maybe one of you is secretly bound for super-stardom.

Customize your own varsity jackets.
Archie’s iconic blue and yellow varsity jacket is the epitome of cool. Don’t have a bae on the football team to lend you his? Fret not. Purchase your own varsity jackets in your squad’s go-to hue and then have fun accessorizing them with iron on patches, rhinestones, fabric paint, and more. The possibilities for self-expression are endless.

Craft the ultimate milkshakes.
If you’re a foodie, then you’ve probably had your fair share of snaps of decadent milkshakes pop up on your screen. Of course, Riverdale’s own head to Pop’s Chock’lit Shoppe whenever they need a dose of comfort in the form of something sweet. Break out your blender, your favorite ice cream flavors and whatever toppings you can find and make your own delicious shakes. Gossiping about which couples you ‘ship is always more fun on a full stomach.
