Get Inspired by the World
Just like Gisele Bündchen, get inspired by the beauty of the world coming together for the once-every-four-years Summer Olympics – this time in her gorgeous home country of Brazil!
Get Your Playlist Set
Not all of us can be as lucky as Adriana Lima and actually be traveling to our favorite restaurant in Brazil (as if!), but we can take a cue from her and make sure there is plenty of beautiful music on our party playlist for all of those commercial breaks.
Get Your Nails Done
Camilla Belle has the right idea: get your nails done for the most perfect of accessories during the Olympics. The only question is: Do we go with Rio-inspired or TeamUSA-inspired? Or, you know, inspired by YOUR country…
Get a Temporary Tattoo
Cuban cutie Ryan Lochte may have gotten a real tattoo to celebrate his previous Olympics wins, but we can do the same with some oh-so-adorable temporary tattoos.
Get Your Team Colors On
Whether you're supporting #TeamUSA, #TeamBrazil or any other country in the world that your heart (at least partially) belongs to, an Olympics-watching party wouldn't be a real party if you weren't donning your colors.
Get Your Crew Ready
Once you have your food, your decorations and your nails painted, it's time to get your friends over and ready to have FUN. Take a cue from Adriana Lima, and surround yourself with those you love as you watch the Summer Games.
Get Your Face Painted
Once your crew is there and you're ready to start watching your favorite event or the opening ceremony in Rio, the last step is to paint your face with your team colors. Go #TeamUSA! Or, like Camilla Belle, go #TeamBrazil!
Get and Give Love
Most importantly, though, the Olympics are about getting together as the entire world and loving our community. Nobody put it better than Gisele: "The Olympics symbolize so much for our global community. The unity that is felt is amazing and gives me goose bumps. There is so much dedication and love the athletes themselves pour into their chosen sport. Each athlete has given their all to achieve lifelong dreams and their journeys have led them here to Rio to compete for their countries with pride. The energy is electric and contagious."
