DAZZLING DINNERWARE

All week I've been planning the tabletop for my little dinner party on Saturday, which has meant lots of hunting for fabulous china options! I've been loving the metallic options on West Elm for holiday, but then the gorgeous goodies at Crate & Barrel caught my eye too...

Wouldn't it be fantastic to just start collecting pairs of glitzy and gilded dishware to mix and match around the table?

Of course the pattern that I really wanted for my little fete, I waited to long to find... and now it's too late to get them here on time.

So I'll have to make due with the help of my fabulous friend Sheena who owns a rental company in Seattle called Totally Tabletops and happens to have some polka dots in her repertoire. Photos next week of all the goodness we're putting together for my little fete!

    Aaah, the Kate Spade set. I loved these so much I registered for them when we got married last year. We had the *worst* time completing the set. They sure are gorgeous though...

    I have been loving all metallic as well! I am all about mixing the silver and gold together. Tres Chic! I actually just love metallics in general right now (just talked about the WE plates and some other great gold finds on my blog: northonharper.com/2010/10/golden-goods )

    You had me at glitzy! These are all so lovely, I would use them every day! What weekday dinner couldn't use a little extra glamour?

    I love having different place settings around the table that still compliment one another. Plus, it is fun to collect different place settings - and easier on the pocket book when it is spread out over time. I started my collection a couple years ago, but still have a ways to go until I reach my complete set. Have a wonderful weekend!
    Much love,
    B
