Summer Time Dinning

Summer Time Dinning

Summer is in full swing and with all the time we are spending (or should be spending) outdoors a closer look to one's dinnerware is in order. After all you don't want to be serving an al fresco dinner in your old drab plates and cups from the late 80s, Right? 


My favorite trend right now is the paring of antique silver with old world classics such as the rustic bottles-vases and pastel linens. Not only it creates an eclectic atmosphere but it sure makes you go for a stroll in the antique or thrift shops for some fabulous finds.  What do you think?
