Supper Club-Table Inspiration

It's my month to host supper club, so that has been on my brain!  A pretty table is always a great place to start, as it sets the tone of the evening.  This is my inspiration for a casual, yet elegant weeknight supper.

Since I'm not adding to my collection of tabletop pieces, I'll have to see what I can come up with out of what I already own!  I do love that our intermediate china, Bernardaud Digital, can easily go from modern chic to earthy and organic, depending on its surroundings.

Let's Go for a Dip

When I saw this Good Thing in the September 2011 issue of Martha Stewart Living, I knew I had to save this for later.  I think if I attempted to do this now, Andy would not be enthused considering we barely have a place for the glassware that we have now, much less anything else!

But what a great project?  It immediately made me think of the Midas Collection at DWR but at a fraction of the cost.

It also reminds me of these Kim Seybert glasses that I just love and think would go great with our china.

And these more reasonably priced glasses by Colin Cowie but still unattainable as they're sold out.

While I love a metallic neutral, I can't help but envision these dipped in bright, fun colors for a more mix-and-match sort of feel.  I'm definitely going to pick up some of the stemless wine glasses at the Crate & Barrel outlet or CB2 and do some dipping when I have a place to store them!

End of Summer Outfit

It's getting late in the summer when thoughts of fall start creeping in... sweaters, soft scarves, boots.  But, it's not quite that time yet!  Let's soak up these last few days of summer in style.
