For those of us who live the luxe life, we can afford to buy separate sets of dishes for different occasions, not to mention afford the space to store them all. Howeve, most of us are resigned to one set of dishes that has to work for everything from every day dine and dash to an occasional fancy fall feast. If we're lucky, maybe we have two sets.However, with Nora Fleming's collection of dishware, you can have dishes that will match every occasion, whether it's a Spring brunch or a Holiday dinner. The dishes are all a basic white with a simple dotted pattern around the rim. The beauty, however, comes with "Minis," which are tiny colorful, ceramic adornments that attach to each plate. These accessories are what take a special Valetine's Dinner with an "XOXO" imprinted heart to a fun birthday fete with wrapped gifts. The plates and bowl range in price from $12.50 to $60 each, and the Minis are $12.50 per piece.
As the holidays approach, we'll certainly be doing our fair share of entertaining, whether it's a casual get together of friends on a Saturday afternoon watching football, a simple cocktail party, or a full-blown sit down dinner. In any case, you're going to need the right stuff to set your table (and I don't mean a tablescape) -- linens, plates, cups, and flatware.
