Foodie Friday: Fashion Plates ~ Set a Table As Stylish As You Are

(Via Barney's NY )

With New York Fashion Week on my mind, I decided to put a fashion spin on Foodie Friday this week. Don't worry, there's a really good recipe at the end. If you think about it, shouldn't your tabletop be as stylish as you are? Many of the designers like Oscar de La Renta, Vera Wang and Versace have all collaborated with china makers to create their own lines of porcelain plates. I love playing dress up.  Join me in dressing the table.
