Fashion Plates
Dining al fresco doesn’t mean losing all décor(um).
La Plates’ melamine dishware has the glamour of fine china without the threat of destruction. Each plate ($22) can be monogrammed with your initials in classic colors like navy and kelly green, set against preppy prints like houndstooth, clovers or gingham. For a more subtle approach, go for tempered glass cutting boards (from $40), stripy place mats (from $18) or a personalized acrylic tray (from $32). Not sure which initials to use? Consult the site’s Monogram Etiquette guide.Now that’s getting the dish.
