Welcome summer! To make the most of these sunny days, why not set up a beautiful outdoor table for your breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. In the garden, on the balcony, in large or small spaces, add some colour and extra charm with prints and flower arrangements and then invite friends and family to join in on the summer celebrations. Here are some examples of beautiful inspiration to make those long summer days even more special.
A very romantic and idyllic setting with pastel tones and lace
Above, Aerin Lauder is a great reference for the topic of table setting: always charming, creative and feminine
Beautiful trick to try: match the table cloth and napkins with the same print
A perfect mix of Ikat, wicker chairs and flower arrangements makes outdoor entertaining a little more informal and yet still stylish
Above & below: Tory Burch is another amazing reference — she loves blue and white and mixes prints and different styles of tableware like no one else
Green and yellow, fruits, animals and flowers are a great combination for summer
Above, a little more traditional, with delicate tones of blues, white roses and sophisticated china
We hope you are inspired by these beautiful reasons to have your next meal outdoors. —Bárbara

I was asking myself “which table I would like to eat on”? There was no preference because it depend on the table neighbor. Who could it be is an other difficult question.
