Oh, that little dinner? You just casually threw it away with uninspiring recipes (yes, we’ve got your signature cocktails and apps planned for you) and very (really) good taste in dishes and candles. It makes no sense.
You already know that if you serve gorgeous food to begin with, it will only get more gorgeous if you add sexy glasses, serving platters, goblets, and golden silverware to the spread. (You’ll be swayed to buy a sun-shaped ceramic serving bowl by the end of it, trust us.) And you can’t forget the decor. We’re talking about all the extras: the candlesticks! slimes! cheese platters! and everything you need on your table.
Yes, these mouth-blown glass and Italian porcelain pieces aren’t cheap, if we’re being honest, (people doing wedding registries, you’re welcome) but they’re a necessary investment to become the fanciest party host imaginable. Plus, no one says you can only use them when you have your six closest friends over for a cocktail party. If you wanna spice things up on a Monday night and break out those dining room accessories, no one will stop you.
So basically: setting the mood with chic dinnerware and a tablecloth can give even macaroni and cheese Michelin vibes – here are the sexiest kitchen accessories and dinnerware options we could find to give you ideas to dine for days.
Maybe you’ve been tempted to put your Brita filter on the table and call it a day. That’s fine, but you can opt for this fancy pitcher instead.

These fancy cups
Calypso Glasses Set
Whether you fill them with a nice pour of pinot grigio or just plain water, your drinks will look super cute.
PS They are mouth blown glass and come in a set of two.

That sexy knife
Poglia Signature Horn&Bone
Truly, this is the most beautiful knife I have ever seen. Definitely worth slicing steak, cheese or whatever you want to show off.

This Gorge cutting board
Williams Sonoma End-Grain Cutting Board
Whenever you’re hosting a dinner party, you need to have cutting boards on hand that are pretty enough to be left out when the guests arrive. You know, like this one in walnut.
5
These wavy candlesticks
Wavy Taper Candles
Candlesticks may look like something your parents got as a wedding present, but not these candlesticks. They come in a set of two in five different color options!

This trendy candle holder
Candle holders or warm glass vase
Where to put your wavy candles, you ask? These guys. They double as a vase if you want to accompany roses instead of a candlelit dinner.
7
These rosé colored glasses
Estelle colored glass champagne coupe
These colored glasses are for gimlets, manhattans, or daiquiris (frozen glasses from the grocery store are fine, if that’s your vibe).
8
This classy gold silverware
Vienna cutlery, set of 24
Your cutlery has to be gold to go with all that decadent vibe. It will make every place infinitely better.
9
This super pretty Italian bowl
Ginori 1735 Oriente Italiano Small Serving Bowl, Porpora
Porcelain on the table isn’t just for your grandma’s dining room. Moreover, it comes from Italy, which automatically makes it more chic.

These Artsy Plates
Color Block Dinner Plate, Set of 4
Don’t be surprised if your white dinnerware is jealous of this set that adds a splash of color to your table.
11
These stylish glasses
ghost cup
If you serve cocktails with very little mixer, opt for this set of elegant glasses.
12
This modern looking vase
Rings Double Walled Glass Vase
A real dinner between adults is not possible without flowers on the table. You can store your stems (silk or fresh!) in this super cool pink glass vase.
13
These vintage bowls
Ombré Rose Pink/Lilac/Blue Glass Chip & Dip Set
You can put your fries and salsa in a plastic bowl. But why would you when this vintage 1950s ombré number exists?
14
This Amazing Solar Serving Bowl
Mellow NYC Sun Bowl
In truth, this dish will be the center of your table, making any entree you put on it even more delicious.
15
This Freakin’ Cool Marble Serving Board
stone cutting board
While it might be a mini workout to haul it to your table, it makes any cheese you put on it instantly IG-worthy. One reviewer calls it “exquisite”, so there you have it.
