I love hosting. Summer barbecues, holiday parties, miscellaneous dinners – you name it, and I’ll find an excuse to whip up a new recipe, design a tablescape, and curate a playlist for it. My achilles heel? The dishes after. Crusty plates, sticky cups – the mere thought of it sends me into a tailspin. So, when I discovered Sophistiplate, the internet’s favorite Instagrammable paper plates, I placed a huge order – and in short, I’m obsessed. The brand absolutely lives up to the hype it’s received, and I can't recommend placing your own order of these gorgeous plates enough – especially if they’re in stock right now.

Start With The Eco-Plates
You really can’t tell that these Eco-Plates aren’t stoneware, but they make hosting about ten times easier. I’m also glad that while disposable, they’re crafted with the environment in mind: made from natural and compostable bamboo, wood fiber and sugar cane, they’re both eco-friendly and incredibly sturdy. Available in a range of beautiful colors (soft cream, blush, sky blue and more), the 9.5” Dinner Plates ($13) and 7.5” Salad Plates ($10) come in sets of 8. I’d recommend snagging a few of each.

Set A Timeless Table
Sophistiplate’s Timeless collection also caught my eye, so I grabbed a few things for the fall dinners I’m planning over the next few months. It’s important to me to create an ~experience~ for my guests, and this set delivers in spades. I had been wary of using paper because I was afraid of my table looking like a kid’s birthday party, but the Timeless collection would never. The floral designs and gold trim are really elegant and have a total cottage-core aesthetic – and the matching (and reusable) cutlery and stemmed wine glasses perfectly complete a simple-yet-sleek table design.
