What it is: Pocket Grey Placemat, $9, CB2
Why we love it: If you are like us, you have a hard time remembering if the fork goes on the right or left side. So, it is no wonder that we love this nifty placemat that does all the thinking for you - just place all the utensils in the side pocket. We think they would look fabulous layered under bright, patterned plates with chevron napkins.
Styling tip: Planning a picnic? Prepack individual settings of flatware, roll them up and store them in your basket until you are ready to break bread.
