Let's Have a Tea Party!

Ever since the episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in which Taylor has an extravaganza for her four-year-old daughter, spending $50,000, I've been obsessed with all things tea party. Of course the closest I've ever been to a tea party is my trip to The Empress in Vancouver and the American Tea Room in Beverly Hills. But a girl can dream, right?

Spring and Easter have really boosted my desire to get all English-like. If I were to host a tea party, it'd look like this (in my dreams!):

And of course if I host the perfect tea party, I have to have the perfect matching outfit!

How fun would it be to have a birthday with a tea party theme?? I might just do that this year. And macarons are a MUST at any tea party.

That's what I'm talking about...spring to me is all about that. Including the outfit of course. How gorgeous!!!

And I have to admit, ever since I saw that episode, too, I am slightly obsessed with all kinds of parties.

You just gave me an idea :) You know how much I love tea!

Connie @ SogniESorrisi said...

I love the idea of a tea party, but...I don't drink tea. Maybe a coffee party?!

Jules said...

These images are so inspiring and I'd love to have a beautiful tea party too. You have actually inspired me to research some tea rooms in my area. I found one that I want to visit. Hopefully I'll make it happen soon. The pink tea cups in your inspiration board are so pretty and whatever that pink drink is, it looks delicious.

The neutral blazer would look so great with that dress and peeptoe pumps.

This looks so fun and so darling, despite my disinterest in tea itself (let's have a coffee party! ha). I love your outfit, though I giggled at the blazer's price (960 GBP OMFG). I'd have a tea party with you if we could spike the tea! :)

erica said...

Oh how cute and chic! I definitely want to have a tea party now!

Mel said...

I love tea and a tea party sounds fabulous - for adults not a child b-day party that costs $50K. Hehe.

Diana Mieczan said...

Ps: I’m hosting a charming necklace GIVEAWAY today! Hope you’ll join in:)
