Ain't No Party Like a British Tea Party

My friends and I threw a British Tea Party over break because well lets face it, I have UK fever! These past Olympics, Kate Middleton being preggers, and well all things Coldplay make my heart skip a beat. Being that I'll be traveling across the pond this spring I wanted to get revved up by having a traditional high tea party. So I scoured the internet and found great high tea guides that gave history, etiquette information, suggestions for traditional meals served, and attire suggestions. Needless to say the girls and I had so much fun dressing up, taking endless pictures, and eating all of the yummy food. Got to love those Brits!

The table is set!

Made ombre necklaces to commemorate the night


It wouldn't be a tea party without white gloves

Pinky up n' all

"Oh Vanessa I can't believe how amazing my Apple stocks are doing"

P.S. I made these




Best friends since the 5th grade!

Dance party


Re-applying make-up!



Found a huge bag of beads in her apartment so of course endless pictures with beads were taken!

Hot pink flats from Italy, dotted tights, and tulle dress = just some of my favorite things.

P.s. I made this flower head piece! #BuddingMarthaStewart
