Halloween Tea Meet-up!

 Hi friends! <3

Celebrating spooky time with a tea party.


Starting off with choosing my teas... The special one was gingerbread which sounded delicious.


Loved the golden design on this teacup and matching saucer set... 


The tea arrives...


Steeping it up...


The tiered trays arrive...


Getting into the scones...


Mmm, and the sandwiches... 


Can't forget about dessert... <3


The hostess gave out some extra treats too. Thanks again!

All together!


Thoughts:

These otks are just like the other pair I have, but in pink. Same type of fabric and reversed brand name printed on the backs. The blouses are cute, but are more like crop tops. The fabric is lightweight and sheer with shimmery threads in it. The pink one is a peachy-pink color. I think these would be great for hot weather/summertime under a jsk.

Thoughts:

This is such a cute clip! I like that it can be worn in different ways (not just in your hair, but on a dress or purse too). It makes me think back to when I was first starting out in lolita. Sweet style coords always seemed to have fuzzy Chocomint accessories like this. Are they still as popular? I wonder... Anywho, I'm looking forward to wearing this sometime soon. 

September Sip Down Progress!

Hi friends! <3

Keeping on going...




In September, I shifted out of iced tea and more into hot tea with the cooler weather. Finished Davidstea blueberry fields forever. Had Teavana earl grey, Vahdam earl grey spiced, and Harney & sons mint verbena. Continued with Tealeafs champagne raspberry, Tops jasmine green, and Davidstea grand cru and blueberry matchas. I also treated myself to a rose bubble tea at a cafe. The earl grey spiced one was my favorite.


No tea ware was obtained this month.
