A tea for two..or twenty

On Saturday [livejournal.com profile] madamekat held an amazing regency tea. I had a totally marvelous time. I'm pretty sure I only get invited so I show up with my tent, but hey works for me!

Our amazing and gracious hosts welcomed us to a yard full of lovely tables with delicate tea cups (I may or may not have forgotten to get a photo of that)

The event featured the finest teas from some place I forget and Regency Teas which I simply cannot rave enough about. And everyone looked completely fabulous.

We ate tiny sandwiches and sipped tea at the tables then wandered over to where The Bohemian Belle and Dames a la mode had set up a trunk show for us. Let me tell you there needs to be fabulous shopping at ALL the parties from now on!

"Want to buy a beautiful bonnet?" The Bohemian Belle brought a beautiful tiara...it didn't even make it till the party started before Kat had given it a good home.

Didn't [livejournal.com profile] mandie_rw's new dress turn out smashing? I love the print and as always the fit was exceptional.

Dashwood decided to take his human for a walk.



In the end it was a great party....

It was wonderful seeing you- and your dress looked wonderful, even if you didn't finish the trimming! Well done! (and pssst...https://www.etsy.com/listing/121714184/2-yards-2-12-inch-wide-copper-colored?ref=shop_home_active AND I'll give you the special "in person" price of $2/yard...)
