Play Me Some Calypso!

I am dying over the new sneak peaks at the Target Calypso St Barth Line coming to stores.
May 1 you know where I will be!

This will look so cute on my soon-to-come teapot display, now I only need an apartment and a job!

Wow, loving all of this. Slight Lilly resemblance.

Have Some More Tea

So as most of you know, I have a slight obsession with tea!

Living in NYC has allowed me to visit some pretty cool tea rooms.

Last week I ventured to the West Village to the British part on NY!

I went to Tea and Sympathy

Look how cute all their tea pots are... Swoon!

Here is my tea pot! So cute! I got a delicious earl grey.

And for dessert... Treacle Pudding- a British classic!

Hope you enjoyed!

The Russian Tea Room

Sunday I had an amazing experience in NYC! It was Restaurant Week, so a group of us went to The Russian Tea Room for lunch!

Here we are with our menus in the ornate dinning room. We had a lovely three course meal and enjoyed catching up with others in the group.
I had an amazing mushroom and goat cheese blinchike, bouefe a la stroganoff, and a chocolate pyramid for dessert. It was all so yummy, but just being in the tea room itself was far better than the food.
Here is a pic of our group all at lunch! My dress is BCBG and of course I am the blondie on the left!

High Tea!

We all know I love tea and this weekend I went to a lovely tea with my grandmother...

I wore my Lilly Pulitzer Swirly Dress, with my Eric Javis wedges, and my Gucci handbag.

The tables were so beautiful and the food was delicious. The tea was at the church my grandparents attend.



This is the table we sat at:


Here were some of my other favorites:

Teavana for Christmas

Well, I am not sure if it was my trip to the Ritz as a young child, my southern roots, or my English heritage but... I absolutley love tea!

Every year for Christmas my parents get me something that isn't to expensive, but kind of not your normal Christmas present.
This year I asked for a hot tea maker.

While perusing Northpark in Dallas on Black Friday my family and I found Teavana!We went inside, sampled their tea, and asked about brewers.
We decided on the Perfect Tea Maker!
This brewer makes 16oz of loose leaf tea. All you do is add tea and hot water, let it brew, sit it on top of your cup, and it strains itself! The brewer cost $17.99 and the Teavana website has free shipping for Christmas! While in the store we picked up some Earl Grey tea!
Now- this present had to be tested asap. My tea turned out so flavorful and the store gives you brewing instructions to make sure each type of tea come out perfect. This would be a great gift for any tea lover, and is currently in my apartment when all the rest of my present went home with mom and dad to be wrapped...
They knew this one had to come home with me!
