I and Little Lady love high tea - setting everything out is usually more fun that eating it:

One of my favourite memories will always be the rush to get off of St Michaels Mount in Cornwall as the path becomes submerged in the rising tide.

There are a few styles I favour - art deco, luxe, gothic, but one of the ones I like most with an abaya is Victorian - a velvet coat and lace-up boots (with jet beads and an old brooch of course).

Im smiling at your high tea picture.. when we were in Pakistan just there were so many places offering high tea :) Thanks sis *hugs*
ReplyDeleteApart from that the things that make me smile are old memories and the thought of new ones :D
Lovely post - TTMMS - my three year old teetering in my high heels and pretending to be me....the sun shining...dropping my kids to school when there isn't a crazy traffic jam/road works combi (like today - gave ourselves an hour and we got there in 20 minutes!)...allowing drivers to get in front of me...my morning cuppa and my afternoon one...my kids smiles and hugs when I am a bit late coming home from work...and last but not least, reading your posts!
ReplyDeleteSalam sis. I am usually such a slob when it comes to posting, but had to post in response to the kind of style you favour - a girl after my own heart!!
