Afternoon tea outfit

A couple of weeks ago I made a trip back home to the Midlands to celebrate my mums birthday. We had a lovely afternoon tea at Hampton Manor, a nineteenth century country retreat set in 45 acres of grounds and gardens. It wasn't quite a 'traditional' afternoon tea, and although they had homemade scones it was more like a mini tasting menu with an interesting selection of tea blends as the accompanying 'flight'.

I packed light for the weekend so took my new Pyrus Anais Animal print shirt in coral, £125, and layered a cream Modern Rarity cami underneath, Lee white jeans, which I've raw hemmed myself using a non threaded overlocker, and Aquazzura sandals. which I bought from TK Maxx! Yes, they really do have coveted designer brands at bargain prices, so whilst they were still expensive at £199.99, RRP from £649, they are totally worth it for their projected cost per wear. See me in them a lot over the summer!

My Pyrus shirt was another investment purchase. I was searching for a plain silk shirt, as my Massimo Dutti  ivory one is definitely past it's best! I saw this and thought how pretty it was, but not very me, so decided to try it on and the floaty fit and coral print won me over!! This style is now sold out but see similar at Pyrus London or John Lewis and Partners. They also have great occasion dresses but I missed out on my favourite Frankie Animal print dress, below, which would have been perfect for upcoming summer events.

My bag is old from Coccinelle but I'd have preferred a new summer style in a pretty pastel, like those I've shown below. The Zaniah Mini is also now in the sale...I'm trying to resist! Click on the links to shop, some may be affiliate links, and thanks for stopping by.
