tea party please.


it may seem seasonally inappropriate to be dreaming about outdoor tea parties,

but i am.
this is largely because the lovely dream sequins
hosted a virtual tea party to celebrate her birthday -

there was of course a very diverse and international guest list,
including yours truly.

i immediately thought of this dress when i heard about the
"dreamy birthday tea party"

i didn't get to wear it at all this summer
because it needed to be tailored a bit

{kept falling down}
but it now fits perfectly,
so i cannot wait for it to warm up

so that i can wear it!
{which will probably be in about seven months. great.}

i suppose i will just have to content myself with
indoor tea parties
and cardigans + thick tights for now.
