Afternoon Tea
The tea dress seems to be constantly popular and always in fashion. It has been around since the thirties and perhaps it is the massive popularity of all things vintage that is responsible for the constant re emergence of the tea dress each spring.I think tea dresses are great, I buy one almost every spring and I have already bought myself one this year and teamed it with an old fashioned petticoat for the spring. The beauty of the tea dress is that it is universally flattering. I love wearing girlie feminine clothes. The tea dress is both girlie and feminine and easy to wear.
The only problem with the tea dress is perhaps it can get a bit tired and boring and is sometimes just a bit grown up. I don’t think I will ever tire of the tea dress but each year it needs a bit of an update or something a bit different. This year I am updating the look by going for really bright florals and accessorising with chunky bangles and tan wedge shoes.
I love this Windswept Poppies Print Tea Dress in a cool cotton and silk blend fabric.
