A cuppa tea.

Today I went to the most decadent High Tea party! My seriously beautiful friend Jen threw all her girlfriends a party to raise funds and tell us all about her upcoming trip to Africa. She has been a teacher for many years but resigned this year in order to spend some time teaching in third world nations. In June she will be heading to South Africa, Kenya and Uganda with 'Hope: Education' to train up teachers and assist teaching some of the poorest children who battle conditions such as HIV everyday. Isn't that amazing!?

So, we all donated towards her trip and spent some much needed girl time digging in to mini-cakes, ribbon sandwhiches and lots of tea! Here's some pics from our beautiful afternoon!!

A bit of a girl crush ...

Happy Easter all! Hope you are having a good Easter weekend? I've got to say that so far mine is up there and there are many more Easter celebrations to come this week! I kicked off the weekend with an Imogen Heap concert in the city that a friend amazingly bought for me as a very, very early B Day present! She was amazing!! I have got to say that she is my favourite live performer. She sounds amazing, is hilarious, eccentrically British, full of impromptu songs and always impressively constructs the entire song from scratch on stage. Safe to say I developed a bit of a girl crush.

She performed heaps of songs from her beautiful new album Ellipse and some of the good oldies such as 'Goodnight and Go' and 'Hide and Seek'. Her new tracks are quirky and fun, I have 'First Train home' and 'Aha!' on repeat constantly! Hop on to her website by clicking here and have a listen. Whilst your there you can also make a donation to Architecture for Humanity
which Imogen supports. It's an incredible organisation that looks to serve the most needy with great design and architecture by building within the community to help it get back on its feet. Such a good idea!

Anyway, enjoy the rest of your Easter weekend, I'll be posting the rest of my celebrations soon!

Oh and I sold my first snood this week! I made a grey/cream version of mine for a friend! More to come!
