It is not everyday you get to dress up and spend an afternoon with a best friend enjoying a delightful high tea, but that is just what I got up to last Sunday!
The High Tea Party starts it’s Australian circuit in Brisbane and offers you a perfect opportunity to get some girlfriends together for a little lot of merrymaking as you not only get to enjoy a beautiful dining experience, there is also free flowing champagne and shopping! It does not get much better than that.
While my friend of 39 years and Miranda Kerr were doing the tea thing….I was making the most of the bottomless champagne!
We arrived 2 hours before our official starting time and we are so glad we did. There was room after room of shoes, handbags, clothes, aromatherapy, tea, travel,
Tupperware, art, make up and more to explore. And that Royal Daulton display was just divine, I wanted to take it all home with me.
Once inside there was gifts on the table, unlimited tea and coffee, traditional High Tea favourites such as finger sandwiches, mini quiches, scones and delectable bite size morsels of yumminess…..yes, those chocolate mousse cups tasted just as good as they looked.
There were talks from sponsors and prize giveaways, your name goes into a draw to win $1000 of Royal Daulton, but most importantly there was a fashion parade, with a difference.
One of my blogging buddies Vicky from Life On The Hill was one of the models in the fashion parade featuring gorgeous gowns from Living Silk.
All of the models that took part in the parade are courageous women who have been fighting the cancer battle and they all got up on the stage so proudly and I don’t think there were many dry eyes in the house during this important part of the event to raise awareness for #pinkhope. They all looked so beautiful after being treated backstage to hair and makeup pampering.
How fabulous does she look?
A big thank you to Vicky for letting me share in this very special day. xxxx
Find out when the next event is happening in your city and book a date with your besties. We really had so much fun and I am sure you will too! We have already decided that next year we are going to get a little group together as there were a few who wished they had been going too.
Have you ever been to The High Tea Party event?

What a fun day and for a special cause. Love the work that #pinkhope do! I met Vicki once at a blogger event here in Brisbane. She looks fantastic!
They all looked so lovely, even though they were all so stressed. 🙂

Never say no to bubbles is my motto!
What a perfect way to spend some time and yes definitely champagne, you can have tea any day. An important cause to support.
