Eliza Starbuck, Day 28
Tea for Two
Working hard all day, I decided to take a break. So I ran around the corner to my friend Eleanor’s house to do some girl talk and have an afternoon tea. As usual, I dressed for the occasion. I thought this soft-colored summer skirt, found at Beacon’s Closet, made the perfect statement.
One must look lady-like when getting the dish! So I put the pleats to the front on my little black dress, belted it with a belt that survived being made by Forever 21, however the dress that it came with was not so lucky. Around my neck is a large rutilated quartz crystal I wrapped with gold filled wire, which helps to keep the positive energy up. Vintage melamine bracelets are, again, on my wrist.
And I opened up the back of the dress, folding it down into a flattering v-open-back, to catch some air and avoid prudery.
Eleanor didn’t exactly spill the dirt, but she does have a rather lovely potted garden on her deck, and we enjoyed sipping our iced teas while we watched the neighbor’s laundry flap in the wind. I like the soft neutral color palette on display there. Perfect break, thanks Eleanor!
Eliza, you look lovely today- as always. My favorite picture is the second one. The color palette of you, your lipstick, the bracelets, and the laundry all work great together!
