National Afternoon Tea Week

8 / 21 / 17

One of my most favourite things to do is go out with friends and family and enjoy afternoon tea! Last week was National Afternoon Tea Week and in the last few years it has made a come back with most tea rooms and hotels offering their take on the traditional afternoon tea experience. It can range in price from a few pounds to a small fortune depending on where you go! If you are out and about in London then be prepared to pay the highest prices! It makes a lovely treat though for a birthday or special celebration so I would say its worth it.

There are a few places I like to go to enjoy afternoon tea around the Worcestershire and West Midlands Area these include:

  1. Brockencote Hall
  2. The Stone Manor
  3. The Garden Tea Rooms @ Witley Court
  4. Malory Court Hotel and Spa
  5. Webbs of Wychbold
  6. Stanbrook Abbey 
  7. Arley Arboretum
  8. The Old Laundry Tea Rooms @ Spetchley
  9. The Elms Hotel
  10. Whitlenge Gardens Tea Room

They all range in price but all are well worth a visit! Please comment below to let me know where you like to go for Afternoon Tea.

Cute Kawaii Haul

8 / 21 / 178 / 21 / 17

I absolutely love these Kawaii inspired make-up products. Not really vintage I know, but they look so cute and I  couldn’t resist trying them out. I ordered them from INSTYLE website. I was impressed with the amount of different and unique products they supply. It is a great website for present buying and getting something a little different. 

These are the different products I bought:

Babyface Moisture B.B Cream, Babyface Petit Blusher, TonyMoly Pocket Bunny Perfume Bar 02 Juicy Bunny, Cats Wink Power Compact with Mirror and Innisfree Skinny Waterproof Microcara.

I love, love, love the packaging and the products are really good and reasonably priced. The Pocket Bunny Perfume Bar has a gorgeous fruity fragrance and is easy to apply by just rubbing it on. The Cats Wink compact is great and comes with it’s own mirror, which is great for your handbag. Both Babyface products are lovely, particularly the blusher as it is a great colour and has a cute powder puff applicator with bow to apply it. The Microcara is fab because it has a tiny wand applicator that allows you to coat all your eyelashes evenly and creates a dramatic look. Would recommend all these products and they make great gifts. 

Visit the INSTYLE website to get your cute products!

Please comment below if you have any favourite make-up products that you would recommend.

Vintage Garden Party Cocktails

8 / 3 / 17

I love going out for cocktails with friends and I have tried to recreate many cocktails at home, some successful, some not so much!

Vintage glassware can look so beautiful when used at weddings or garden parties and even more so when filled to the brim with a delicious cocktail adorned with an edible flower, or an exotic fruit. 

For more ideas of gorgeous garden party drinks or drinks for weddings take a look at my Pinterest Page. See link in sidebar. 

I would love to hear your ideas for wedding cocktails or signature drinks at parties. Please comment below!

Hi, my name is Adele and I love all things vintage.

My blog is somewhere for me to post all the beautiful vintage images and inspirations I find when I'm out and about or when browsing my absolute favourite site Pinterest!

My blog also includes vintage fashion and beauty, home and wedding ideas, as well as my new hobby making vintage crafts.
I really hope you enjoy following my blog.
