Tea for Two

What could be more classically English than a good cuppa tea? Cute, classic, kitsch, traditional, whatever your style, tea rooms are popping up everywhere offering you your daily afternoon cuppa, cakes and finger sandwiches. A tea can solve pretty much anything, so to celebrate the glorious English tradition here's a selection of tea related items:

Mr Darcy Love


"This is a wretched beginning indeed! My sole dependence was on you; and I am sure nobody else will believe me, if you do not. Yet, indeed, I am in earnest. I speak nothing but the truth. He still loves me, and we are engaged."

How delighted I was to find my perfect man all wrapped up, so to speak, a Mr Darcy of my own in a golden locket. Now I'm not one of those Mr Darcy fanatics, I like Pride and Prejudice as much and no more then the next person but I doubt that many girls after reading the book or watching the film could deny a love for Darcy.
PLUS is bang on style! Victorian pictures/objects are hanging off many necklaces lately: pocket watches, bicycles and old fashioned phones, not to mention the silhouette of the Victorian middle classed lady but I'm venturing out for a more traditional approach to the locket, having my hearts desire inside (sorry Neil!)
