tea time at the greenhouse jefferson hotel

Pin It Now!

Having watched the characters of Downton Abbey, Upstairs Downstairs, and Cranford,ceaselessly gobbling scones and downing gallons of tea, I fancied myself a cup in town. I wanted a "proper" tea time with all the proper accoutrements. So off to The Greenhouse at the Jefferson hotel we went! The earl gray was the best I've had, the scones light and fluffy so unlike the ones I'm used to, and the cherry preserves to die for. And to boot I made Sean put on a proper suit so I could live out my British period drama fantasy!










On the drive back we popped off the GW parkway to enjoy a stunning sunset over the Potomac. The perfect end to a fabulous afternoon tea.

My first and only cropped sweater. This could lead to my other sweaters meeting a pair of scissors in the near future.

Because spring fashion shows preview fall fashion, I've decided to post a fall outfit. Though really it's because I haven't uploaded any spring looks yet and like I said in yesterday's post I'm super backlogged so expect to see random winter looks pop up in the middle of summer, you know just for fun!



And by the way can I tell you how ecstatic I was to find this giant scarf at H&M? I'd been searching for something similar forever and almost spent an outrageous amount of money on Etsy to have one made. A random stop at the H&M in Georgetown and low and behold there it was, the only one left! You can be sure I'll snuggle up in this scarf all next winter too.
