My "Green Tea" Minidress and Scarf
This is my "green tea" outfit! Brought to me by my fashion-forward friends! This outfit has a story...
Part One: While in India at the Glenburn Tea Estate, my room friend MJ comes to the room with this AMAZING scarf! It's a silk/cotton blend, it hangs so lovely, it's got a great hand feel, it's got the tea leaf/flower on it, it's perfect!
I didn't buy one. Why? I don't know. Sometimes I get that way. I was admiring MJ's scarf for the next few days, wishing I had indulged. You can imagine my delight when, a few days later, MJ handed me this scarf she had tucked away as a gift. SO thoughtful!
Part Two: I arrive home from China/India, weary and bleary. On the table to welcome me is a package from CO Tea Lover. Inside is this fantastic silk mini-dress. My friend found it in the Halloween section at a local thrift store! It's handmade, silk, lined with a lovely contrast fabric, and fits great! Of course, the best part is that it's a perfect match for the scarf. My green tea outfit, meant to be. Thank you to MJ and CO Tea Lover!
