The Perfect Tea Party Hostess

I celebrated a small tea party at home the other day and I wanted it to be perfect :) But how?

First of all I decided to wear the perfect outfit, and if you think perfect you have to go GINGHAM! :) So I wear the beautiful dress I got a few weeks ago at the charming Maria's store, Adelaide's Homeshewn. 

2)  Perfect table, perfect biscuits, perfect tea :)

3) Perfect apron, gingham of course! :)

Final step: Smile!

Ready!

Honey, ah sugar sugar

And you've got me wanting you

I know most of you are used to muffins, cupcakes, cookies and all that sweet stuff, but we don't usually have such things in Spain --we have different ones though--. So I was so excited about going to a new bakery that opened recently in the center of Madrid called Happy Day, it defenetely made my day! I'm returning soon for sure, I'm just a candy girl! :)
