"Le Goûter"

Even though I can't wake up without a cup of caffeine, tea bags are still one of my most favorite things on earth. I have little tradition of my own no matter how busy I'm, I gave time to enjoy a cup of tea around 4 pm everyday basic. And I have to say my work place is quite dreamy to have lovely tea party of my own every evening; big see-through glass, all green views, often pouring rain, unknown red flowers blooming full on tree right besides our building. So this is a hint that all I'm gonna write later is about tea, more precisely revealing tea date photos. 





Honestly, one of my superficial wish is to enjoy a cup of tea at TWG tea saloon & boutique  because I'm so British wannabe freak and tea lover. After 6 years long stay in Singapore, my wish was fulfilled during 4 days visit to there. My first time experiencing fine hi tea set was great as I imagined. I still remember me acting all mature asking so many tea questions to waiter & obtain some useful tea tips and somehow reminded me of "breakfast at Tiffany" too out of nowhere. I must say tea culture is the most classiest act of all time. A little research shows that when the hour of Le Gouter (tea time) strikes, sometimes after and before 6, all Parisians can be found in cafes and tea parlors tucking into sweets of every sort and tea of their choice. The British may have trademarked afternoon tea, but the french Gouter is a tradition just as deeply woven into the culture. Anyway, this definitely is one best classy place for you to chill. My all time favorite out of different flavors available at TWG are emperor sencha, chamomile, Earl Grey and English breakfast tea and not to forget my macaroons babies ( I never say no to macaroons, they are my weakness :) ).

I was on cloud nine upon finding beautiful tea parlor quiet and spacious in yangon when I was back. My frequent visit to there is a proof of how much I love their place. This time, taking granted of their classy decoration, I decided to do a mini photo-shoot, lighting is not so impressive tho. As usual, me with tea and macaroons quiet Le Goûter was precious after heavy Japanese lunch.








What if I'm going to introduce you cheapest formal dress up way? Well, my prior plan was to do sequel of traditional dresses by my sister pair with my DIY colorful plain skirts, (yes! it wasn't sewed properly, just plain fabric wrapped in style around my waist). But it's quite cold to wake up every early raining morning so hoodies, jackets, cardigans, long pants, and leggings been my best friend and I don't have any occasions to dress up too formal lately. So let me just throw back some. 







Btw, I always love Alice in wonderland tea party inspired theme photo-shoot in deep forest. Isn't it beautiful? (photo credit - Google)
