A couple weeks ago I had an opportunity to wear my new Teens outfit again to the Costumer’s Guild West Holiday Tea. The unofficial theme was 19th Century, but that means it’s a bit of a free-for-all in terms of time period. It’s just a nice excuse to get dressed up and meet up with friends! I carpooled with my friend Laura, and she was very gracious that I made us late for the event. I’m not used to anyone in L.A. being punctual, so I was very surprised to be among the last to arrive!
I don’t have a “proper” hat for this outfit yet, but since the main event was afternoon tea, I decided to throw on a little knit beret. It’s a bit small for the period, but if I have to do it wrong, I figure I might as well err on the side of being more chic! I realize now that I did miss out on the chance to add some nutty pom-poms onto it, though.
