My birthday was back in April, but I'm just getting to post these. It's a shame I'm so late...as I love these pics and this restaurant. But better late than never, right? :)
For my bday, I wanted something special and super girly. So I asked my friends to bring their favorite head accessories and meet me at Crown and Crumpet, a tea place in San Francisco's Ghirardelli Square. It is full of hand sewn knick knacks, dainty tea cups, and adorable seating. In other words, a perfect venue for my love of a tea party consisting of my besties and lots of feminine photo opps.
I purchased my headband at BHLDN, the wedding website from Anthropologie. It is over-the-top, very femme, and kind of expensive. But, hey, it was my 35th birthday, and I didn't buy a new outfit. Instead, I got a new headpiece. It certainly got people talking and you either liked it or you hated it. I, for one, loved it. It was made for a wedding, for a bride. I love the sweet color mixed in with the black, and the feathers were very special.
I also loved my friend, J's top hat above. I voted him 'best accessory' (besides my own, of course!). Aren't my friends cuties?
I adore these two corners. I want them in my house. I think I'd like to get little monochromatic frames too, and put my cards in them. Whaddya think? :)
Thanks for visiting! Cheers!
hey, my bday was in april too!! seems like a really fun place for a bday! love the hair accessories!
