This past weekend I had the amazing experience of going to the Mary Cassatt room in Rittenhouse square for high tea. Amazing is actually an understatement. My cousin and I decided to take my mommom there for her birthday, and it truly passed every single expectation I could have had. Classy is also an understatement if I may add. It was beyond elegant, and I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel like I was channeling my inner Blair Waldorf. I didn’t hesitate to take pictures of every single thing, because frankly it blew my mind how beautiful the whole experience was.
If you enjoy tea, then you would be in your version of heaven. Personally, I am not a fan but decided to try something with some vanilla and caramel in it. Although I didn’t hate it… I think I will stick to coffee.
As for my outfit, I could kick myself for rushing because I did have the perfect vision planned in my head. However, me being myself, I didn’t have enough time to figure out every detail so decided to go a different route. I wore a navy and cream sweater dress that was purchased several years ago from Century 21 and my black Lucky Brand wedges.
Pictures are the only thing that will do this experience slight justice unless you experience it for yourself. Not one napkin was left unfolded, the service was fabulous, and all around it was beyond memorable. I hope you enjoy!
