(Not to mention so exquisitely beautiful.)ĭear friends, when is the last time you did something as fun as attending a grown-up tea party? And, what I’m really getting at here is… will you be watching the wedding of the decade* along with the other (estimated) two billion of us? □ (And she totally deserves the royal treatment herself!) But I’ll tell you what… prim, proper, and lovely has never been so appealing or so much fun. Sara’s garden party High Tea was the closest thing most of us will get to anything resembling royal treatment anytime soon. Our Prim & Proper Polo is a wardrobe staple for your little gent Featuring Barbados Blue and a Richmond Red stork, this polo was made for hitting the golf.

Farrow & Ball Prim & Proper is a great addition to the farrow & ball collection. ![]() Most likely we’ll be sipping tea, eating chocolate, and lighting up like school girls as we watch all the pageantry unfold in a land far, far away… imaginations running wild with thoughts of princes and princesses, castles and coaches. As this posts I’ll be preparing to pile into our living room with several girlfriends where we will “oooo” and “ahhh” over Kate Middleton’s dress, the flowers, the choir, the kiss… and all other things royal and weddingish. ![]()
