December 1st

Chères amies!

Can you believe it is the first day of December already? For us this is the start of a month filled with cosyness and pretty things. What is better than reading under a blanket on the sofa with a cup of hot coco or home made ginger tea? What feels more cozy than lighting candles all over the house. Who does not like this time of year where you have plenty of excuses to bake lovely cake, muffins, pies and onther yummy treats?
And if all that isn't enough already you also get to adorn your house with lovely ornaments, lights and bits of nature! I started making a small collection of fabric hearts from left-over fabric scraps to hang in our Christmas-tree and elsewhere in the house. Making them is like ointment to my soul. It makes me feel all relaxed. They give you a healthy dose of instant-gratification, since they take no time to make. And they are so pretty to look at. And the fact that you are recycling left-over material feels like you're doing something useful and good.

Bisous,
Isis

Fashion on Tuesday

I took my cuppa tea today while scrolling trough Fashion Gone Rogue, my favourite website for editorials, lookbooks an ad campaigns. I found this absolutely delicious Louboutin Fall 2011 Lookbook! All the pictures are inspired by classic paintings. Lovely don't you think?

Bonjour mes chèries!

As you must know, us thé dansant-girls love drinking Tea. But do you know what we even love more? Drinking Tea...on a picknick! A slice of quiche, Greek salad, homemade scones with strawberry jam and Tea! If you should happen to think of anything more delicious than that, prey do tell me ;)

Oh, and don't you agree that having picknick on a boat must be highly romantic?

Bisous,

Tea Tuesday with birthday cake

Hello my dears!

This Tuesday is pretty special because it's my 22nd birthday! So I thought we could share a cup of tea and some birthdaycake with candles - and of course cupcakes! I'd love to just lay in bed and be lazy all day, reading a classic while enjoying my cake. But alas! I have to study for my exams...
Since I'm having an English exam on Thursday, I figured it wouln't do any harm to take a little break and spend some time on writing a post here. I'm practising my English after all, aren't I?!

Bisous!

PS: In case you were wondering: the Louboutins are just there because they are so pretty and I want them ;)

Tribal Thursday

Hello dears!

As you might have noticed our blog has laid a little low lately. Unfortunately other obligations have been getting in the way, inhibiting us from posting! But as I found a little spot in my agenda, I decided it was time for us to have a chat again, cause I dare say I've really missed our teaparties ;)

So I hope enjoy this colourful combination of tribal-inspired items. I for one am totally swooning for Olivia Palmero's jacket!

Bisous!

Raspberry cake

Bonsoir mes filles!

Today I will share with you a delicious and super healthy sugar free cake recipe!

You will need:

200g flour
125ml milk
125g buter
125 g raspberries
3 eggs
1tsp stevia
1tsp baking soda

All you needs do do is mix everything together and gently add the raspberries at the end. Then put your batter in cupcake papers in a baking tin and voila, they are ready to bake at 170 C degrees for about 25 minutes.

Another Tuesday, another cuppa tea! This week we gathered up some pitures from the Thé Dansant Group on Flickr, where you guys share your adorable tea stories with us! This week we are loving bright pops of green, be it from flowers on the table or mintcoloured nailpolish!

Santé!

Bonjour!

I'm typing this post with Hot Pink fingernails. As you might have guessed already: that colour has been my obsession lately! It's perfect to add a girly touch and it can be edgy at the same time! If I wouldn't contain myself, I would be out now, buying a whole new pink wardrobe: pants, top, scarf, blazer, shoes, bag,...It all look so fash in pink! Though I have to say, when it comes to this colour, it's better to stick to one statement piece. Unless you want to look like fluorescent Barbie, that is!

Bisous, bisous!

Tea Tuesday

Restyle on Etsy

Bonjour mes chéries!

Oh oui, it is again such a long time ago that we found the time to chat over a nice cup of hot tea! It is a shame really! But we have been utterly busy I dare say. Though not always Thé Dansant-related. Too often school and work take the first place on our to do-lists... So our blog and shop have been functioning merely on survival mode.

But, we musn't despair, spring has begun and sunshine gives us fresh energy! It might blow a fresh wind through Thé Dansant headquarters!

In the meantime dear readers: You are all as precious to us as cups of tea ;-)

Bisous,
Nimue
