A TEA PARTY BY DSO

{PLF blazer, topshop tank, vintage maxiskirt, parisian wedges, DSO pouch}

Last week, designer Dita Sandico Ong launched her new tea line called Tea. Inspired by famous historical women - Marie Antoinette, Frida Kahlo, Grace Kelly, Eva Peron and Audrey Hepburn - these blends of real tea leaves from the most aromatic flowers, Jasmine, Rose, Michelia Champaca, Lavender and Chrysanthemum, are now readily available to the young and old souls of Manila. You can read more about it here :)

An intimate tea party and a fashion show was held to celebrate Tea and I was lucky enough to take part in the festivities. Who knew that tea and fashion went well together? The answer: everyone, silly. ;) Here are some pictures from that afternoon:

the Tea station where you get to choose what blend you wanna drink

I really like the packaging and the descriptive cards. Super easy on the eyes :)

Marie Antoinette: the Invigorating blend

Eva Peron: the Rejuvenating blend

Audrey Hepburn: the Elating blend

Grace Kelly: the Soothing blend

Frida Kahlo: the Exhilarating blend

also got the chance to browse DSO's wrap collection. love the rich colors she used!

it's this shade of green that made green my favorite color some time back. sooo pretty!

a lemon yellow clutch that's perfect for summer!

speaking of spring/summer 2012, you can expect a lot of these 2 colors from DSO's collection :)

and the best part is that she uses local materials in her designs. :)
