Straight Up Snippets: The Berkeley Hotel - Prêt-à-Portea Afternoon Tea

Even though this is a beauty blog, I couldn't help but post about the awesome time I had at The Berkeley Hotel. Last Friday, my friend Carrie & I were invited to have afternoon tea but with a fashion twist - my two favourite things: fashion and sweet treats! Each dessert was based on a S/S '13 trend and this season they were inspired by designers such as Balenciaga, Prada and Jason Wu - I headed straight for the Balenciaga chocolate cake! I am not a big tea drinker (or any hot drinks for that matter) but I did order the Chocolate Mint Truffle tea however after a few sips as I was straight back on the champagne! The divine ambiance was complimented by the outstanding service and I guess the company wasn't too bad either ;)

After stuffing our faces we had a quick wander around Knightsbridge and somehow ended up in ZARA - of course I just HAD to buy some pieces from their new collection....
