Eleanor: #5 ~ Afternoon Tea at Harrods

Bonjour!

On Saturday I celebrated my birthday up in London. Even though my birthday was back in September, the earliest reservation I could get for Afternoon Tea at Harrods was in November! (I also left the booking to last minute though!)

I brought five of my school friends and we did lots of shopping, drank bubble tea at Bubbleology in Harvey Nichols and of course ate Afternoon Tea at Harrods!

Here are some sweet sixteen birthday balloons my friend bought me! I carried them all around London - which annoyed several people who I hit in the face!

I'd never been to Bubbleology before so my friend, who adores it, made me try it out! It was actually delicious! I had apple flavour with passion fruit boba. So I'm no longer a Bubbleology virgin! Yay!

This is Harrods in the evening - all lit up with lights and look absolutely gorgeous.

And of course, here are several photos from inside when we were eating!

Harrods made me a beautiful cake with one of my nicknames, Elle, (that my school friends call me) written on it.

Eating mini macarons and feeling like Blair Waldorf. I visited Monte Carlo in half term for one of the weeks and my friend and I fell in love with macarons. (Also, Blair eats them all the time and visited Monte Carlo in Gossip Girl!)

A photo of me with the beautiful cake taken on my friend's polaroid camera.

So, as you can see, visiting Harrods for Afternoon Tea is a must! It isn't cheap though - £29 per person as well as service tax. However, it was worth all the money. I also bought a gorgeous new blazer as well as a silk kimono.

I don't usually buy things like kimonos but I fell in love with it when I saw it. I bought it in a size 10 as I wanted it to be baggy. I am usually a 6 or an 8 on my top.
