BLOGGER NYC STAY-CATION: GIRLS TRIP HIGH TEA

 After a nights rest from the first day of our vacation (see blogger stay-cation day 1) we headed to the city for brunch.  As we're all bloggers, you know we had to do Start our second day off big right?

In car makeup came out really good

Sunday high tea and brunch at the illustrious Alice's Tea Cup II....that's a great way to start!!!
First, a little about Alice's Tea Cup. The atmosphere is great for conversation, laughter and some fun. Growing up I never watch Alice In Wonderland (the basis for the restaurant) but my blogger boos set me strait so I would understand the restaurant theme more.  I was the only one mad because the tea cups and plates didn't match.  I know better now.  I loved the quaintness of the restaurant (if you can even call it that) and the atmosphere was amazing.   Plus you may get a celebrity citing.  Don't forget this is the location for movies such as "Trainwreck" so you never know when Amy Schumer or Scarlett Johansen will walk by your table and say hello (second part really happened).

The food at Alice's Tea Cup was amazing too. The food was just AMAZING!!! Our three tier brunch of finger sandwiches, scones plus omelets and three different kinds of tea was perfect for a Sunday brunch.  Not to mention some tea infused drinks that were the perfect topper.

My brunch was looking right!!!!

Everyone brunch was good too!!! 

After brunch what comes next....photos.

We took photos in our Sunday best.  Had a complements all through the streets and we snapped away.  How great we looks and ANOTHER celebrity citing and complement from Jerry Seinfeld.  Thanks to Eloquii, were we able to really show our fashionable Sunday wear.  I love that we all decided to wear color, patterns and designs to show how girls of all size can wear any pattern or color.  We range from 10-28, traditional to sporty, tall to short with all different body types but I have to say we looked really good today.  Here are photos from the day.

Special shout out to our Sponsor Eloquii and Alice's Tea Cup for an amazing day.
