date night – Fashion Storyteller

Last week, I posted a new Marshalls Haul video! I went shopping in August for some summer night outfits for a fun girl’s trip. I’ve been travelling and I didn’t have a lot of dressy pieces with me. I decided to go to Marshall to see what they had for end of summer clearance items…I always am looking for a deal! In the video, I share what I picked up! You will see a few summer dresses, 2 handbags and 3 pairs of shoes! I wanted to be able to mix and match the accessories! Some of the pieces/outfits are transitional too, great as we head into autumn weather.

You can watch the video HERE or down below:

Have you gone to Marshalls lately? I have been loving seeing what they have for autumn decor too! Speaking of which, in addition to my @fashionstoryteller Instagram account, I recently created a home account too! It is called, @amagicalhome. Make sure to check it out!

For Valentine’s Day, my husband and I went for high tea, after work! We had made a reservation to one of our favourite high tea spots and had been looking forward to it, for quite a few weeks.

This particular high tea spot is soo wonderful if you have gluten, dairy allergies or are vegan. They have a wonderful set menu for each or both of the concerns, so you never feel you have to make special requests. I cannot have gluten or dairy, so I always get the vegan option. It is amazing and their Valentine’s Day high tea was so beautiful done.

Delicious dark chocolate, rose and coconut chocolate

Another lovely thing about this tea spot, is that you can have unlimited tea. This means, you can try a variety of tea and are not limited to one pot. If fact, you can even take a cup of tea to go, when you are done. And this is all included in both of their set high tea menus ($38 and $48 for the bubbly high tea).

They also steep and prepare the tea to the perfect temperature and time before bringing it to your table, so you are not obligated to time the steeping yourself. I love this because your tea is delicious and perfect upon serving!

They have a mix match of the cutest tea cups! And I also decided to go for a glass of rose!

They also have a large tea menu with the cutest names! Many of them are named after the fairytale, Peter Pan.

I love the tea, “Take Me To Neverland”. It is a mint and chocolate flavoured black tea.

So many delicious options to choose from…and you can try a variety!

The tea salon is decorated beautifully, with nods to Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland and beautiful balloon and tea inspired details.

Before heading out, you can take some treats to go too!

We had such a lovely time and my husband surprised me with some beautiful Valentine’s Day gifts, including two new Pandora charms! Stay tuned for an upcoming blog post on these items.

We had such a wonderful time! Always amazing service and a romantic, yet fun dining experience. After we were done, we got some teas to go, packed up some treats we were too full to finish and headed to go see the new movie, Alita!

How did you spend your Valentine’s Day?
