ATTENTION: NEW BLOG!!!

Hello, all...

Well, dah-lings. TwoforTea has run it's course and finished well. But what with life changes like graduation, marriage, moving, jobs, and so forth...well...Jessica and Cambria have decided the joint blogging days are yesteryear. While we are still the closest of friends and both style afficiandos, it's just too difficult to share a blog when we're not sharing a closet and a schedule!!!

BUT I (Cambria)am now moving on to a new personal blog. I've titled it "Jupe" and I'm planning on updating at least four times a week, or as much as possible.

So if you don't mind switching your allegiance to a new name and blog face, stop by and check the new one out :)

SEE YOU THERE!!!

Honeymooning, Honey

Just a few quick shots from the honeymoon today!

I had so much fun looking taking and looking at these photos because they were all with a disposable camera. You know that age-old thing about brides forgetting to pack toiletries on their honeymoon? Well, heck, I had plenty of those--I just plumb forgot a camera. Gracious. But as it turned out, the kinda grainy, washed-out, crooked look of these photos really amps up the vintage feel we had for our wedding. So I'm IN LOVE with them!!!

I'm Married...I'm Mrs. Jones!!!

Well, ladies...
The illustrious day has finally passed.

The wedding march has played (with beautiful violin and piano, nonetheless).
Almond cakes have been eaten,
pinstripes have been well worn,
aaaaaaand I've had my first kiss :*

So here's a quick selection of photos right off the bat for you to enjoy! More to follow, if you so please! Comment and let me know what you think/what you'd like to see.

Heavens to Betsy!!!!!

Oh my stars and garters...
Hello blog! Sorry to have neglected you... Lots has happened since we last blogged...
In a nutshell...I'll add more pictures for your viewing pleasure later.

1. Roisters-the annual theater banquet...also an excuse to dress a little nutty and do strange things that only people in the theater world understand...like, a balloon parade through downtown. Alas, in all the craziness, C and I didn't get a picture together on our camera... So, here's one of me and Nate, unintentionally matching.


2. We hung out with Shasta from The Traveling Cabinet and made bracelets for darling children and a great cause... Check out the link here
Isn't she lovely? :)


Here we are...looking a tad awkward. And the bracelets, not looking awkward. :)



3. Cambria graduated!!! I don't have a picture of her...but, this is pretty much the same thing... ;)


4. We moved out of our beloved apartment.

5. Caitlin went home to Washington state, because she's getting married in FIVE DAYS!!!!! EEK!
And I bet you all are wondering what the stylish couple wears when they go out on a rainy morning?


Aren't they just the cutest?
They love each other. So great.

6. I also wore clothes out in the rain...want to see that? ;)

Don't mind the rain drops...they didn't hurt.

Whew. That was a lot of catching up. I know I missed somethings...so I'll fill you in as we go along.
Thanks for not ditching us...it might get a little crazy around here in the next couple weeks, what with weddings happening left and right... Stay tuned!!

Love,
Jessica :)

Hello, Dah-ling: Sailing to Rome

Have you ladies seen this gorgeous new summer dresses from Shabby Apple? Now, I know that I've bragged on their sweet and classy styles before...but these two new collections are really stunning. I think I'd wear 'em every day this season if I could only buy that many new dresses :)

For instance...today. My lovely roommates are throwing me a "friends" bridal shower tonight. And for another instance tomorrow...when my mom's pastor's wife (isn't that complicated) is throwing me a "church ladies" bridal shower. I just realllly am craving some Shabby Apple to wear!

Top two favs at the moment for the bridal shower scene:

Toe the Line from the Set Sail collection...not only is this the perfect relaxed little dress for a casual shower, but it's gearing riiiiiight up for the summer weather we've finally had here in Minnesota :)

Palatine Hill from the Roamin Holiday collection...perfect for an old-fashioned church brunch shower, yes? And then I could wear it out on the town to celebrate later at night. Told you it was versatile :)

Dreams are nothing more than wishes...

Well!
It's here. The last two weeks before finals and our lives are suddenly even more of a whirlwind...and I know this because I have seen the walls of the library more than I have seen my roommates. :(
Oh, the life of a college student, right?
This outfit I am wearing is actually what I am wearing for a skit I am in. I love this dress...it has pockets and that 1950's silhouette that I just can't resist (Cambria can't either; she bought the same one!), I can't wait to wear it this summer! :)

Until tomorrow my dears,
Jessica

Still I Wonder Why It Is...

Oh, hey... how about some more pictures from a shoot long ago? These were in January and taken by my dear friend Adam. Check out his page HERE . He is totally legit and a blast to work with! I hope to be able to work with him some day soon...

So, how was your day? Anything you are looking forward to this week?

Oh! And we are so close to 100 followers!! Don't you think something cool should happen when we hit triple digits?!?
I do.
I guess we will see what happens! :)

Until next time kids,
Love,
Jessica

It's Just A Little Bit Of Wackadoo, Really

Hello my dears :)
These pictures are all the way from October! Would you believe I never shared them with you?
My friend Ellie Herringshaw (check her out HERE ) called me up one morning and told me she found this saweet abandoned warehouse and we were to do a photoshoot there. I should wear this dress, make my hair look all crazy, put on that red lipstick, and bring some sass.
So, here is what we got from it. I haven't received copies of the other ones yet... But these are still kind of fun, right? :)

Oh, and how great is this dress? I borrowed it ages ago from a theater company that has since disintegrated... It's appeared onstage in a performance of Footloose, I wore it to sing All that Jazz (from Chicago) for a variety show, and now it's been in a photoshoot. I love the Marilyn Monroe vibe it gives off... and I wonder where it will appear next? :)

Until next time (when we take outfit pictures...)
Love,
Jessica :)

Sweet and Lovely

Meet Nate!
He enjoys throwing baseballs at girls (especially ones who are distracted while playing catch...not speaking from experience...), novel t-shirts, flying kites, eating jell-o, and petting puppies.
He was walking back from lunch with us and we had to feature him on Two for Tea. So, there ya go...Nate. Also, that would be Jesus smiling on his shirt. There was much speculation on who it might be... but it is in fact, Jesus.


Today was sunny. And oh, so gorgeous...However, the sun made picture taking a little challenging... Sorry, Cambria, for the "not ready" picture... :/

Doesn't she look great though? She's especially dolled up today because her play is opening tomorrow night!!! It's tradition in the theater department to dress snazzy on opening night, but since we don't have class tomorrow, the "look really great day" got pushed to today! I am so excited to see her perform tomorrow!!

I'm watching You've Got Mail and feeling warm and fuzzy...this and Singing in the Rain are my "happy movies" :)

What's your happy movie?






Love,
Jess

You Know, She's Happy As Can Be

Today's photos were taken in under 5 minutes. Yes, that's right--Jessica and I managed to herd out of all-campus chapel, get into the sunshine, pose, and snap two photos each before she rushed off to the opposite end of campus for her gym class. Now, the down side of our wickedly quick photo shoot was the fact that we couldn't pick an exactly ideal location. We had to work with our surroundings...

which is my long-winded explanation for why these photos include a red sports car, also depict a crouching man in a tuxedo, and captured us both at some rather unflattering angles.





In other news, this high-low hem is my new addiction. I LOVE THIS SKIRT. It's soooo swishy and floaty and fabulously displays my ankles. Mmmmmmm.

Introducing...Style Rewind

Today I would to introduce a new feature on Two for Tea called..."Style Rewind." Every week, Jessica and I are going to choose a historical trend or style icon from the past and create an outfit to reflect that era/individual's fashion choices...with clothes from our own closets!

Be prepared to see everything from flappers, to hourglass silhouettes, to Katharine Hepburn, to the Victorian Era :)





More tomorrow!!!

I'd Rather Waste Time With You

Meet Ari.

She's our unofficial, half, pseudo-roommate. Self-styled English afficiando and conservative political guru...with a little historian and vocal performance on the side. We actually rearranged our apartment this semester and threw a bed in the living room for her. No, seriously. We did. It doubles as a couch during the day.

Anyways, the point is...Ari is our lovely lady friend...and we decided that today was the perfect day to showcase her perfect representation of the college student wardrobe :D





On another note...this outfit has appeared about three other times on this blog this year--all with some variation of STRIPED SKIRT, solid shirt, kitschy necklace, tights, and boots. But I swear, I've never ever ever ever worn this exact combination before. So there.

<3 Cambria

Mmmmm, Mmmm Good

To start off with:
THE FRUIT PIZZA!!!





And who can resist boys in aprons???
