There\u2019s something oh so classy and sophisticated about indulging in afternoon tea. Gone are the days of feather boas and luminous pink hen parties. Us ladies want to feel very girly and grown up and girly as we gossip with our gals over an obligatory glass of Prosecco in our manicured hands. The dainty sandwiches, pretty desserts and tiered silverware make us feel very important indeed.
