Tart at Londons 40 Winks - The only afternoon tea date a gal should keep!

Posted on 4:54 AM by follow me


Launched in November 2009, Tart is a simmering orgy of fun, fashion and frivolity aimed at girls who want to put some old fashioned glamour back in to their lives. Hosted at the decadent 40 Winks by the dandyesque David Carter, pin-up queen Fleur De Guerre and Vintage Secret’s Naomi Thompson.

Recommended by Style Bible, the Saturday Times Magazine, Stylist, Glam.com, Le Cool, Amelia's Magazine, MyMetropole (Tart came 2nd in their list of London's top five places for afternoon tea), and with a rave review from the marvellous India Knight, Tart is the ultimate afternoon of naughty self indulgence, seductive style and decadent pampering. It has quickly established itself as one of London's must–do monthly events.
