Matching Your Dress To Your Teaware Part 19: Apple Harvest!

Fall: The season for pumpkin bread, pumpkin spice lattes, warm apple cider, and apple harvests.


With this in mind, I figured this first day of Fall would be the perfect time for this apple themed Perfect Pairing.

I found this vintage apple shaped teapot at the Etsy shop, Snapshots Through Time. I was immediately drawn to the gorgeous red hue of the teapot. The color in conjunction with the high gloss glaze gives this teapot the sense of a perfectly ripe apple. To help give this teapot even more visual interest, the handles and spout of the teapot are formed in the shape and texture of branches from which the apple has come from.

I can just imagine the scene... sitting inside in a cozy warm corner, taking refuge from the chill of the outdoor Autumn air while pouring warm apple spice flavored tea from this pot!

Of course, no pairing would be complete without a proper and perfectly paired dress to wear. The Sheila dress by Hell Bunny is just the dress with its all over apple print against its mild green background. It's no surprise to see how this dress is the perfect pair for this apple teapot. The light weight fabric and modest cut of this dress with its high neckline and gathered short sleeves makes it perfect for the changing season where there is a crispness to the air yet where it's not quite cool enough to warrent the heavier fabrics or warmer coats of winter just yet.

Fall is one of the most perfect seasons in my opinion. Put on a pot of tea and watch the leaves fall one by one to the ground.

      Thanks Harlow! I'm kind of terrible. I have the pale blue version too because I couldn't decide which I liked more! :O LOL You should get it though! It's such a nice, flowy, lightweight fabric! It would look perfect on you!

      I love these dresses! And I love that they came out in so many colorways! I really love how it's apple too. Not a very usual fruit to see on a dress. And yes! Isn't that teapot gorgeous! <3
