Bright
summer colours were all the go as Killarney’s most glamorous ladies gathered
for an afternoon of high tea and high fashion at The Angsana Madhatters Tea
Party at The Brehon, Killarney last Saturday in aid of Bee for Battens.
Guests
were greeted with refreshing Long Island Iced Tea before before sitting down to
enjoy homemade lemonade. Vintage crockery sponsored by Enchanted Occasions of
Limerick lent an air of elegance to the tea service which included delicious
savouries followed by a buffet of sweet delights including cupcakes, cookies, strawberry
mousse and lollipops.

Owens’ insider tips on how to look your best at the Races and Milliner Kathleen
McAuliffe’s advice on how to give your old hats a new lease of life.
Hairstylist Pat O’Neill demonstrated how a few simple styling tricks can really
complement your hat or headpiece.
London
skin expert, Julia Ripley from Anne Semonin was also in attendance to launch
the new range of facials which are now available at The Angsana Spa at The
Brehon. The Anne Semonin facials combine the best of concentrated essential
oils and trace elements, together with the use of neurocosmetics and
cryotherapy to enhance your skin.

O’Neill, Clodagh Irwin Owens, Kathleen McAuliffe, Julie Ripley of Anne Semonin
