It is time to stop getting the caffeine kick from coffee and start getting the daily kick from tea [or at least combine the two]. And while we’re at it; why not do it in style?

Gone are the giant tea mugs (please let them be gone, once and for all) and enter the lovely teacup and saucer. There is something to be said about drinking tea from a cup and saucer. Specially if it is from delicate bone china. And since I have a tendency to like slightly more modern items, the Kilim teacup and saucer designed by Jasper Conran for Wedgwood is a definite match made in heaven.

My favorites here are the red and orange combination. You buy these in a set of two; either orange/red or green/violet. $125 per set from www.wedgwood.com
