Would you like some more tea, Miranda Kerr?

The answer is yes! The 31-year-old supermodel helped design a line of tea sets and plates with Royal Albert China, and on Friday, the collection launched at a pop-up store in Sydney, Australia.

Miranda, who looked breathtaking in a color-blocked white and pink dress, brought her grandmother Ann to the event! She Instagrammed a cute shot of the twosome drinking out of ornately decorated cups, writing, "Tea for two with my Nan." Orlando Bloom's ex Instagrammed several more pictures from the tea party, too, showing fine chinaware, covered in varying floral and butterfly patterns.

"Friendship is the basis of the collection," she told the Telegraph, when asked about the inspiration behind her Royal Albert line. It's about "having tea with friends and taking time to sit down and connect, especially in the busy world of today."

"I would sit and talk to my grandmother a lot about certain things," she recalled. "Her prize possession was her tea set. She had this little tea set, and all the bits and pieces that go with it. Little ornate objects in this cabinet. We'd sit, and she'd say, 'Let's have a cup of tea.'"

How fitting that Miranda's grandmother now gets to celebrate this event with her granddaughter!
