Fall in July!

Today's forecast: 90 degrees. What perfect timing for all these sweaters and coats that are rolling through the door of Mint Julep! I must say, the fashion world is a crazy place...

Although it may be a steamy July day here in the real world, in the Fashion World, Fall is upon us! Get prepared for a chill to enter the air... After all, it's never too early to start your fall shopping! Especially when our racks are filled with adorable sweaters by Free People and 525 America sitting beside cozy coats by BB Dakota and Jack. Stop by your favorite Mint Julep locale to get first dibbs on our Fall merch. And if you're not quite ready to think "Fall" yet, not to worry; as the summer moves on, there will be lots more fabulous styles to come!

Mon Petit Chou Chou !

Our 'favorite little blogger,' Lani, of Mon Petit Chou Chou stopped in this week for a sneak peak at our much-anticipated Summer Sale. We were so pleased to play with her - dress-up really is the best pastime! Aside from snagging some serious steals - she snapped a few stunning shots of herself in soon-to-be-sale-items - here she is pictured in the Milly Chevron Maxi Dress (her photo)...


We hope you all check out Lani's blog - and make sure to scan my favorite recent post - her back deck makeover for July 4th - so savvy!


She certainly is the local authority on all things fashion, food and fun in Boston ... Mon Petit Chou Chou! Thanks for shopping with us, Lani!

A holiday weekend treat!

I enjoy a Mint Julep as much as the next MJ girl, but a 4th of July barbeque would not be complete without SANGRIA! As you're planning your own menu for this weekend's festivities, here is a recipe for white sangria I'm excited to share with you!
Ingredients: 2 bottles dry white wine; 3/4 cup brandy; 1/2 cup triple sec; 3/4 cup simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water, heat until sugar dissolves); 3/4 cup passion fruit puree; 3 oranges, sliced into thin rounds; 3 green apples, cored and sliced thin; 2 lemons, sliced into thin rounds. Combine all ingredients in a large pitcher. Refrigerate covered at least 3 hours. Serve over ice. Enjoy!
