if music be the food of love, play on!









Music festival season is upon us!! Between Ultra Music Festival happening last weekend and having just bought my Bonnaroo tickets, I am officially pumped for the music and the fashion that comes along with it. Music festivals are a place to be daring with your style and between the heat, energy, and good vibes, really fun outfits can be rocked to the fullest. Come on in to Mint Julep to be styled head 2 toe in festival worthy getup's. Here are three funky ideas from me to you...................

It's All Happening






After a rainy morning here in NYC, the sun has finally peeked through the clouds. It's supposed to be in the 60's tomorrow and Friday and the thought of warmer weather has me craving the summertime. I can't wait to be able to throw on a dress, like the Free People one below, and walk out the door!

A Visit to Avoca!




Greetings from Dublin!!! Here I am in front of one of the Avoca stores in Ireland! At Mint Julep we've carried a selection of their adorable dresses and rain jackets, but I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw what the Avoca shops are really like. During a day trip to Wicklow County, a ways out from the city, I even got to visit their original store, which was set on a huge property amid the beautiful rolling greens of the country. Each of the stores has the cutest homewares alongside the racks of clothes, and the best part of each shop had to have been the BAKERY! Best cinnamon bun I've ever had.
This Spring, we are expecting some more merch from this fabulous Irish company, so stay tuned to see what those Irish have in store for us!
XOXO

Pistachio Belts!

They're back by popular demand! A new shipment of handmade "snake" belts have just arrived from our favorite vintage vixen, Marisa Danielle. Sinch a tired long-sleeved slub at the waist with your favorite pair of skinny jeans to create a new silhouette from an old look. Or, jazz up a basic shift dress with one of these and a pair of metallic pumps--you're ready for cocktail hour!

It's the Simple Things...

The end of winter can cause a torrent of emotions: anxious anticipation of the warm sun, bitter resentment toward yet another snowfall, or boredom from donning the same boots day-after-day. It's times like these that I like to focus on the little things that make everyday life just a little happier. Here's a few "simple pleasures" that get me through the single-digit-degrees... perhaps they can help you hold out until the sundresses and espadrilles too!

A printed Marimekko automatic mini umbrella $28. With the freakish amount of precipitation we've gotten this season, I've had my duck boots and umbrella handy at all times. Brighten up a dreary disposition with a pop of color from your pop-out umbrella, for the next time is starts to "wintry-mix"!


The perfect-fitting pair of denim $134-$188. Nothing makes me feel better than a great pair of jeans. We have a style, brand--and length--for everyone! Stop by for a one-on-one consult to find the best fit for your body!


One of Aunt Sadie's Scented candles $16. Few things beat a sweet smelling living room when I'm cozied up with a crossword. And the new spring and summer scents transport my mind to warmer places!


A crisp new Last Tango tank $32. Perk up an outfit by pairing one of these puppies with your favorite neutral cardigan - great to coordinate with a favorite pair of flats or bling earrings!


JPK Paris 75 tote bag in Grass $198. Defy the drab duds of winter with a vibrant colored tote bag! Carrying my gym clothes or paperwork in one of these makes me smile despite the blaring winds!
