We're going to be famous!

We're excited to share that Mint Julep was recently part of the MTV show Made and that we will be making a cameo appearance on an episode tentatively scheduled for May. We'll keep you posted on the dates, times, and other applicable details. Wish us luck!

Crazy for clutches!

**Update** we just received another shipment of Lauren Mirken in Harvard Sq. Patent leathers!
Mint Julep is currently home to some really gorgeous clutches. From Orla Kiely to Lauren Mirken (designer of the above pieces), we got totally one of a kind pieces in vibrant colors like cobalt blue, mustard yellow, and sparkly gold. And we're not stopping with leather this season, we've also got straw and canvas thrown into the mix. These beauties are going fast so come take one home with you today!

Rainy day fashions

New England is notorious for its up and down weather this time of year. Opposite some really beautiful days are the one that are still downright crummy and your fabulous fashion attempts remain covered up. That being said, Mint Julep has several gorgeous trenches that allow you to show your style on the outside. Whether you're into subtle colors like khaki or if your taste leans towards sunny yellow, we can probably hook you up with a coat you'll be proud to wear.

Orla Kiely Clothes!

Not only is she the mastermind behind her wildly popular handbags, Orla also does clothes. Really gorgeous clothes. The dresses, skirts, and shirts in the collection are colorful and comfy, and some incorporate her ever evolving stem print patterns. We think this spring line is some of her best work so come check it all out!

Helena de Natalio handbags

These new handbags have a lot going for them. Their leather is buttery soft, their colors are striking but subtle, and their designer cares a lot about the people that work for her. Handmade in Buenos Aires, Argentina by Helena de Natalio, these bags are created through socially responsible production and fair labor practices.

Spring scarves!

These springy and colorful scarves give us all hope that summer will eventually arrive!

Odd Molly

Our favorite Swedish designer has created another stunning collection of colorful basics, cozy spring sweaters, and some really amazing embroidered dresses. Come visit!

Aunt Sadie's candles

Here in their cute little tins and smelling oh sooo good, Aunt Sadie's candles have arrived. Try the non-chemically smelling Wacky Lemons for your kitchen or the new and relaxing Tranquility for your bedside table. Oh and watch out for the pink plaid clad Chocolate candle, it smells so good-enough-to-eat, it will have you banging down doors for a Hershey's bar.

At last, Orla Kiely's spring collection!

Our Mint Julep Holiday Party!

We wanted to share a shot of the Mint Julep girls having fun and celebrating the holidays at Ivy this past December.

New York, New York!

After a long day of buying in NYC, here we are happily relaxing with some dear friends. Among the familiar faces, are our former manager Rebecca and her business partner, Laura of Crush Boutique and our former employee and jewelry designer, Hillary Dutcher of Ivy Hill Boutique in Colombus, OH. Once a Mint Julep girl always a Mint Julep girl!

Rose Jewelry Alert!

Just so you all know, we've just opened hordes of rose earrings and rings in all sorts of lovely colors. Come visit!

The jeans are coming to Harvard Square!

We've got a new array of denim at our Harvard location! Our freshly constructed denim wall (courtesy of several trips to Home Depot) is host to our old favorites as well as some beautiful new styles never before seen at 6 Church St. Come check out vampy black JBrands, high-rise Citizens of Humanity in a springy light-wash, and Ravens that fit just about anyone perfectly.

Bathing Suits in January!

In spite of the treacherous slush I just trudged through, I'm still finding it impossible to fight those first twinges of excitement over the onset of Spring. It is probably partially due to the recent shipment of stunning Shoshanna bathing suits we recently put on display at Mint Julep. Not only are they perfect for all you lucky people going on vacation, but they provide those of us staying home with the much needed reminder that Summer is just around the corner.

Bling!

It's true that JoJo Bling earrings make a perfect gift for all your bestest friends, but since Christmas is over, we think it's high time that you went ahead and treated yourself to a pair. A new shipment has arrived with loads of fabulous colors and we have not only regular sized Bling, but also the new, slightly less conspicuous, Baby Bling. Some of our favorites include the Baby Bling in a very wearable Champagne and regular Bling in a stunning shade of kelly green. But don't take our word for it, come in and check everything out!

SALE!

If Christmas is the happiest time of the year, the Mint Julep January sale is a close second. Starting this weekend and ending when it's all gone, our sale will feature pretty party dresses, cozy sweaters, and much more from our fall and winter lines. It's going to be fun so stop by and visit!

The general consensus seems to be that super tight dresses, (and moderately tight dresses for that matter) look better, wear better, FEEL better with a nice pair of Spanx hiding underneath. We have everything from the basic Power Panties, to body slimming full slips, to totally opaque reversible tights. And since all of the Mint Julep girls wear them, any of us can help you find the perfect size and style to fit your body and lifestyle.

HUM Designs Customized Necklaces

Made by Washington based design Shannon Stewart, these necklaces give a personal touch to your holiday gifts. Have initials, special dates, or whatever your little heart’s desire, custom hammered onto disks in either 14k gold or sterling silver. What's even better is that ten percent of all HUM profits are donated to World Vision, a micro-enterprise that provides entrepreneurs in developing countries with small loans to help them get their businesses up and running. Give us a call or stop by the store if you'd like to place an order!

We hope to see you all there!
