A Feature on MJ's Favorite little 'Corner' of the World ...

Our favorite little 'Corner' of the world was recently revered by Boston.com's Celia Nissen, a TNGG contributor ...

" Called “urban utopia” by one Yelp reviewer, Coolidge Corner is a trendy little spot right outside the city. Fifteen minutes by the Green Line (the C Line, which we all know is so much better than B Line) from downtown, it’s a spot to escape from for an afternoon. Check out these neat spots for a fun and carefree date...

We love the mention to our fellow to small businesses in the area - including visiting merchants for the weekly Farmer's Market - and urge you all to visit us on Beacon Street if you haven't been back in a while!

Surviving Irene...

(CLICK ON IMAGE FOR AN ENLARGED VIEW)

I couldn't resist jumping on the bandwagon and posting about Irene, just like the rest of my fellow East Coasters! I'd like to share with you Local Hem's "Hurricane Survival Kit," which they posted to their own blog today. Thanks, Local Hem! Totally agree with all your suggestions... Netflix even informed me this morning that Blue Valentine will be arriving in my mailbox just in time for the storm. Can't wait to hunker down with a movie under a cozy blanket while listening to the storm outside...

Oh and and PS. If the storm's got you stuck inside, remember that you can always shop Mint Julep online! http://store.shopmintjulep.com/ We're here for you 24/7 no matter the weather! XOXO

Fashion Faceoff!

Tibi does Hollywood! Blake Lively and Taylor Swift show off a beautiful floral number, each pairing it with fun pumps, and Jenna Ushkowitz from Glee and Shannon Woodward from Raising Hope flaunt two different versions of another stunning style by Tibi. Like our favorite part of People mag, we ask you: "Who wore it better!?"
XOXO Mintz and SG

Fall-time Tibi!

You may remember the beautiful 3/4 sleeve Tibi Draped Silk Chiffon Dress in IVORY from back in the Spring at Mint Julep. It graced our racks for a few short days before it was completely sold out, most likely because everyone who tried it on fell in love and had to have it. Well, ladies, guess what! It's BACK for the Fall in an autumnal shade of warm sienna. It sold so fast the first time that we were squealing when Tibi re-cut this beauty. Stop by soon to try it on for yourself... Surely it won't be long before it's gone!

HBJ Trunk Show!

Tonight our lovely Hannah Blount exhibited pieces from her beautiful jewelry line at a trunk show at Topaz, the little accessories shop tucked around the corner from Mint Julep in Harvard Square. Sara and I took turns making an appearance and showing our support for the jewelry designer who is nearest and dearest to our hearts. From her newest nautical line of shells and barnicle-splattered pieces to her signature egg line, Hannah's work looked absolutely beautiful. You can find her jewelry at Topaz regularly, but also visit www.HannahBlount.com to see the complete collections.

Well done, Hannah! Great job, as always! XOXO
