The humidity has been unbearable this summer...and I was very happy to say the least once the weather became more pleasurable throughout this week. Today I even caught an occasional breeze :)

I am highly anticipating Fall this year and realized that September is right around the corner...After sifting through my huge closet of inventory I pulled out a few vintage coats to introduce the Fall Sneak Peak...enjoy!

bold prints...

I've always inspired to wear such gorgeous, bold prints as the ones above...Anthropologie has forever remain  known for their creative, festive frocks...the 3 looks above are older favorties of mine from Anthro's past collections a few years ago...just a reminder that these prints really do carry over -timeless...

perfect lemonade recipe...

I discovered these photos today...although taken a while back, these images are very summery and somehow  remind me of my childhood favorite...homemade lemonade.

• 1 cup sugar (can reduce to 3/4 cup)
• 1 cup water (for the simple syrup)
• 1 cup lemon juice
• 3 to 4 cups cold water (to dilute)

1 Make simple syrup by heating the sugar and water in a small saucepan until the sugar is dissolved completely.
2 While the sugar is dissolving, use a juicer to extract the juice from 4 to 6 lemons, enough for one cup of juice.
3 Add the juice and the sugar water to a pitcher. Add 3 to 4 cups of cold water, more or less to the desired strength. Refrigerate 30 to 40 minutes. If the lemonade is a little sweet for your taste, add a little more straight lemon juice to it.
Serve with ice, sliced lemons.
Serves 6

poolside...

I'm currently searching for the perfect poolside outfit this summer. Rompers just seem to be simple and easy without sacrificing too much style. The stripe romper above is classic...

clogs state of mind...

Lately I have been very obsessed with finding the perfect pair of clogs to wear with my summer dresses and skirts...I remember I had a fantastic white leather pair in Middle School...and believe it or not I was considered a nerd for wearing them..oh how times have changed :) 
Here are a few that I absolutely love...especially the Mui Mui floral print pair!

Miu Miu Satin Daisy-Print Clog, $495

March has finally arrived and the weather has blossom into bright sunshine and blue sky's.

much much more...

I'm a little late... but I just purchased a 2010 calender yesterday and was excited to discover that Daylight Saving Time actually begins next week? This is fantastic new's for me, since I adore 'longer' days which is traditionally accompanied with much warmer weather.
The winter is fastly leaving and I couldn't be much happier!
I'm ready for easy-breezy cotton summer dresses and frequent evening trips to Dairy Queen for strawberry sundaes...
As for the Mod store... I've added a bunch of GOREGOUS retro handbags that will look classic worn in the Spring/Summer... another way to describe them...simply TO.DIE.FOR (in my Rachel Zoe voice)
:)

simple day pouches...and an evening bag...

Another batch of lovely retro handbags were added to the shop this evening~
Isn't the madras plaid coin pouch just adorable?! It reminds me of summer trips to Cape Cod...

Market Shopping

I went to the market and purchase a bottle of Moscot wine, bread and all sorts of fruit...strawberries, blueberries, grapes and cherries...awww' It's nothing like lounging on a cool, summer afternoon, while enjoying fresh sweet fruit & wine. Oh boy...I'm certainly going to miss the summer...

Tres chic

Hi Friends,

I am terribly sorry for not writing lately :(

Life has been crazy... However in the mist of all the chaos, I manage the time to load new merchandise into the shop. I'm talking, 'Betty Davis sunglasses heaven'...These antique glasses are so' posh, I decided to keep a pair for myself :)
