Feather and Lace.

5.18.2011

Hi there!! No sun here in New York, rain, rain, rain!  This was taken a few days ago when the sun was here on a little thrift store trip with my roomie + blogger + my photo taker Brittany.  I am wearing this same outfit as I am getting ready to go to a party at the  Ace Hotel.  But switching to some docs, oh how i love my doc martins~they always save the day!!  AND I am loving wearing this feather in my hair, possibly the new bow?

outfit: vintage lace top, vintage skirt, vintage shoes, vintage mini back pac from Stella Dallas

Every time I check out Zarna’s Runway I always know I will be presented with an array of beautiful bold colors.  Zarna’s eclectic style has a way of mixing modern with traditional so seamlessly.  So I had no choice but to make her part of my Fan Club Series!!

Cocktail Hour: Make your own Cocktail Garden.

5.10.2011

The sun has arrived!!  Time to grow those lovely little herbs to make some yummy cocktails!! I have been collecting some old coffee cans to make into little gorgeous plant holders!!  I finally caught the chalkboard buzz and decided to paint them on the cans so I can label what I am planting.  I love how they turned out!!

What you will need:
~coffe tins
~Nail + Hammer to make holes
~paint brush
~Chalkpaint
~Chalk
~Dirt
~Herbs  (Cilantro, Mint, and Basil are great for cocktail making)

collect a few coffee cans, or any other tin cans you have. Poke a few holes on the bottom to make it a plant holder.

paint a few coats with Chalkpaint and let dry.  For planting I used Cilantro, Mint and Basil.  I have had great luck planting with Cilantro and Basil from the seeds.  I haven’t tried Mint yet, so I picked up some already grown.  It depends how patient you are 🙂  Basil usually grows like wildflower from the seed, at least from my experience 🙂

label with chalk!

I made this lovely Mint Ice Tea, a little later in the day I added  2 0z of Malibu Rum and headed to the rooftop to enjoy the sun! And there is a perfect summer cocktail!!
