May Window Display

Paris is famous for how beautiful it is in the spring time, but it's not very realistic to simply fly over the ocean and experience the city of love first hand. That's why, for our May window, we've brought Paris to Girl Friday! So stroll past the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame Cathedral and the Arc Du Triomphe and make your way into our boutique this month to shop for some French-girl-worthy finds.

6 Cocktails to Mix This Weekend

When the weather warms up and the sun is shining, you know what that means -- it's patio season!

Serve up one (or more) of these libations, impress your guests, and maybe even trick them into thinking that you are a mixologist.

1. Lemon lavender vodka tonic from Bakers Royal

2. Cardamon rose cocktail from Design Sponge

3. Elderflower Champagne cocktail from Zested

4. Grapefruit, ginger and lemongrass sake cocktail from The Bojon Gourmet
