Fashion Flash: Rachel Zoe and Olsen Twins on YouTube
Here’s an amusing YouTube video that you’ll appreciate if you roll your eyes at Rachel Zoe. She actually stars in it. If you find it even the tiniest bit entertaining, you MUST check out the Very Mary Kate series (it’s been around a while, so you may have already viewed) – beyond hilarious.

Shop Alert: Fall Preview at Dress Boutique
Jane and Martha from Dress on Newbury Street sent along their fall preview. Their taste is impeccable. (If only I had more occasions to wear gorgeous pieces; working from home kills the wardrobe.) I stopped by yesterday to visit a 3.1 Phillip Lim dress I’d had my eye on all season (another working from home issue – I see all the looks online rather than in the store). There’s a few pieces on sale that are perfect for finishing out summer. But on to fall (I’m so not a summer person).
LOVE the Loeffler Randall leather zip clogs and violet Vanessa Bruno bag. And the Adam party dress (please someone, invite me somewhere festive). Oh, the Adam gray flannel dress (to add to my gray flannel dress collection) and maybe if I got really, really skinny I could rock the MIH jeans. But the Fiorentin + Baker booties I could totally live in.

Storefront: Boston Cupcake News
Sweet, Newbury Street
Sweet is now open on Newbury, and it’s just as sweet as the Mass. Ave. and Harvard Square shops. Same pretty wallpaper (Studio Printworks Grille Modern in a custom pink) and fixings – design compliments of Annsley McAleer. My son and I popped in on the way home from a friend’s on Saturday night. Though I wasn’t splurging on an 8pm cupcake, we indulged in frosting shots (him vanilla, me cream cheese) for fifty cents each. Genius.

Treat cupcakes
While we’re on a sugar high . . . there’s another new cupcakery in town. Well, not really in town, it’s out in Needham, but it sounds so amazing that I’m almost tempted to make the drive. (Almost, not actually. Hoping Sam at Marlo Communications, their PR agency, will import a cupcake to the Back Bay.) It’s Treat Cupcake Bar and the concept is make-your-own cupcake. I put in my order for a chocolate cupcake with buttercream frosting and a chocolate covered pretzel topping.
