I hope you’re reading this with coffee, wrapped up in what is the most summer Saturday of all the summer Saturdays. For me that means taking on a (too large) home improvement project and making a Citeralla list with coffee. I’m reupholstering my couch. Don’t ask.
We shipped hundreds of sale orders this week just in time for the long holiday weekend. I can’t wait to see everyone donning their fresh MM for the sunset of the summer. In addition, the most luxurious of products landed on the site out yesterday, our Veda caftan. It’s equal parts comfort and luxury. She can be worn to a black-tie wedding or over a swimsuit. The sweet spot as we like to call it. Yes, I will in fact be wearing Veda to a wedding this weekend, and will no doubt be the most comfortable guest. But speaking of swimsuits…
Our most popular swimsuit is back in stock on the site, in both delicious navy and vivacious red. It has equal parts lift from the under-bodice seam and full side coverage from the bust draping. And if you haven’t heard, the full coverage on the backside is unmatched. All our swim is fully lined, which gives a level of security hard to grasp until you try it on. Go for it. You’ll thank me.
I took the long weekend to get out of town before my endless schedule of summer weddings continues. We visited one of our closest friend’s pizza shop in DC, Boogy and Peel. If y’all are around the DC area, it’s so worth a visit. They have incredibly unique toppings far beyond the basics. Served alongside delicious signature cocktails…see my watermelon shrub below. We followed our pizza with a martini nightcap at Le Diplomat. Such a lovely evening pairing.
I’m currently freezing in the car wearing our striped Augusta sweater tucked into linen trousers. It’s just the best sweater for car trips. Half sportif, half lightweight warmth, and perfect for travel. I’ll be jumping out of the car to dinner shortly and will keep her on all night.
FYI, if you’re looking to be my favorite customer this weekend, send me a photo of you wearing a new red Palma suit under a Veda sailboats caftan. Can’t wait to see this glamorous mash up.
Life is short, and as my hero says, pour me something tall and strong…it’s five o’clock somewhere. Cheers and thank you for making this an incredible summer at MM HQ.
Happy Labor Day Weekend!
