Grand Ol' Mini

*exhale* FINALLY, after selling out faster than a L.A. newbie, Mini-Shatsu has resurfaced at Jac!
As a mom I try to keep my mini-chick, Chloe, as sensibly stylish as possible.
I'm not Katie Holmes, so I don't have the time or patience to Suri-fy with ruffles and silk.
Mini-Shatsu has incorporated trompe l'oeil to add a dash of attitude to each cotton onesie.
No dry cleaning bill here!!!

For the fashionista a' la maison:


For the future CEO:



and for the Rockers of the cradle!!!!

Neighborhood Jewels

Often times people ask why I selected Inman Park for Jac., and to me the answer is a no-brainer. It's the 100-year-old tree-lined streets, numerous parks, old Victorian houses and new mixed-use developments. All of them make for an unbelievable neighborhood. So many gems to be found! And actually this past week I had time to visit and experience a few of them:
Serpas - brand new restaurant by Atlanta acclaimed chef Scott Serpas in Studioplex - delicious and what a gorgeous space! Um, Eggplant Hushpuppies and Texas Crab Toast??? Hells yeah.
New Moon Skincare - Amy Leavell, esthetician extraordinaire, also at Studioplex, gives incredible facials and more. Serene setting and Amy is wonderful at making you feel comfortable and beautiful!
Il Loca Lino - an old Inman Park stand-by, this amazing restaurant is like a perfect New York Italian restaurant hidden away. Seriously. Go. Now. The owners serenade you, the food is scrumptious (chicken parm is ABFAB) and it's a great space for a romantic date or a group party.
So those are this week's recommendations. Go and enjoy and of course, on your way after come visit us at Jac!

Just In!

Ladies I know some of you aren't ready for spring but my advice to you will be to prepare! You don't want to wait until you're invited to a kickback by that special someone or having a night out on the town with the girls to rush and find something to wear. Those moments are the worst. It's awful finding that "just right" thing at the very last minute. After looking all day for something to wear, you're pretty done before you even get to the event. To alleviate all the drama of last minute shopping come by Jac and have an easy breezy go at it( we love to help)!
If you want to feel luxurious yet comfy we have the most amazing pieces. As soon as you try them on you'll fall in love. Dresses, tops and pants by Tysa and Aaron Ashe! These garbs will get you through the entire spr/sum season and maybe take you into fall.Here's a glimpse at what you'll be wearing!

A Word Of Wisdom To The Fellas

Dear Readers,
If you're a dude, read on. If you're a gal, cut, paste, and send along to your dude. Thanks!

To My Fellow Man,
I know that you're not crazy about Valentine's Day. I know that you think it's a made up holiday. But guess what? You still have to step up. The fact that you're not into it does not mean that she's not into it.

The good news is that I'm here to help. I've got some vital words of wisdom that can help get you through this holiday looking like a champ. And the best part is, you can do it all right in Inman Park.

Step One: Get Your Gift At Jac.
Valentine's Day isn't special without that beautiful, butcher paper wrapped present from Jac. Preview our jewelry selection here, so you can get an idea of what to buy her before you come in. We've got all of her favorites- just ask Jac, and she'll help you find a winner.

Step Two: Get Your Flowers At Adaptation
The coolest flower shop in town. Stop by for a totally unique arrangement, unlike the bla-bla bunch of roses that everyone else is pushing. Seriously, this is a great opportunity to support a fantastic, independently owned business. In years past I've seen a huge line of guys waiting to buy flowers outside of Whole Foods on Ponce... so if you've been on that line before, step it up and think outside the box. You'll be happy that you did. Click here for more.

Step Three: Get Your Chocolate At Cacao
Complete your Valentine's Day holy trinity at Cacao, Inman Park's new little jewel of a chocolate shop. You'll have her saying "You had me at hello..." before you even say hello (with a box of their scintillating truffles). Click here for more.

Step Four: Buy her a house.
Sandwiched in between Jac, Adaptation and Cacao is my office at Sanctuary Real Estate. You've been thinking about buying her a house for a while... isn't it time you pulled the trigger? Click here to check out my site, or here to read my lovely blog.

Whether you buy her the house, the chocolate, the flowers or the jewelry, make sure you have yourself a sweet time with your sweetie. I know I will. With my sweetie, that is.

Kissing Canines!

Get a smooch from a cute pooch at "Kissin' Canines" on Valentine's Day - February 14th from 1:30 - 4:30 at the Intown Healthy Hound in Grant Park. Proceeds will benefit Grant Park & South Bend Park (Proposed Fenced-in Dog Park in South Bend). We are proud to announce that ShopDog Albie will be participating from 1.45 till 2pm!

Last Boutique Sale till July!

Hey kids! It's the last boutique sale of the season! You won't see another till the end of July so you'll want to hit this one for all the deals before then! We will have mens and womens at this one! Friday and Saturday 10 to 6 - details here. See you then!

Lady is a STAR!

As you know, we looooooove posting pix of our lovely customers sporting their Jac goods. So we were so thrilled when superstar PR gal Kate Thacker (of Caren West PR) wore her Samantha Pleet Tuxedo dress for her photoshoot in MetroMix's Top Twenty To Watch in 2009. Congrats Kate - we'll keep our eye on you!

for the essentials only...

here we have a 15x17x7.75in (WHOA!) tote by LeSportSac (found here) for all of your "daily essentials". You know what I mean...your five shades of red lipstick, 2 tubes of mascara, 3 months worth of Vogue and a planner thick enough to rival the President's. The Lexie tote comes in your basic black and a whimsical Faerie print. It includes 2 main compartments, a padded center pocket for your laptop with a zipper closure and an expandable gusset, possibly allowing more room for your weekly groceries. It's also a great carry-on travel tote considering you can pack a week's worth of clothing in it...
