Summer



Summer is gone. This makes me a little bit sad but a little happy. Bring on the cool days! The smell of rain in the morning I think I'm ready for you. I have been taking out my scarves and sweaters bringing one with me when I go out... of course I never really need one, not yet. But there is so much comfort in my nice little wrap, safe and secure enveloped.




Speaking of Summer, have you ever seen Katherine Hepburn in Summertime? This is one of my favorite movies. Katherine's character wears the most amazing outfits - so simple yet refined beautifully. The movie is really funny but has moments of true human emotion, and insecurity that reach your core. So say good bye to summer one last time and rent Summertime... I think you will like it!

Oh Sylvie!



I listed these cute pair last week. I just love them. They remind me of Sylvia Plath. I can imagine her wearing these around school in and out of her writing classes dreaming of who she would become. I wish they were my size!

Shop Update

 Just found this beautiful skirt.  Reminds me of  pretty summer picnics or italian walks  in the 50's.  It is so light and airy and has pockets!  Loving it!!

June Bug



Hello to you! This is the very first entry for Sloe Gin Betty.   This is a place to catalogue our love for the past.  A collection of little snippets of our lives enhanced with vintage style.  

Don't know about you but I have been bit by the June Bug and all I want to do is wear light airy pieces-  pretty and feminine but effortless.  We have quite a few such pieces in our shop right now,  these two are my absolute favorite!  



June is here and we are on the quest for more light summer pretties - will post our findings soon!

Happy June!
