It Might Be Cold Outside…

But here at the Mint’s, we are preparing for all things spring! I always take January and February to get everything in order, including my kids’ and my wardrobes. I am a firm believer that there is never a time that we don’t have to shop for something… am I right? Whether it’s the upcoming spring season festivities, a trip, or just a closet refresh, I am constantly shopping, consigning, and doing laundry! (Oh, the laundry!) 

With that being said, the next time it snows, take that opportunity to get your closet in order. Do you have a piece you know is great but just can’t imagine wearing again? Make an appointment to consign your gently used spring clothes. An added bonus - when you sell your clothes with us, you can use your credit at Mint Collective and get a whole new wardrobe and some, with items that were previously just sitting in your closet. I call that a win-win! Need a quick gift? We have that too!

What’s new at Mint Collective, you ask? Here’s a sneak peek of a few of my favorite things in the store!

Our best-selling, budget-friendly, and superior quality (and a personal favorite) Pistola Denim has a new kaleidoscope sweatshirt and sweatpants that are calling Madeline’s and my name.

Pistola Sweatshirt, $188; Pistola Sweatpants, $138

Not into sweatpants? Pistola’s rompers are a cult favorite. We have the Becca Belted Romper in garden green coming that’s apparently already sold out online! Let’s just say I wasn’t a romper fan until I tried Pistola’s.

The Tammy high-rise straight-leg trousers are making a comeback in a Camel tie-dye and in a fabulous pink acid wash! Do you think I like the color? #liveforit

 Tammy Camel Tie Dye Pants, $128; Tammy Camel Pink Pants, $128

Elizabeth Todd collects sweatshirts, and apparently, I collect jean jackets. I have every shade, every style, and every size (XS-XL) in jean jackets. I LOVE A GOOD JEAN JACKET. Different sizes for different looks - naturally, we have two coming this spring. One is classic, fitted, and hits at the waist, and the other is oversized. Take your pick!

Saba April Showers Jean Jacket, $168; Millie Paloma Jean Jacket, $198 

Love is in the air with local woman-owned candle maker CMS Candle Supply. Love Note, Rose & Champagne, and Rose are her new scents as part of her Valentine’s Day collection and let me tell you, they smell heavenly. It makes a great gift for any Galentine’s event too!

CMS Supply Co. Candles, $20

Megan and I love a good sleep set. We can’t keep these guys in stock - the prints are too cute!

Waffles Sleep Set, $128; Lovebirds Sleep Set, $128

You guys love a funny dish towel, and we do too! This one is one of my favorites - but really, Alexa, can you please?

Alexa Dishtowel, $14
