Knit Sweater Dress 3-in-1


This November Zaya Inc has found the perfect garment to keep you warm, comfortable, and fashionable.

The newest & warmest addition to the Zaya Inc line is going to be your favorite new accessory. Grey, soft, and one-size-fits-all has never looked so chic.

Wear it as a dress, as a scarf, or as a shrug--its relaxed design will fit you everyday and everywhere. The stretchy knit fabric makes a form-fitting dress, perfect for those upcomming holiday parties. The scarf and the shrug are sure to keep your neck and arms warm when you need it.

Possibly the best part is how compact it is--it opens into an easy-to-fold rectangle that takes the same amount of room in a handbag as a regular scarf.

You can only find the Zaya Inc 3-way Knit Dress for purchase at the Menlo Park I Bar Threading Salon.

Love'n November

 
 
November is a classically romantic month--which might explain why there are so many summer birthdays...
Colder weather encourages us to stay inside, cozy up by a fire, and spend time with friends and family.
 

Here are some tips to make November 2012 the best yet!

 
First of all--the cranberry color is the color of the season. It is extremely complimentary to all skin tones. The red invokes dominance and sensuality while the darker shade of cranberry is slimming. Raw cranberries have moderate levels of Vitamin C, dietary fiber and the essential dietary mineral, manganese, as well as a balanced profile of other essential micronutrients which means the fruit itself will help slim your figure.
 
Cranberries are sweet and tart and can be complimented by a variety of flavors.
The drink in the picture up above has been affectionately titled Beso De Cranberries--it is cranberry juice (or syrup) with a frozen cranberry & ice blend of Vodka Tonic.
The beso (kiss) is from the mint leaf added as the garnish.
Very similar is the Cape Cod (a lighter Cosmo) which has hints of lime juice and a garnish lime twist.
 
Nothing says DIY like frozen berries and mint garnish.
 
Beso De Cranberries:
3oz Cranberry Juice
3oz Tonic
1.5 oz Vodka
(Frozen) Cranberries
Ice
