Marcia's Minute

The kids may be going back to school, but summer is definitely notMarcia Lucas, owner over! Luckily, everything that have in the store is made for this hot climate--so if the heat is getting to you, try some of the wonderful new things that we've received in from Dunes! Made of sturdy, light & airy cotton, Dunes is low-maintenance and wonderful in this heat! Additionally, we're offering a special this month on some of our gauzy cotton Peasant & Viejita blouses--all of which are sure to help you from getting overheated.

You will also definitely want to take advantage of the sales tax holiday this weekend! What a perfect time to stock up on your favorite items!

In addition to all of the new things that we have received so far, we'll also have wonderful new things arriving in the next few weeks from my latest trip to Mexico--so you will definitely want to keep checking in the store over the next few weeks.

Also, we have just started carrying some incredible new jeans from JAG, in two different styles. If you have not been in yet to see them, you should definitely try them--we have seen women with all different body types completely fall in love with them. Take a look at Becky's comment about them in this month's mailbag. Thank you Becky!

Saludos,
Marcia Lucas
Owner

El Interior Mailbag

Amy--The newsletter looks great! I loved the pics with the jeans. I wore my jeans in Denver—I freaking LOOOOOOVE them. I wore them cuffed, they looked so hip. So comfy! Thanks for making me buy them!

Becky Conces

For the record everybody - I did not MAKE her buy them! I simply made her try them on because I love them so much myself! Thanks for your comment Becky! (Becky is referring to the new JAG jeans that we carry)
