The White Lady

Hello, lovelies! It's been far too long. Alas, this cold white winter landscape has zapped me of much energy (not to mention the light and heat needed to do cute outfit posts).  Rest assured, I do have a few things planned. In the mean-time, I thought I would share my new favourite vintage cocktail: the White Lady.


  • 2 ounces London dry gin
  • 1/2 ounce Cointreau
  • 1/2 ounce lemon juice
  • egg whites
 Instructions

Shake well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

Apartment Vignettes

A little collage devoted to some of the details of my 'new' 1930s nest that make me happy on a day basis :).
