Janie's Fashion Report

May 2023

Spring, it's here

It's always exciting to start a new season and while Spring 2023 has been a bit slow in coming, it's exciting to see the blossoms finally in full bloom! And Spring fashions are following suit! The colours this season are so bright and cheerful - fuchsia is everywhere! Combined with orange or lime, it pairs perfectly with white or denim. And speaking of denim...

Everyone is asking about jeans this season. We carry a huge variety of denim - Tribal, Liverpool, Mavi, Mac, Ribkoff and our newest addition - Cambio. Since everyone has at least a few pairs of skinny jeans by now, my recommendation for purchasing your next pair, is to move to a straighter leg. The slim straight, or girlfriend jean is an easy transition. The cropped jeans with frayed hem in straight or wide leg and the long straight are also popular. If you are ready for something really new, the flare or wide leg is the way to go. The flare is very flattering for many figure types as it really elongates the leg.

Denim is in

If you want one pair to work with everything, the slim straight is the most versatile. Rolled-up jeans still work if they are narrow - it's always great if you don't have to do hemming. White, cream or coloured denim is perfect for summer and Joseph Ribkoff always does a fabulous dressy Jean.

Colours abound

We're still very excited about our signature pant! New colours have arrived and we now carry 8-10 colours for Spring! This is the perfect pant for just about everything! It's lightweight, comfortable and easy to travel with. You can wear them tight or loose (I prefer loose, to maintain the crinkled look) and after washing, just twist and roll them - and they will look as good as new.

When you come in to find your perfect fit, make sure you allow enough time. There are so many varieties - we haven't even talked about the rise or the curvy fit!... The options are endless.

And as always, try something that's a little out of your comfort zone. You might be surprised to find that your new favourite jeans are not what you expected!

Hope to see you soon!
