New summer wardrobe.

Third month and although our coastal BC summer weather is not what it should be, we’re still having a great time…meeting all the locals, welcoming the tourists  and constantly bringing in new and fashionable, WEARABLE clothes. I even picked up a few sweater vests while on my latest shopping trip in Vancouver. They are beautiful but NOT what I want to be wearing!

I’m finding folks are still just now discovering us and being so happy there’s new and exciting shopping here in our quaint little town. I often hear “no more going to the mall in Nanaimo.”! That’s music to our ears.

We’re finding our niche and the items that people are really excited about. Of course, our handmade items are always a hit. Lots of local and Canadian designers as well as the items that we create. We also carry lines that are edgy and beautiful and really well priced. Our bandeaus are a super popular item…come check them out. You’ll never want to wear a bra again!

The little summer dresses are truly the backbone of our store. There are pieces for every body….. and age (as you can see by our models!) Here in Parksville, we have such a wide demographic and we’re really trying to cater as much as possible to all fashion-conscious women, regardless of age.

One of the big trends is of course the maxi dress. I will do another photo shoot soon showing all we have to offer in this category because I’ve been really pleasantly surprised by the diverse body type that looks fantastic in this all-the-way-down statement dress.

If you haven’t already or haven’t for a while, come on down….we often have silk road tea available to sample and for the brave soul, just ask and we’ll make you a latte….

We’re always happy to help you find a special something new to wear or perhaps a whole new summer wardrobe.

All the photos above are the latest pieces we brought in just today…hurry down. They go fast and usually there’s only ever one in each size.
