In my last post I wrote about the legendary Lisette pants made in Montreal and endorsed by Oprah among a host of other celebrities. Here’s what happened since. I had ordered 36 pair that arrived a week last Friday. I chided myself for ordering way too many pants all at once – who was going to buy them all? A week later we had only 6 pair left. Practically everyone who tried them on said WOW! and bought at least one pair. So I did another crazy thing and ordered 60 more. They arrived late yesterday – Tuesday. By the end of today – Wednesday, we have sold 15 pair. Ladies, these pants really are amazing! Claudia, the writer and our staff member immediately bought a pair and said “it feels like two hands holding up my butt.” They slim your torso, elongate your legs and make you look ten pounds lighter. And they are super comfortable and easy to care for and travel with. We have them in sizes 2 – 16 in navy, beige, khaki, black, denim, white and dark red. Come in and give them a try. And if you love them they cost only $95.00. See the post below for the full back story.
But that’s not all. Just in time to complement those pants we received a gorgeous collection of tops by Leo Guy, Paris. They are pretty, colourful, feminine, and well priced – in a wide range of sizes.
A few new pieces from Sandwich have arrived as well as a sprinkling from a lovely new collection by Metallicus – brush strokes of impressionist colours on draped and sculptured silhouettes. And if you’re looking for jeans – we have a new group from Yoga along with the best fitting denim jackets I have seen.
Shop early for the best selection. We’re waiting for you!

Tiu, I’ve been enjoying your postings all year, from Denver (have also loved your pictures of all the snow though I know you are all very sick of it). I had heard about Lisette pants for a few years and finally a small store here started carrying them. A week ago, I went in to look at them and heard three women speaking French and also looking at them- I recognized their Quebecois accent and sure enough, they were from Montreal and buying Lisette pants while on vacation. That was a pretty good testament to me- I bought one pair and am waiting for another color- but I’ll buy some from you too! All the best, see you in June, Sheilagh Hudon

Hi Tiiu, the pants sound awesome. Can you tell me if they run small, true to size, or large. Are they below the waist or at the waist. I would be interested in a red pair but not sure if I would need 14 or 16.
Thanks Michal

Hi Michal, They run large meaning that if you’re 14 then you’d be a 12 or maybe even a 10. They fit snug around the waist and pull you in in just the right spots. Hope to see you!
