What's Happening at Close To You

Our new store hours are Monday Through Saturday 10-5.

Here are some of the protocols we have in place to keep us all safe and healthy:

* We limit the number of fabulous clients in the shop at one time to 8 at a maximum - and you know we have a very big store!

* We have sanitizing stations set up. 

* We steam everything you try.

* We clean and sanitize our change rooms every time one of our fabulous clients is done.

* We wear a mask and ask you to also if you are needing a bra fitting.

* We installed plexiglass at the front counter.

* We have our no-touch credit card and debit machine set up.

We can't wait to see you, talk to you, share with you, ask you for ideas and grow with you!

We are also going to continue our videos. I love doing them, touching base, talking to you - so keep an eye out for those! Everyday will be something new!

We love you and are totally ready for a NEW DAY! Can't wait to see you!

Daily (or almost!) Dose of Close To You!

VARIETY is the Spice of Life!

VARIETY is the Spice of Life!

Variety in our wardrobe will give us a daily new outlook as we venture into summer after months of staying home. We will become busier than ever, anxious to get out of the house while we continue to maintain our social distancing. It will be a summer of Staycations – Destination BC.

Think of it this way – ample variety in our wardrobe will give us a brand new ‘go to’ or ‘anything goes’. Take a closer look at these ‘Soft Works’ tops in cheerful colors of Candy, Aqua, Lime and Blue. We all have basic black and white pants and capris; just pick your favourite colors, get two or three tops and you’ll be good to go [...]

PATTERNS Will Cheer You Up!

PATTERNS Will Cheer You Up!
The good news in spring fashions is that patterned tops, pants, dusters and dresses are in like never before, just in time for raising our spirits to feel alive again. The new vivid colors are like a ray of sunshine, guaranteed to make us smile.

We’ve all had our moments during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most of us have coped reasonably well but our lives have not been normal lately. We need a few things to cheer us up a little.

The best news I’ve heard lately is that Close to You is reopening soon! [...]

A World of Sandals

Mephisto
Sandy opened her new store on Corfield Street because she wanted a store large enough to accommodate a comprehensive shoe department. She was looking forward to stocking this new department with the best shoes, boots and sandals made in the world today and her goals have been realized, combining high fashion and comfort.

Our store needs to stay closed a little longer due to the COVID-19 crisis so that our staff and customers will stay safe, but we can certainly show you some pictures of the wonderful spring stock of sandals waiting for you. [...]

We Believe

Women of all ages and sizes should feel amazing about themselves, confident, beautiful, and comfortable in the clothes they wear.  And we believe that every person’s unique style should be honored, whether you like fun and funky or prefer a more conservative, structured look or anything in between. We want to help outfit you in what makes you feel truly you – the beautiful soul you are, inside and out.

We provide our clients with the latest fashions that are both current and sophisticated, as well as the time-honored, classic pieces never to be without.  Being a beach/resort town, we of course also have beautiful casual fashions and footwear for that relaxed evening out or walk on the beach.

Our team provides fashion and fit expertise in a fun, inviting atmosphere where you can be outfitted from head to toe.  Our goal is for you to enjoy yourself, browse what we have to offer, get expert help in choosing the perfect fashions for you, and leave your visit with us looking and feeling your very best.
