Pastels Dominate the First Spring of a New Decade

Pastels Dominate the First Spring of a New Decade
It was a chilly day when I stopped in at Close to You, but when I saw the pastel colors for this season, I immediately felt a wonderful sensation of warmth, sunshine and general well-being.

The yellow or citron color is making quite a fashion statement kicking off this spring. There are various shades ranging from lemon to mustard yellow.

The lemon-yellow jackets above made by Nygard will make you smile – spring is almost here... The black/white/yellow top underneath is very complimentary and blends well. [...]

The 2020’s Fashion Decade Begins…

The 2020’s Fashion Decade Begins…
Crisp white shirts by Foxcroft, with a Joseph Ribkoff striped blouse shown in the centre – don’t ever need ironing.

The research and new technology that’s come along in the past 20 years is paying big dividends to consumers starting off this decade. If you hate ironing as much as I do, you’ll appreciate the many wrinkle free fashions available.

New fabrics, environmentally friendly detergents, shorter gentle-washing cycles all contribute to saving cost and the environment. Dryers use only low heat and mother nature is drying our clothes when we ‘hang to dry’. This is all enhancing the effort to save our planet. [...]

Traveling to a Warmer Place…

Traveling to a Warmer Place…

Dress smart for that plane trip, you’re not there yet and still need to wear some comfortable, warm clothes for traveling. It can be cool on the airplane and you may want to sleep a little.

After our snowstorms many people are planning a winter get-away. When we decide on last minute trips to hot spots, the next thought is where can I buy shorts, wraps and a new bathing suit this time of year?

That’s what I like about Close to You. They sell bathing suits year-round and all the accessories that come with it.  [...]
