Will have to check it out!</p> <p>Jules that is so true, apparently I have to get out of the house more!</p> <p>When your vibe doesn't fit your city it is absolutely horrid Caro! It's bad enough when that season is not for you but when your vibe is different no season is.</p> <p>At each age they are interesting but this was a quirk I certainly did not expect Suz. I asked his advise on a necklace I was dithering about today and he was spot on. Hubby on the other hand said it was fine...</p> <p>Thanks Suz, I am hoping for a great result so I can wait as long as I have to and try for the PPP when they come in. The differences are also really different in the different parts of the city too. Such an interesting aspect of fashion. I used to shop at Melanie Lyne a lot when I worked and still have a silk t-shirt that I started to wear a lot again last summer. Their quality used to be really good and still seems so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-visit-to-melanie-lyne#post-842797 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:43:50 +0000 Suz 842797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is so wonderful about your son...really nice to think he is learning from his mama...</p> <p>I HOPE you get your pants soon. It is very strange to think about those regional differences. We don't have a Melanie Lyne in Kingston (of course...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-visit-to-melanie-lyne#post-842758 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 02:02:52 +0000 Caro in Oz 842758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We have the same thing here with the bigger chains - it's really annoying if your vibe doesn't fit with a particular city. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-visit-to-melanie-lyne#post-842719 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 01:18:29 +0000 Jules 842719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The big cities have different vibes too - Montreal is tres chic, Vancouver casual/sporty, Toronto probably trendy... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-visit-to-melanie-lyne#post-842628 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 23:51:49 +0000 lyn* 842628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh; Melanie Lyne is a store that makes my blood boil - I think there are definitely regional differences in sellability - dress pants and things in my home town used to hang on the rack until they turned into dust, because everyone just wears jeans! Ditto with fancy pancy dresses!</p> <p>I dunno if you have one in your area, but Le Chateau outlet usually has some nice things for younger guys if he'd be interested in browsing (I know a lot of guys aren't) - we had a Le Chateau Liquidation by where I grew up, and I've brought many a well-dressed guy there and made him browse. They all walk away with amazing deals! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/another-visit-to-melanie-lyne#post-842599 Thu, 07 Feb 2013 23:28:10 +0000 Freckles 842599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Went in today to see about those hounds tooth pants since I hadn’t heard from their head office. Well she ordered them and depending on where they come from it could be two to twenty-one days.</p> <p>An interesting aspect of this had been that apparently those pants are basically unavailable in Eastern Canada but have not been selling at all out West. I didn’t think our styles differed regionally like that. Well I know they do with different types of employment but these pants are very casual. I am not on team denim though so perhaps my view is skewed. Looking forward to receiving them and seeing if the size I think I want is awesome.</p> <p>On another note I went into Le Chateau as I had a credit that I had to use up. Tried like crazy to find something for myself but PPP reared its head and came away without. I adore mens cufflinks and ties though so went over to that side of the store for a peek. My men had been browsing while I shopped and our son got a nice pair of cufflinks using up the credit note. He lost his at a party... </p> <p>When we got home my husband told me that our son looked at some suits then added shirts and ties and had hubby hold them up so he could snap pics. While our taste is not the same his style is maturing and he made some really nice looks. Only the many dollars that he needs for books etc prevented the purchase...he was sorely tempted.</p> <p>An interesting day all in all. </p>
