Buy Dresses In January To Wear At Spring And Summer Weddings, Showers And Special Occasions

Those2Girls Show You How To Save When It Comes To Special Event Outfits

 

Do you know of a wedding, bridal shower, baby shower, graduation, anniversary party or special event that you have coming up?  Now is the time to shop for that great dress or fantastic outfit to wear to it!

Hit The Sale Racks In January

Many stores stock up on New Year's Eve gowns and put them on sale in January.  Now it the time to search those clearance racks!  Most evening wear has short sleeves or is strapless which makes it wearable in the warm months as well.

Know The Tricks To Shopping For Spring And Summer Occasions

As mentioned above make sure to pick a short sleeve or strapless outfit but here are some other ideas

1. Choose colourful pieces. Most don't wear a lot of black or brown at warm weather gatherings
2. Not too much sparkle (unless it's for a black tie affair)
3. Take note of hemlines, as you want to show off your great strappy shoes in warmer weather
4. Try it on and test out all zippers, hooks, buttons and clasps. You won't be able to return it months down the road
5. Make sure the outfit isn't too heavy. Think about what it will be like wearing it at an outdoor wedding or patio event

So whatever your plans our this summer you know you'll look great without breaking the bank!

The LouLou Shops Series Is Headed for Kitchener’s Fairview Park

Getting Your LouLou On

 

While most Canadian women are familiar with LouLou Magazine, their LouLouShop Series might need an intro to the Kitchener Waterloo area. Being attendees of a previous LouLou event we thought we would give you the lowdown.

 

What to Expect At The LouLou Event at Fairview Park

Wondering what to expect at the LouLou Shopping Series event on August 21 2014? To start with Fairview Park Mall in Kitchener is looking forward to hosting you and your gal pals!

 

Their participating shops will have lots in store for you including

• Event Only discounts
• VIP treatments
• Treats and more

 

Plus LouLou Magazine will have their expert editors on hand to give you tips on the latest style trends.

Need a bit more coaxing? Well the first 200 shoppers that spend $200 at the event on between 5pm-9pm on August 21 will receive a SWAG BAG! Learn more about the event happenings and swag in our upcoming posts about the event

Pro Tip – Get in line early for the swag!

See Just How Much Fun We Had

When we attended a previous LouLouMagazine event in Toronto Ontario, we had so much fun.  We were given a map of the participating stores and made sure to visit every single one of them! We shopped, received swag, hopped in photo booths, we wined and dined a bit, got pampered and ended up at a Dragonette concert in a Roots store.

 

 

 

 

Now I’m not saying any of this will take place at Fairview Park, but you never know unless you are there for the experience!

Four Ways to Prepare For a Shopping Event

1. WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES – The last thing you want to experience is sore feet. Pop on your comfy shoes ensure you can make it through the shopping mall blister free
2. PLAN YOUR ATTIRE – At these events dressing room areas can become very busy. It’s best to wear tank tops and thin shorts under your outfit so you can try on garments without getting in that fitting room line.
3. CHARGE YOUR DEVICE – Chances are you will want to show off your style! Make sure your smartphone/tablet is fully charged so you can show your finds socially.
4. BE PATIENT – Great deals can sometimes mean longer lineups at the checkout. Instead of being frustrated, strike up a conversation with others in line. Ask them about the deals they grabbed and learn how they found out about the event.
