You Should See Our Store

August 25, 2008

Ok, no picture this time, but for good reason.  In recent days, Patrick, our creative director, has been working on giving our store it’s fall look.  The theme of his visual creation is based on the 14 time Emmy nominated “Mad Men”.  This TV series takes place in the 60’s and is about the Madison Avenue ad executives or as they were nicknamed “mad men”.  This fall’s fashion menswear and the very feminine “lady like” trend have taken many queues from the fashion seen on the show.  So, with that background in mind, you have to see our store.  I’m not going to give you any preview pictures because I want you to be fully “WOW’d” when you walk in the front door.   Make a special trip to Leigh’s and see for yourself - it’s that good!!!

We are ready for fall at Leigh’s!  Our Metties area which is know for those great cozy sweaters is brimming with them.  They are so fabulous!  Each is better than the next. I am refraining from purchasing one of every style, so that  you, our valued customer, has first pick….but if you wait too long to come in and see us ….they might be making their way home with me!!!!

Stuart Weitzman and Rebecca Wierda

Last week was great, I was in New York at the Stuart Weitzman showroom buying shoes for spring and in walks Stuart Weitzman!  He took time to speak with me about the collection and his inspiration for the design.  Look in the background  of the picture – all those fabulous shoes!   I know spring is a long way out, but you are going to love the spring shoes that we selected!  Oh, and by the way, come in now and see the amazing fall shoes we have for you!
