We’re having an NYDJ Fit Party! – Sizes 00 to 18 available including some Petite

ZuZu is excited to be hosting our first ever Fit Party!

We know how frustrating it can be to find great looking, comfy, awesome fitting jeans. The only thing worse is bathing suits. So we have invited NYDJ fit expert  Kassia Orawiec to come in, talk about the line, share some secrets and get you individually suited up in your own pair.

As usual, we will have our pre-event reception starting at 6:00pm then Kassia will take the podium at 6:30pm. Fitting appointments will begin at 7:00pm. Rest assured there is no obligation but we're pretty confident that you won't want to take them off!

If you aren't familiar with NYDJ, it's a US-made collection of denim that we have recently brought in-store to serve as your core jeans...the ones you reach for because you know they will fit, will look great and will control the tummy area as well as lift the back-side...it's true!  You'll see.

This is your chance to try out some styles and washes with lots of sizes available. And we'll have a few fit models on-site to bring everything to life. Available sizes on-site will be 00 to 18 including some Petite sizes.

The details:

Date:   Tuesday October 16

Time: 6:00pm kick-off reception

That's all you need to know for now.....

Fab 50s, Sassy 60s, Celestial 70s, Exceptional 80s – Get your Iris On!!! [RSVP REQUIRED]

Life is a series of Honours

There's something truly privileged about representing a decade. At ZuZu Fashion Boutique, the stellar staff has a fifty, sixty, seventy mix and man these ladies rock it! And we continue to be inspired by customers who defy age on a daily basis... they say they feel great, love life and are happy to be here, now.

They've got it figured out. Do you??

Here's your chance to show it  or see it in action. To be clear, we're not talking about "plastys", "ectomys" or "lifts", although there's nothing more effective than the perfect undergarment (we go to Bravo Fine Lingerie for our delicates).

Nope. We mean an approach that embraces all of you. From the gentle care of aging skin to a loving perspective of self care. And a creative style boost. Nothing scary - but well worth the investment in you!

Please block the time for this special, private event featuring Ms. Kimberley Peacock, a truly centred and gentle soul who practices Aesthetics, Mindfulness and Energy. We are blessed to have her joining us to kick off the evening.

Here's what Kimberley has to say about the connection between self-care and skin care:

We all lead busy lives. Committing to “me” time can be difficult given all of the distractions that come with a hectic schedule. But the truth is, if you’re taking time out of your day—morning and night—to care for your skin, you’re also engaging in something soothing and relaxing that can be considered self-care. If you allow it to be.

For many, engaging in a skin care routine, regardless of whether it involves 10 steps or 3, can help reduce stress. It’s a chance to take a break.

You don’t have to be a skin care aficionado to embrace self-care through daily routine, so long as you are taking time for yourself to disconnect from stressors and focus on yourself.

*Kimberley will share with you some of her favourite products and tools that can help you look and feel good.

The second part of the evening will feature another famous ZuZu fashion show featuring all sorts of wonderful and fun approaches to dressing for ladies of a "certain age"...

Date: Tuesday July 31

Time: Doors open at 6:00pm for cocktail reception; Event begins at 6:30pm sharp

This just in! In-Store Book Signing on Saturday November 18

ZuZu is thrilled to announce that Margot Denomme, author of children's book Mommy, am I pretty?, will be in-store on Saturday November 18 from 12pm to 1pm for a book signing. Crown Counsel at the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General by day, children's book author by night, Margot has created a wonderfully touching story that delivers an important message for young girls. In fact, we believe there's a message for everyone!

One day at school, Molly is asked by her friend if she is pretty. Molly says yes but realizes that she doesn't really know what that means. So, she asks her mother. This story takes us through her journey to understanding that being a kind and thoughtful person, and being your best self, is the image of true beauty.

It provides a perfect opportunity to initiate dialogue with your young daughter, step-daughter, niece, granddaughter, student or any young girl for that matter about her inner "pretty". Margot's two young daughters illustrated the book.

ZuZu as been honoured to carry Margot's book for several months so it is exciting to welcome the creator in-house. She has an interesting story personally, and this is your opportunity to meet her, chat about the book and get your copy/copies signed.

The perfect gift for Christmas, the book is available at ZuZu for $20.00 plus tax. For this date only, we are making a very special offer of $17.00 plus tax.

Drop in and see what it's all about. You won't be sorry.

Promenade Days 2017 – a celebration for friends and family

Barrie's downtown Promenade Days is back in full force this year as we all come together to celebrate Canada's 150. Get your red and white on and come downtown to enjoy the food, music, shopping and fun all weekend.

The Snowbirds are coming! The Snowbirds are coming!

This year, Illuminate Barrie kicks off the Canada 150 celebrations in Barrie in a really BIG way!

Canada's own Snowbirds will be in our skies on Wednesday June 28 and included will be the newly painted CF18 which looks incredible!

As noted in the January 31, 2017 issue of Simcoe.com;

Nine jets from the Canadian Armed Forces’ iconic Snowbirds will perform above Kempenfelt Bay June 28, to help mark the Canada 150 celebration and kickoff Promenade Days and the city’s July 1 festivities.

“Barrie’s just like any small, medium or big-size town in Canada,” Capt. Blake McNaughton said, after landing at Lake Simcoe Regional Airport in Oro-Medonte for the announcement Jan. 31. “The Snowbirds try to travel to every Canadian location at some point in our iconic history. This year, Barrie applied and we’re happy to be coming. They’re going to see quite the show. We always have special things planned for everywhere we go. But with the tie in to the 150 celebrations, we’re going to have a very special show to celebrate that monumental occasion.”

Kempenfelt Bay will be the perfect vantage point so why not come downtown for some food, beverage and shopping before the big event? ZuZu will be participating in the festivities to celebrate the 150th birthday of the best country in the world.

The festivities carry on over Promenade Days and through to Labour Day with the Illuminate Barrie Festival.

It’s a Kitchen Party!

Butt Blitz 2017 – Call to Action for Downtown Barrie

Thanks to Explore Lake Simcoe for their insightful article on the environmental damage done by discarded cigarette butts ... if you didn't see it, please take a read... No Ifs, Ands, or Butts

The annual Butt Blitz event is led by A Greener Future with a 2017 goal to pick up 200,000 butts nationally. Barrie's 2016 contribution was 7475 and we're targeting 10,000 this year! But we need your help to really make an impact. ZuZu is committed to the cause with store owner Tracey Baker serving as the Downtown Barrie Volunteer Coordinator for the event. She'll be reaching out to downtown businesses to spread her enthusiasm and secure involvement.

Take action by picking up all the butts on your sidewalk and in the street from 11:00am to 2:00pm on Saturday May 6.  Bring a pair of gloves and we'll provide the rest including:

Poster

Clear bags

Map of butt receptacle locations

Encourage your customers, clients, staff and others to "butt out" in a Terracycle Receptacle (more to come on this too!), currently available in front of ZuZu Fashion Boutique or place butts in one of the bags for collection --- they will ultimately be recycled into pallets.

We all have a real opportunity to make an incredible difference in addressing this significant environmental challenge - and to spruce up our downtown beautification efforts. Of course, we're hoping it becomes an everyday activity "butt" this is a great start!

Please Talk to Tracey for more information or suggestions on how to make this a huge success!

Ingi rules the window today!

On of our faves ruled the ZuZu windows today. The ever the sassy and spunky Ingi rocked it from sophistication to bohemian chic to casual elegance.

Who will bring the window to life next week??? Stay tuned...

It’s all in the family for the living window!

ZuZu owner's sis Joanne took to the window today to show the "hood" four different looks. She rocked them all and even got a proposal of sorts from an older gentleman who felt compelled to come in and say hello.

"You are gorgeous! We could have done great things together!!"

Well outside of her bean counter box, bookkeeper Joanne rose to the occasion and gave her audience what they wanted - glamour, elegance, sophistication, fun and just enough kookiness!  Well done sis - when can we get you back???

Summer savings on until September 2, 2016

Can it be true???

ZuZu is reducing prices by 40% on summer clothing???? AND with a minimum $150 spend before tax you will receive a summer scarf on the house???

Better get down to the store and check it out before it's too late...

Have you heard?

Fashion Meets Wine on Dunlop East

There's nothing like a pairing of fashion with wine. Add your best girlfriends, a kickin' patio and hot summer weather -- there's no better party!

Sorry folks - you'll need to tilt your computer to view it!

On August 11, five gorgeous and enthusiastic ZuZu customers volunteered their time to play dress-up and take to the street as models. Leaving from the shop at 25 Dunlop E., the runway target was the ever-popular (and newest) downtown patio at Canvas and Cabernet at 72 Dunlop E. Vehicles and pedestrians alike were entertained by the show of beautiful summer looks from ZuZu and a dapper gentleman from John McNabb Clothier dropped by to escort the lovely ladies to their destination!  Thanks Jason.  Upon arrival, C&C patrons cheered on  the ladies as they were strutting their stuff!

Thanks to all who came out and purchased raffle tickets for prizes donated by downtown merchants including Our House, Kimberley Peacock yogi/aesthetician, Canvas and Cabernet and ZuZu Fashion Boutique.  Thanks also to the Barrie Olive Oil Company for the discount coupons that everyone enjoyed. Ticket sales all went to Victoria Village Manor Family Council initiatives for long term care residents.

There will be another show so if you don't want to miss it, Subscribe to our email list for notifications of upcoming events.

Catherine’s baaack in the Window!

The fun and enthusiastic Catherine is back as our living mannequin this week and everyone's having a blast! Suited up for a cruise through the Greek Islands, an elegant garden party, hosting a house party or shopping the market in Marrakesh, she's found it all this week at @zuzubarrie!!

Next week is a sister act in the window... stay tuned

Living Window is lots of fun with Catherine!

ZuZu windows came alive again with the zany and effervescent Catherine, modelling three looks for passers-by. She was determined to get some attention and boy did she succeed! Pedestrians, drivers and patio patrons alike couldn't help but smile with thumbs up.

In her own words --- "I love it--thanks! I had a riot this afternoon--so much fun helping people smile. The outfits were fabulous, and so comfortable. And the firefighters were awful cute, too!"

Great job Catherine - we'll see you again next week!
