Arriba! Party at Verdigris Clothier

How would you like to shop chic clothing selections at up to 70% off, enjoy live Latin jazz music, and possibly win a $300 gift card?  You get your chance at Verdigris Clothier (107 East Main Street, Downtown Mall) this Friday, January 27.  From 7 pm to 10 pm, shop the store and let loose to the sounds of Peter Richardson & Drex Weaver…just what you need after that long week of work!

This event is RSVP only!  To RSVP, please email the store – verdigrisclothing@gmail.com.

And a $300 gift card?  Yes please!  What would I buy with three hundred smackeroos?  Here are some favorites (and be sure to like Verdigris Clothier on Facebook to see more…)

Nicole Miller dress, classic chic

I’d be okay with getting this for Valentine’s Day.

Adjustable belts are a must.  Loving the buckle!

Jean Theory’s Big Move

This is your chance to get in on major deals and give back to the community.  Jean Theory, Cville’s hotspot for premium denim, is moving from 204 East Market Street to its new location on the Downtown Mall, and they need your help!

First, there’s going to be a HUGE sale on Tuesday, January 24th at the East Market Street store.   Because the store’s moving and need to make way for new duds, they want to offer a chunk of their inventory to you at incredible savings.  From 9 am – 9 pm, get 30-50% off everything not moving to the new location.  On top of that, get their popular “Roll the Dice” deal at checkout for an additional 5-30% off.

[Note: When Jean Theory moved from their previous location several months ago, I got some A-MA-ZING deals at a similar sale they had.  We're talking pants, dress, jacket, shoes, tops, and more...a huge bag of clothes...at less than $100 total.]


That’s me shopping the last moving sale in November.  Photo by the lovely Heather!

OK, so how can you give back?  Easy!  This Sunday, January 22 (before the sale), volunteer to help Jean Theory move its non-sale merchandise to its new location.  Sign up to volunteer for any time span between 10 am and 3 pm.  Drinks and snacks provided.  For every hour each person works, Jean Theory will donate $8 to the UVa Women’s Center.

To volunteer to help with the move, RSVP on Facebook, or contact the store at 434-296-JEAN (5326).  Hope to see you there!
