Overall sales of women’s clothing and accessories grew by a threadbare 0.5 per cent between June 2015 and June 2016, according to Statistics Canada, while men’s clothing fell by 0.1 per cent during the same period. Footwear sales rose two percent.<br />Meanwhile, sales of home electronics, including cameras and computers, were up 6.5 per cent. 'The luxury market is stuck in a holding pattern for the foreseeable future,' said Claudia D’Arpizio, lead author of the study, predicting continued, measured growth of 2 to 3 per cent through 2020."<br /><br />Quote from:<br />https://www.thestar.com/business/2016/09/10/nordstrom-countdown-to-opening-begins.html<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319045721490540616.post-17439332798039905662016-09-09T18:27:01.042-07:002016-09-09T18:27:01.042-07:00thank you!thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319045721490540616.post-24280502043682856072016-09-09T14:19:33.662-07:002016-09-09T14:19:33.662-07:00If you're a working Canadian, you get paid mat...If you're a working Canadian, you get paid maternity leave.

I went into one of the stores in CT and inquired about those see thru tights. She told me to try them on and see what I think. I indeed tried them on and had my light pink thongs on. No bend over test needed. I can see they are sheer where I see th light pink color of my thongs, my skin and the rip tag. The idiot proceeds to tell me they are completely opaque!?!? I asked her if she needs glasses and she said she has 20/20 vision and they look great on me. I'm a sz4 5'7" 25 waist and 35" hips and weigh 112 lbs. I'm pretty thin and lean. I'm a marathon runner (I run two full a year and do 2 half ironman a year) and I would never wear those for running. I'm a serious runner and train all the time.

The party line is 'these are for running, not suitable for gym workouts'. I wouldn't put an Ed in a position of answering a question that hurts their employement so I drop it but it is clear there is a lack of confidence in these pants, in this particular print.
