Karen is the owner of Watch Us Fashions, located in the heart of Glen Abbey at 1131 Nottinghill Gate (905-827-2271) and Kim is the manager. With these two women and their staff, clothes shopping is akin to having a trusted friend waiting outside the changeroom, someone who gives gentle but honest feedback about whether those clothes you've just tried on flatter or fail you. Watch Us Fashions now carries "Not Your Daughter's Jeans" which according to both "Oprah" and "Marilyn Dennis" of City Line, are the most phenominal line of jeans ever made. Every woman should have at least one pair of these incredibly comfortable and sexy jeans in their closet. They actually lift your butt, flatten your tummy, and make you look a size smaller. "We offer a complimentary personalized consulting service, which especially appeals to the reluctant shopper, but women are certainly welcome to do their own thing in here too," said Kim. Shopping at Watch Us Fashions is retail therapy for the fashion conscious and the fashion faux pas crowd. "Sometimes we need to address how a women looks underneath her clothing before we can recommend an outfit. Underwear is as important as outerwear," said Karen. That is why Karen, Kim and their staff has been trained by the manufacturer of the famous "Oprah Bra" to ensure a correct fit. The body slimming Spanx line is as popular an undergarment at Watch Us Fashions. Spanx is the miracle undergarment made famous by the stars for its comfortable and slimming effects.
