Due to snow, we are extending our West 4th Warehouse Sale until Sunday, March 2nd!

Exciting news! Plum is holding a rare 4 day warehouse sale. From Thursday until Sunday, enjoy warehouse prices at our West 4^th location. Here are 4 reasons to attend:

Save the hassle. Our warehouse sale is centrally located in Kitsilano on West 4^th and Vine. There is also free one hour parking below Whole Foods (Entrance on Vine). Plus, on Thursday and Friday, we have extended hours until 8pm!

Buy Better. Because the sale isn’t actually in a warehouse, you can make better decisions. Private change rooms and mirrors that you won’t be competing with the crowds to decide whether those pants work for you or not.

Score Big. Consolidated merchandise means better size availability and we’ve brought everything into our Kitsilano store. Arrive early for the best selection. Everything is marked down to 50-80% off the regular price!

Have fun with a friend. Shopping sale events offer deep discount goodies for a limited time. What’s more fun than inviting one of your Plum loving friends and making an afternoon out of it.

$95 Yoga Jeans for 5 days only!

Get any style of Yoga Jeans for just $95 (reg. $110-$120)

for 5 days only!

Offer valid Thursday, February 6th to Monday, February 10th.

Since Second’s Yoga Jeans were introduced in Plum stores, they’ve become a fan favourite. Nothing compares to putting a pair on—you can immediately feel the difference in comfort between a pair of Yoga Jeans and your regular denim.

“Not only does the 4-way stretch allow for more flexibility in movement, the 92% shape memory (versus an industry average of only 64%) keeps them looking good,” says Eric Wazana, the creator of Yoga Jeans. Skinny jeans, in other words, stay looking like a skinny. Plus, women feel held in by the high rises.

But what's really created such loyal fans is that the comfort factor is equally matched when it comes to style. Now try them for the first time (or find a new style to love) during our 5 day sale!

Yoga Jeans are known for their contoured waistbands that curve with our bodies so that the back doesn't gape open when we bend or move. This Second’s Yoga Jean (reg. $120) has a double button on a wider waistband.

The Second Highrise Skinny Yoga Jean (reg. $120) with zipper ankle detail is one of the most popular Yoga Jeans styles.

Second’s Highrise Straight Yoga Jean (reg. $120) has a slim leg and tone-on-tone stitching for a style that’s easy to dress up or wear to work.

Second’s Highrise Flare Yoga Jean (reg. $118) is on trend and updated with a clean rinse indigo wash with mustard stitching.

Second’s Highrise Yoga Bootcut (reg. $110) is long and lean in the rinse indigo and the high rise holds you in.

What do you love about your Yoga Jeans?

PS: Did I mention that Yoga Jeans are made right here in Canada?

Plum's owners visited the Yoga Jean factory in Quebec last fall to see how the jeans were made.

Struggling to find something to wear? You might need some new inspiration. During this transitional time between winter and spring, styles that were the mainstays during the fall season feel lackluster. A few fashionable pieces added now will make you excited about your clothes again until it's time to change over your closet. Transition into spring in style with these items:

Dresses: Floral prints are a go-to wardrobe item now when you wear it with a cardigan and tights. Later in spring, lighten the layers and play off the print.

Shop some of the sale dresses here.

Blouses: Sheer blouses with colourful prints transition easily to spring. Unique styles add endless outfit combinations with your basic black.

Shop some of the sale blouses here.

Sweaters: Knitwear has never been so stylish. Now on sale, you can take risks with fun trends. Later in spring, replace your coat with a cardigan.

Shop some of the sale sweaters here.

From the sparkling champagne to the fireworks display at midnight, New Year's Eve is all about glamour and glitz. Whether you’ve had your outfit planned for weeks or you’re pulling a look together at the last minute, jewellery is all you need to dazzle.

Get your outfit party-ready with glittering statement pieces. A sparkly necklace updates an ensemble and breaks up the blank space of your top. One statement item becomes the centerpiece of the outfit so pair a necklace with some simple jewelled studs.

If you're already wearing something with sparkles or sequins, finish your look with some classic pearls. Wrap a single strand around your wrist or knot it at the neck for a finishing touch. Or, layer a few strands with a rhinestone piece for a modernized look.

Celebrate the new year with some glitter. Now that all jewellery is 50% off, you can impress for less.

All jewellery is 50% off!

5 Tips for Boxing Day Shopping

Tags: Boxing Day sale shopping tips

Boxing Day shopping is an annual tradition for many Canadians. With the stress of gift buying behind us, the day is completely reserved for shopping for ourselves. These 5 helpful tips will help you maximize your shopping day:

Early bird gets the worm: Don’t hit the snooze button so you can have first pick over parking, fitting rooms, the help of a friendly sales clerk and merchandise before the store is filled with shoppers. (Check here for your local Plum store's hours.)
Take breaks: Eat a big breakfast and make sure you stop during the day for coffee breaks to recharge. Being hungry can affect your ability to make sound decisions on sale items.
Dress in the right clothes: Layers will make trying on clothes a cinch. Plus, if the fitting room line-up is too long, you can try clothes on in front of a mirror. To keep comfortable, forego the winter parka so don’t have to carry much and wear slip-on shoes.
Know what you need and how much you can spend: By doing a little planning ahead, you will have a better idea of what you want to spend your money on. That way you’ll be able to zero in on what you are actually looking for despite distractions.
Have fun: Boxing Day sales are about finding things you love for a deal, so don’t forget to enjoy yourself!

Here's the inside scoop on the deals at Plum to help you make your list:
