New Fashions for Winnipeg

March 31, 2013 By Maureen Wood Leave a Comment

If you live in Winnipeg, Manitoba and you are plus size you now have a new place to shop for exciting plus size fashions. Jaime Mackenzie has opened the J. Mackenzie Fashions boutique at 525-B St. Anne’s Road.

At the moment she is carrying fashions like dresses, tops, skirts, and leggings from brands like Igigi, SwakDesigns, and Kiyonna.

If you shopped at these stores online separately you would have to pay separate shipping and duty costs for each order. You can shop for all the brands in-store or order from their pretty online store — shipping is pretty reasonable at $10 to $14 or free if you purchase at least $175.

New From Kiyonna

October 26, 2011 By Maureen Wood Leave a Comment

I think when I first visit Kiyonna the first thing I fall in love with is the colors: red, green, plum, maple and gold. Definitely makes me think of fall. Five of my favorites from Kiyonna’s new collection are the lipstick red bellini, the olive green sheath dress (and I am not usually a big fan of green), the plum ruched top, the maple twist dress (also in a hot magenta), and the golden cocktail dress (awesome in allover black too).

The Nadia Knit Belini ($68) is one of my favorite layering pieces that Kiyonna has been carrying over season after season with new colors. The Olivia Sheath Dress ($118) is just so pretty and flattering with its vertical ruched bodice. The Rylan Ruched Top ($58) has the same neckline but the ruched fabric is horizontal and just as flattering and with long sleeves. The Tamara Twist Dress ($118) has so much going on, all with the fabric, a twist here, ruching there. And the Cosmo Cocktail Dress ($158) would be the go to dress for the upcoming holiday season. Despite the all over lace it is modern and polished. All in sizes 10 to 32.

I am disappointed their shipping costs to Canada are so obscene; starting at $30 for the first $300.

Cynthia Twist Dress

February 3, 2011 By Maureen Wood Leave a Comment

Kiyonna is rocking the dresses this month with dresses like the Cynthia Twist Dress. I love the pattern and the style — just enough arm coverage and not too much cleavage. If you visit the Kiyonna website you’ll see bodies other than model Ashley Graham (below) wearing it — in other words, it looks good on many types. It is available in sizes 1x to 5x for $108 U.S.
