New Spot Makes Irresistibles a Bit Harder to Resist

Since moving the store from Elm Street to Main in downtown New Canaan at the end of January, Irresistables employees say they've seen more foot traffic and have more space to take advantage of it.

It's been about six weeks since Irresistibles, a women's clothing store downtown, left its 104 Main St. location to move to 86 Main St., and store employees say the change has been a good one.

"We're still getting, 'Oh, we didn't know you moved,' but we're also getting more foot traffic," said Nicole Amato, assistant manager of the store.

Store clerk Carol Collins added, "There's lots of traffic because of he restaurants" nearby, which include Tequila Mockingbird next door and Thali Restaurant across the street. The new location is two doors down from Island Outfitters on Main Street.

Customers have also commented on the tin ceiling at the new location. "They love how it looks," Amato said.

What are some of the spring fashion trends that customers find when they enter the store?

"Colors are in; stripes are in; tunics," Amato says. "Bright and bold colors—yellows , oranges, pinks."

I just called Staples. This is really disturbing to me. If I don't get a satisfactory answer, IRead More will let people know and I will also decide whether to continue shopping there. I do not like to give my money to unethical businesses.

This has convinced my growing conviction that Patch has moved completely away from any pretense ofRead More being a news source and is simply an electronic bulletin board. By abandoning their prior procedure of approving posts before they go up, they are letting anything go on and then taking them down if they're reported. By then, it's too late: the poster has gotten their message across during the time it's in the lineup. I only check in with Patch occasionally now and so many people in town won't read it at all anymore. I think we need to be honest with ourselves about what kind of a public forum this venue is. This doesn't reflect well on Staples if they are using subterfuge and violating Terms of Use on Patch either.
