It's the most wonderful time...of the year!

I love this time of year as the excitement builds towards the holidays. Trees twinkle, houses sparkle, there’s a glow on everyone’s cheeks…and though it does get busy and hectic, I find myself humming Bing Crosby and Dean Martin tunes and gently shaking the gifts under the tree when no one is looking.

There’s a lot going on here at SOL to help get you in the spirit, too!

I sometimes call Christmas and Channukah “toaster holidays.”  Because you usually open your gifts in front of the whole family from mother-in-law to children, it’d better be as safe as a toaster. But seriously? Who wants a toaster? 

Natori Medallion Long Robe. Sumptuous and comes in a bunch of great colors.

That’s why you’ll find an amazing selection of fabulous robes, sleepwear, slippers, even stocking stuffers here that make perfectly appropriate and wonderful gifts to open in front of everyone.  

My advice? Ask for a separate yellow box to open on Christmas Eve...in the bedroom!

Aubade Pin Up. It doesn't make toast, but he won't mind

By the way, we make it so easy on the guys who come in shopping for you. Tell him that we have your size, and probably your wish list. Tell him that we’ll wrap it for free. Tell him that we’re open Noon to 5 on Sundays in December and purchases Sundays get a free grab bag that will have an extra surprise he can put in your stocking. 

And tell him that if he comes on Friday, December 16 between 1pm and 3pm? He can meet and listen to Irv & Joe from Mile High Sports Radio who will be here talking to shoppers and giving out sexy Aubade calendars. I have a feeling Todd will be calling in “sick” that afternoon!

You can cross off a lot of your gift list here, too. 

Give the Natori Jersey collection and you'll get the most sincere thank you cards ever written.

Gorgeous and cozy robes for your mother-in-law, flowing caftans and pajamas for your sister and best friends, slippers for a neighbor, cute flannel Munki Munki jammies for your baby sitter and Paris Tights for the kids' teachers. It's all here!

Munki Munki nightshirt. Your babysitter will love it because it's perfect for texting.

Sweet sleepwear from Eberjey, a great gift for your favorite sister.

Sassy Paris Tights will help any educator get through the day.

And - we’ve got a great selection of gifts under $100. The best part?  Purchases $350 and more get a $50 gift card, so you can make everyone happy and put a little something in your own stocking, too!

Jacques Levine Slippers. Decadently comfortable and warm.

Have a friend who needs “a lift?” Take her to lunch and bring her in for a bra fitting as her gift. With our Share the Love program, new SOL customers get $20 on their account and the referring customer (YOU) get $20 on your account! Everybody’s happy!

Do you follow us on Facebook? Well, you should! We have fun contests, show new product there before anyone else sees it and even have Facebook Only Sales. Tell your friends to “like” us, too, because on December 16^th we’ll be drawing a name from our Facebook friends to win a $250 Natori gift card.  Natori and Josie by Natori sleepwear and loungewear are our favorites and the perfect holiday gift for your mom, your friends, yourself!

Merry merry merry!

Cindy

P.S. Remember that we reward our hard-working SOL Girls and ourselves with some family time after the holidays, so we are closed from December 25 until January 2.

Happy and Safe Independence Day!

The 4th of July weekend is an exciting time around here - we love the fun of picnics and fireworks with our friends and family. But besides that, we also get to enjoy a few days off for one of the country's most fabulous art festivals - The Cherry Creek Arts Festival, right here in our own front yard! 


The festival has been happening the first weekend in July for decades. And it's fantastic - original art, music, great food and drinks...definitely a must-see. We'll be closed Friday July 1 - Monday July 4 to enjoy it.


When we come back - get ready for a month of fun at the store! We'll have all kinds of Facebook only specials and contests - so if you're not a "friend" of SOL on Facebook, this would be a great time to do it! Plus, the Sidewalk Sale is right around the corner, July 21-23. 

Enjoy your weekend - we'll see you next week!

Love and rockets,


Cindy

Can't wait to see YOU at the Customer Appreciation Sale! After all, it is YOUR sale!

What is SOL?

I've always loved lingerie. But the main reason I chose to start my own lingerie store was not only because did I think lingerie was beautiful, but because of how putting on a beautiful set made me FEEL. And that feeling is what I have tried to share with each of my customers over the last 13 years.

When we reached 1000 fans this week on Facebook we did a contest to give away a $100 gift card and asked people to share their favorite SOLism. WOW! I have to tell you reading all the comments brought tears to my eyes. It made me feel so good to see that our Fans get what we are trying to do here at SOL. That lingerie can mean many things to many people, but what we try to do is make women feel great about themselves.

Read some of the comments below or go to our Facebook page to read them all, or add your own. And to everyone who commented, THANK YOU. You made my week.

Love, Cindy

I love Sol so much that inside my own head I changed your name to "My Miracle Workers". My best friends even know exactly who I'm referencing when I say, "I'm going to visit my miracle workers this weekend." :)

All it took was one fitting and I'm a SOL/daisy girl for life.

Mine is embarassing and is a memory i have of laughing as one of your salespeople had to go get pads to fill out my A cups :( And them having to explain to my 8 year old why we were laughing so hard...

Not only does SOL have the best selection of Lingerie, but Jordy is awesome! The first time I came in, I felt like I had known her my whole life! LOVE me some SOL!!!

I bought my under wedding dress attire there over 11 years ago and all my bras sets since. Love SOL and recommend them to everyone.

I needed a strapless bra for an bridesmaid dress and a Victoria Secret employee told me that they didn't have bras that fit me and girls like me shouldn't wear strapless dresses Devastated that she hurt my feelings and that I wasn't going to find anything, I discovered SOL where I left with a great bra and feeling much better about myself!

I haven't bought a bra from any other store since my first SOL fitting. that was...hmm...so long ago I can't remember. i'd rather wear an old ratty bra from SOL than a new one from anywhere else. :)

Before I discovered SOL, I had to wear "grandma" bras because it is impossible to find pretty bras in my size. Now I have bras in different colors and styles and every single one is cute! I've also noticed a difference in my posture and have less back pain because I actually have support now! Thanks SOL:)

I love SOL because they are such an important part of my old normal and my "new normal" post reconstruction!

Its so great to wear an essential item that makes you feel so sexy!

I took my friends on a bra marathon a couple of years ago. I searched on line, made some calls, got on mapquest, then hopped in the car and started driving to top of the line lingerie stores, trying to find the perfect bra. SOL was the winner, hands down! We are "sold on SOL!"

Wearing SOL bras has completely upped my confidence and posture, sexy pieces underneath clothing that fit properly can completely change your attitude and self esteem! thank you for your staff and great products!

SOL makes me enjoy being a relatively busty girl, rather than just be frustrated with my chest. Not only is everyone I've worked with at SOL amazing but the bras are gorgeous and actually come in my size! Also found some wonderful things for my upcoming honeymoon :D

Solism=Sexyism!!!! Thanks to all the girls at sol!!

I LOVE SOL because the wonderful SOL ladies have made bra shopping such a positive experience...I literally had a tearful meltdown the last time I tried to shop for bras elsewhere & luckily a friend told me about SOL. I'll never shop anywhere else for bras again!!!

I've never seen anything in SOL I wouldn't have been excited to own -- my cotton Eberjey nightie in particular is just the best thing ever. It's a great shop run by great people!

I like the way my husband is welcomed into the dressing room, to see the lovely things I'm trying on. Heck, it's a win-win situation!!

Daisy Bra changed my life! Shopping at Sol gives me "that Sol feeling. " When I leave swing a bright yellow bag I always feel sexy, confident and generally elated. Even if I spend more than I plan, I never regret a Sol purchase!

I decided to get a professional bra fitting for my 40th and have been going back ever since . . . even introduced 7 friends who are hooked on Sol too!

Changed my life - and everything in my wardrobe! Seems there is a secret society out there who love your store as much as I do!

Sol uplifts my soul (and the girls, too....) Best bra shop EVER. :-)

I love SOL! Having a bra fitting and now wearing the right size bra has changed my life!

SOL brought my roommate and I together...I transferred schools and had to find myself a place to live and people to live with. When I met one of the girls, my Daisy bra strap was showing, she asked me if I by any chance shop at SOL. I told her it's the only place I shop, she feels the same way...Now we're roommates!

Contests, friends, billboards and donuts.

You would think after a busy week of Sidewalk Sale excitement, we'd take it easy around here, but we're back at it with all kinds of fun.

First of all - another huge thank you to everyone who worked, played, and came to the Sidewalk Sale! It's always so much fun!

This year, we had even more fun, because we posted updates and photos throughout the sale, all day long to our Facebook friends! They got to see hidden treasures we found in the bins, and even participate in fun little contests all day long for prizes.  Seriously, "liking" us on Facebook has it's perks!

This week, Janelle was so psyched that our new sassy billboards are going up around town, she gave a $25 store credit to the first Facebook fan who could tell us where it is...

Right there - at 6th & Kalamath - for all the world to see...and to take pictures of. (But only when the light is red!) The SOL girl who took this photo claims there's a really good view of the billboard from the donut store across the street, but we think that's just an excuse for her to get a jelly donut for lunch.

Our Facebook fans also get FDF...don't know what that means? Check us out on Facebook and find out! You'll also get to see products before anyone else, hear about "super secret sales" and just generally hang out with other cool people who love SOL as much as you do!

Thank you!

The bins are stacked neatly away, waiting for next year, the tent is rolled up and hiding in my garage. Our feet throb, but our hearts are so glad to have had another amazing and fun Sidewalk Sale.

Thank you to everyone who shopped Sidewalk Sale - you make all the hard work so FUN. And to everyone who helped at Sidewalk Sale...you are simply amazing.

As everyone who came to SOL this week experienced, we had SOL Girls everywhere.  We practically double the staff with helpers to ensure that the sale goes as smoothly and as efficiently as possible. THANK YOU to all of you. 

The Sidewalk Sale would be not be possible without the amazing SOL Girls and our incredible, loyal customers.

Now it is time to recover!   

SOL will be closed Monday and Tuesday (July 26th and 27th).  We will re-open on Wednesday at 10am - and look forward to the next big event!


PS - If you've not become a "fan" of SOL on Facebook yet, this would be a great time to do so...our Facebook fans learn of special sales, new products and are eligible for "Free Daisy Friday" give-aways. See you on Facebook!

A super duper exclusive club. Wanna join?

What do 890+ folks know about SOL that nobody else does?  Well, all sorts of great stuff. Because they're our "friends" on Facebook! They get to see product before anyone else - often, before it's even displayed at the store. They see "behind-the-scenes" stuff like our fun photo shoots, or all the craziness that happens as we're getting ready for the Sidewalk Sale.

(AND - Psssst. Keep this part to yourself: They also know about Secret Facebook Only Events. Like our one day only Super Secret $10 PJ Sale.)


Heard of FDF? If you're a Facebook Fan you know it stands for Free Daisy Friday! Every Friday, one of our awesome Facebook friends wins a free Daisy bra! Just for doing nothing but "Liking" SOL...which honestly, how could you not? (wink wink)

Need more? Through the end of the month, if you post a picture of your cute Daisy (or other) bra strap out on the town, you're entered for a $300 SOL gift card. I know, right?  We've got pictures of Daisy's in Grand Cayman, Mexico, Asia and jumpy castles! There are Daisy's at lunch, cocktail hour, graduations, out dancing, lazy afternoons at home, and Rockies games. And, there are Daisy's in cars, on scooters...even in a helicopter! We love seeing all the places those Daisy's go!


But, our favorite part of Facebook is the fun feedback we get from all you SOL girls out there. We get to hear what you like...what you LOVE, and answer your questions. It's such a great way to be a part of the awesome community of SOL! See you on Facebook!

Pssst. Can you keep a secret?

Our Super Secret Facebook Only PJs Sale was a huge success!


If, right now, you're saying, "Wait! What Super Secret Facebook Only Sale?" then I suggest you go to Facebook sooner rather than later and "like" SOL! Then, you'll hear about all the very special Facebook-only stuff that's going on.


Like Free Daisy Fridays. And Show us your Straps. And...Secret Sales!


It was our first time doing an event like this - and what a blast it was! It was nothing but PJs...and get this. Everything was $10. No kidding. It was sort of like a sample sale - racks of stuff, various sizes, some matched, some mis-matched - but all great stuff in great condition.


The best part was that we held it at a "Secret Location," not at the store, which made it all the more fun.

The trick to getting the best stuff was getting there early. The doors opened at 10, but loyal SOL customers were forming a line on the sidewalk by 9:15! When we unlocked the doors - whoosh - by 1:30, we were SOLD OUT and done. It was as if it never happened. Behold the photographic evidence:

 - 9:59 AM -

- 10:01 AM -

- 1:30 PM -

Thanks so much to SOL girls Janelle, Tracie, Kendall, Maggie and Laura for working the event. And especially to all the Facebook fans who turned out! We got great feedback and it seemed like everyone got to go home with at least one deal of the century.

We will be doing more of these; not sure when. To be in the know - stay tuned to Facebook! If you missed it, don’t worry. Mark your calendars for the Sidewalk Sale July 21 - 25th...which as you know is the biggest sale event of the summer!

Where's YOUR Daisy?

Did you know there are more than 23,200 Daisy bras owned by SOL customers? 23,200! That's a lot of little daisies! We LOVE seeing those cute straps all over Denver and Colorado - and beyond! So, in honor of springtime and the new green Daisy bra (coming soon!) and to help us celebrate all you beautiful SOL girls out there, we're launching a fun contest on our Facebook page!

Just post a picture of your Daisy straps peeking out into the sunshine and you'll be entered to win a $300 gift certificate to SOL! (Remember...it's a family site, keep them cute and tasteful!) Post them to our page and yours. We'll put all the entries into a random drawing on June 1. (Not a fan yet? Um...What are you waiting for?)

We can't wait to see where all those 23,200 Daisy's are!

Where is YOUR Daisy?

Are you a fan of SOL?

We love keeping in touch with all you SOL Girls out there - and one of the most fun ways is our Facebook page. If you're on Facebook, become a fan of SOL!

Not only will you find out about new stuff before anyone else...we'll draw the name of one lucky Facebook fan each Friday to win a free Daisy bra! What better way to end the week than strolling around Cherry Creek North, grabbing a cocktail, peeking in some windows and then stopping in for a free Daisy bra at SOL?

Well. You'll never know unless you go to Facebook now!
