| - My shopping experience at Melmira was unique in many ways, and ranks up there as one of the top two shopping experiences of my life. My shopping experiences generally end with me locked in a change room, crying for 20 Minutes, red faced and blotchy, hating my life, thinking I'm fat and destined to be single for the rest of my life. And as for bathing suit shopping, that is something I have avoided for 34 years like the plague.
Enter Melmira. For starters, may I recommend that you plan ahead and book an appointment? When you arrive at the store, there is little to no merchandise available to browse. You'll check-in at the reception desk and be asked to go upstairs to their waiting room, where refreshments are available to enjoy while you wait. Sooner or later, a lady will come and say your name in a questioning manner, as if to ask if you're there, and will show you to your fitting room. Once a inside you'll undress to your bra and undies, your consultant will measure you, take a peek at the shape of your body, ask you some questions about your lifestyle, preferences and what features you like to enhance... then she'll disappear, off to the mystery inventory storage area to hand pick any item that she feels will be perfect for you, and will make you feel like the amazing, sexy, beautiful vixen that you are.
On this trip, I tried on many swim suits looking for one winner, and alas, I found five... some of which were bikinis, something I've never dared to wear before I'm my life. I also got a cover up. My total was in the neighbourhood of $1600, but worth every penny. Amie threw in a special wash solution and carefully explained the wash and care instructions to prolong the life of my pieces.
I left the following day for my trip to Mexico, and I had so many compliments on my swimwear that I didn't want to wear anything else!
I can't wait for my lingerie shopping trip at this boutique!
