August 8, 2018. Western Head, Nova Scotia. Lelithe.

Sandra named her clothing store after her mother, who lives in Jamaica. Lelithe is the name. In my wildest dreams I would have never imagined a women's high end clothing store in our town of Liverpool. But here it is. And it is thriving. Yesterday Pat and I shopped there. She was looking for a fancy outfit to take on a cruise. And she found one. Also a nifty rain coat. I was not shopping but came home with three dresses, one pair of black pants and two tops. Today Dave and Irene went in and came home with two outfits and two tops. They were both pleased with their experience. When Pat and I were there yesterday, a lady came in to say hello and to try on the 20 articles that Sandra had put aside for her. "I have driven hundreds of miles to try on these clothes", said the lady. So Sandra has a niche. And she has a good idea so ladies who can afford it come to her store to shop for clothes, which are beautiful. Sandra and her artist husband David moved here 5 years ago from Toronto. She opened her store and David painted. Sandra was a professional dresser for famous people, working all over North America. For three months they live in San Miguel in Mexico. But they were ready to get off the fast track and during a vacation in Nova Scotia, Sandra fell in love. They sold their Toronto home and bought and renovated a home just along the shore from us. Now we have in our little sleepy town this wonderful ladies clothing store along with Sandra ready and able to give you advice. The whole thing still seems to cry out "Tilt". But here it is. And I love it and wish her well.
