The annual Short North Winter Sale is coming up this weekend – January 22nd-24th. We’ll have some amazing markdowns along with the rest of the neighborhood, and it looks like the weather will stay out of the freezing and in the comfortably cold temperatures. We have a sneak-preview of our sale going on now, in-store and on our website, so be sure to take a look and see if there’s anything you need to snag first.

We hope everyones’ new year has gotten off to a great start. In the meantime, we’re kicking off 2010 with some great sales here in the store and online. In addition to our $4.99 and $9.99 Apple Tee Sale, we’re taking an additional 25% off much of our markdown and winter merchandise. Here are some links to get you started:
Also, our temporary winter hours will begin Monday, January 4th. We’ll be hunkering down and closing an hour early during the dark cold nights in January and February. New hours are 11am to 6pm Monday-Saturday, while Sunday will remain 12-5. Once spring starts to blossom again, we’ll switch back to the usual. Grab your favorite cozy blanket and some hot chocolate, shopsubstance.com is open 24 hours a day – and shipping is free when you spend over $150!

We’ve decided it’s time to move along, have some fun, and bring in some fresh new private label styles. So, we’re clearing out our FCP Apple Tees! Our original short- and long-sleeve crewneck fit is now at the silly-low price of $4.99-9.99. Stock up, and help us clear some room… the faster we can wipe out these tees, the faster we can wow you with new private label. Check out Short-Sleeve Apple Tees ($4.99) and Long-Sleeve Apple Tees ($9.99).
We’ve also got some awesome in-store only deals, lots of sales, great stuff… looking forward to 2010!
We have so much fun on Facebook, we’d love for you to come join us (if you haven’t already)!
We’re having a drawing on our Facebook page – just leave us a comment there, telling us some of your favorite things about our store, and we’ll enter your name in a drawing for two $250 Substance gift cards. If you don’t have a Facebook account, and aren’t looking to open one, don’t worry – you can send us an email for your entry. Details are above and on the “What’s New?” tab on our Facebook page. Good luck to everyone, and thank you for being our customer!
Our Terra Plana shoes are in! There’s two styles to start out – the Lauren Boot (above) and the Juniper Heel. We’re super-excited to have Terra Plana here @ Substance, as they’re an amazing eco-conscious line that always combines strangers-will-stop-you-on-the-street style with comfort, longevity, and every little detail a shoe connoisseur will squeal at.
Also new… fresh shipments of Lenora Dame vintage-inspired jewelry, Marissa B chunky gemstones, Sue London ballet flats, Melie Bianco handbags, and, of course, Painterly Tees.
We just received our new shipment of Clingy Wallets by 49 Square Miles! Some great new colors are here, as well as old favorites – grey, wood, and red.
And speaking of shopping for beautiful objects… We’ve got Chemline up on the website as well. Check out the Isis Dress and Cairo Top.

Yes, two posts in a day… but… we’ve added the option of in-store pickup on our website, for those of you who’d love to stop in to pick up your web purchases instead of having them shipped to you. Eliminates the shipping charge, and your purchase will be held for you until you get the chance to come visit.
We’ve got a couple new items up on the website… one of our favorites is the headbands that Maddie (above) lovingly crafted from leftover bits of the Voile Voila collection. Adorable on everyone, and only $18!
We’re having a small sale in-store! Select leather accessories have been marked down to 40% off. This includes the Mark Clutch by Lesa Wallace – which, convenient for you, is also on our website. Go shopping! The discount will automatically be added when the clutch is added to your cart (fancy).
