A Look At Tango In Peterborough's Fashion District

Désirée Fawn in her funky storeDésirée Fawn, who has been the new owner of Tango since April, invited PtboCanada to the shop in Peterborough's Fashion District to take a peek at all that it has to offer. Located at 366 George Street North, it is a must-stop when shopping downtown for something new to add to your closet. Tango prides itself as being "carefully curated to fit your lifestyle, body, and budget."

The store is welcoming and beautifully laid out with the works of Jackson Creek Press and Lucky Jackson on display, all of which gives this little downtown gem a sense of community and shopping local.  

Désirée strives to find unique clothing and accessory lines that you can't just walk into every store and find. Through various online resources, blogs and recommendations from her suppliers, the store is filled with brands that have a unique style, feel and look to them.

A few little updates around the shop - new shelves!

Désirée has been thrilled with the popularity of Yoga Jeans she sells. You have to try on a pair to truly appreciate how comfy and amazing these jeans really are. More styles, colours and sizes will be arriving at the store soon so be sure to check them out.

Take advantage of Tango's current promotion by buying a gift card for a friend and in turn you end up with savings for yourself in the new year. 

To find out more about Désirée and the shop, visit Facebook, Twitter or the Tango website. Holiday hours are Monday/Tuesday 10 to 6, Wednesday 10 to 5, Thursday/Friday 10 to 8, Saturday 10 to 6 and Sunday  12 to 5.
