Purchased two sweaters for around $50 each that are really lovely--grey with poppies (have never see this one) and white wool looking but made of cotton so doesn't itch. Really debated about a review and I want to keep this one all for myself but decided to share.

This little gem of a shop is fantastic! It was recommended to me by a friend to find a dress for…read moremy office Christmas party. Not only do they have great unique outfits, but they only bring in limited stock in each style - one of each size. The staff was super helpful and not afraid to tell you, "oh honey, no! Not that one." As each item is purchased (at least during Christmas party season) they write down what you purchased AND which office part you are attending to avoid the dreaded "who wore it better" moment when you and a coworker's wife show up in the same outfit. Plus the prices are very reasonable (maybe too reasonable as I walked out with multiple outfits. Love this shop!!

The merchandise is all designer, reasonably priced and they have something for everything. I can find a fancy party dress and a pair of jeans both on the same day. I really like the European brand Soya Concept that they carry a huge assortment of it. They carry a lot of Frank Lyman, FDJ (especially the tops) and David Cline. The store's owners are very friendly and quick to smile. I know that sounds like something obvious, but you feel very welcomed in the store. I can't wait to see what's new for fall!

I had a really fun time shopping here!…read more I was in Parksville for a conference at Tigh-Na-Mara. We had just driven in from a few days in Tofino, and I realized I hadn't really packed anything too appropriate for a conference with my coworkers and colleagues. Oops. Emergency dress shopping time! Sometimes, I am afraid to step foot into adorable boutiques, because I am borderline plus-size and often feel like I'm being judged a la Pretty Woman in this type of shop. This was a refreshing experience! The owner helped me pick out lots of adorable things to try on, most of them fit, and I ended up with two fabulous dresses that are now wardrobe regulars, as well as the most comfortable pair of bamboo leggings I could have ever imagined. I strongly considered going back after the conference to buy them in different colors and lengths. I had to hold myself back from all the gorgeous accessories and jewelery on offer, but it did make me a little sad. This boutique would be right at home in Victoria - the fact that I found it up in unassuming little Parksville with an amazing owner with a flair for stocking fabulous things just puts it right over the top for me.

She carries French Dressing jeans, pants and tops (and all sizes). She has plenty of Simon Chang pants and jackets. (She ordered 2 jackets for me). What else can I say?

I have been in the store maybe 4x and I have never been disappointed. Her clothing is first quality, pretty and I would say competitively priced compared to what things are priced in Victoria.
