It's a Hong Kong and Korean fusioned little clothing shop hidden between the toilets and the other…read morelittle restaurants in a corner of the ever busy, Market Square. Don't get me wrong... I love this place, it's fancy, pretty, clean and looks very couture. But when I browsed the clothing rack on the left and saw that a printed tee-shirt was $59 I started to do that awkward this store is a rip job thing with my face and body expression. Perfect for when the lady in the store approached me with a 'can I help you with anything?'. Priceless. So I browsed some more... they have nail polish, cute belts, hair clips, a whole bunch of accessories... on the other clothing rack there are cute little long tops or shirt dresses... either way with my first browse clocking up a $175 for a top, the rest was Yelping history. It's overpriced for Market Square... and I hope it does well... I just can't see myself buying anything there, plus they only have petite little size 6-10 outfits... so no go for me.

They are not bad, by any means and you can't vary too much when anything fashion is so seasonally based. L&J Shoe Gallery is much the same. It has a nice clean and open layout and there is a good range of flats, heels, men's and women's shoes and a few hand bags and accessories. I was quite fond of some tan and pink flats with a pink bow. Very cute! They also had some beautiful jewelled strappy shoes. The staff appeared friendly and eager to help if you needed different sizes or had trouble with fitting.

There are a few places like this I've come across in Sunnybank. Little boutiques I discovered…read moreaccidentally, hidden among a crowd of less inviting shops, full of less interesting merchandise. Julia has done a great job with her collection; the store is a decent size and it's packed with loads of adorable dresses. Looking at the labels most of them are imported. The prices are average and while the quality of some of the garments strikes me as a little questionable (it's the vibe of the thing), it's a great store and one that I will certainly be returning to.
