Garage Clothing is definitely not for everyone, but is very well suited for hip young girls - in…read moretheir teens or twenties. I personally, love Garage - Especially the one in Dartmouth Crossing. They have such great clothes - all of the latest styles with bright vibrant colours, stripes, plaids and other exciting patterns. What I particularly enjoy about the Dartmouth Crossing Store is that they always have a huge stock of clothing, with lower prices than the other Garages and their store is never overly busy. I seldomly leave the store with less than 3 items and always appreciate the customer service I am provided. I've come to learn that most of their regular priced clothing is at the front of the store and in the back is their huge selection of sale merchandise where you can almost always find super great deals. Always make sure when buying their clothes to allow a little extra room for shrinkage, because while their clothes are high fashion, they're not always high quality.

Of all the Garages I've been to this is my favorite; although the lighting in the fitting room…read moremight have something to do with it ( I swear clothes look better on me at this location then anywhere else). If you're not familiar with Garage, it's a trendy female clothing store for those in their late teens to early thirties. It's completely up on the latest trends and basically has everything you'd want to complete your outfit (jeans, jackets, underwear, socks, purses, sweaters, shirts and jewelry). Other than that the prices are pretty decent (regular prices are usually no more than 49 bucks) but get even better when they go on sale. If you wait long enough you can easily grab a quality sweater (normally 49 dollars) for 10 bucks sometimes even 5. Just wait it out. It's totally worth it Staff at this location are pretty friendly too.

Great little boutique store for Men's clothing. The Suitor carries premium brands for affordable…read moreprices. I don't like to buy suits from bulk-barn type stores like Tip Top or Moors because their stuff is geared towards older people and doesn't stand out. Yet, like most people in Halifax, I can't always afford the exuberant prices of exclusive brands carried by stores like Duggers. The Suitor was the best of both worlds. I was able to find the modern look and style I was looking for, and the pricing was perfect! The store is owned and operated by a Master Tailor who provides custom fittings for anything you buy. I bought a Calvin Klein suit with a french-cuffed Sean John shirt. I didn't like how the shirt looked on me and wanted a more 'slim fit' look. He took my measurements and custom-fitted the shirt within 24 hours. This little hidden gem of a store works mainly on word of mouth and has been for several years now. They can custom make a suit for you in any style you desire. Regardless of your body type, if you like the look of a particular luxury brand (like a Hugo, Canali, or Zegna suit), bring a picture and they'll make a suit for you just like it... but for a fraction of the price!

I paid a little more than I would have at Moores but I definitely got my money's worth between a high quality suit and superior service. Would recommend and I will be back.

They say that you get what you paid for and at Roots that is the case. I gotta say that the quality…read moreof their leather is amazing. The thickness and the weight of the products lets you know that you are purchasing a great product. I can say that they are pricey but they will last forever. As for the cloths I was never really a big fan of the Roots symbol bring largely displayed across my chest but I do love the sweat pants. Again the quality of the material is fabulous as it is something that will not show its washing as it is made with a quality product. I wish that they would have more sales on the stuff especially the leather purses.

The selection is not overly large, pretty much the same things for clothes. I do have a great backpack from roots that has lasted through many a ventures. It is still in great shape, and I get compliments on it. This location is not the largest, but easy to get to for the downtown core.

This store is fantastic. They have a great selection of solid fabrics (pretty sure it was Kona) and…read moremany, many bolts of Ruby Star Society fabrics too. They carry my absolute favorite batting -- Quilters Dream, in the Select loft, Natural color. Great price on that for a small store -- the same or less than I'd find anywhere else. I'm on a road trip and visiting quilt stores all along the way. I've been to 5 in the past 5 days, and this has been my favorite so far. Not sure if any place will be able to top the friendly staff here. If I lived nearby, I'd be there frequently!

It doesn't hurt that they stock one of my favourite Canadian jewelry designers, as well as my 2nd love of life - Manitobah Moccasins. I own 3 pairs, I'm obsessed. Everything in the store is Canadian made, so no need to worry about spending your hard earned bucks on supporting local, because this store covers all those bases. Which brings me to the price. You're not going to walk in here and pick something up on a whim. No, you're going to carefully stock that very expensive coat, visit it often, until you just can't leave without it. Like how I'm going to do with that Biko necklace, earrings, bracelet.. you get the idea. I'm gonna creep the crap out of that jewelry until it finally comes home with me some payday Friday, when I carefully budget my pay cheque to cut out grocery shopping. So don't go in here thinking it's just another clothing store. You're paying for some Canadians dedication and hard work. You're supporting someone's passion and their dreams. I'd rather spend my money that way, I might end up spending more, but there is a different satisfaction with spending your money wisely. Plus the quality of products they sell here is top shelf!

Now it is true what they say is that you get what you paid for and when these sales like this happens you can actually afford these shoes and they will last.

So, I know realize that most of the shoes in here are supposed to be designer and therefore…read moredesirable, but I didn't see anything that really stuck my fancy... and I'm quite a shoe fanatic. Most of the boots seemed to have a lot of the crocodile skin look in flashy colours. And other than boots, it was mostly strappy, open-toed heals, some of which still had the croc skin look. Not that I have anything against that look, some people can really pull it off. But it's not for me. The shoe pricing was still pretty expensive, even though there was a %50 off sale. I couldn't imagine seeing the actually cost of those shoes. I'm probably just jealous that I can't afford them though. I guess a lot of people can because the store was pretty full of women. In fact, there wasn't an open seat to try anything on because there were so many people in there. There was one really nice salesguy that I encountered. I was looking at some flats and he came over and told me that most of them had a built-in gel cushions or insoles. He took a moment to show me what he meant, then smiled and walked to someone else. I loved that he didn't stick around by my side and shop with me, much like some other salespeople might. It was just a nice experience that I thought I'd share with you.
