So Flock Boutique is this cute little shop in my 'hood that sells cool indie Canadian brands and…read morealso Canadian brands that have made it big(ger). They have clothes by Jennifer Glasgow and Miik. They have soaps and body care by Purple Urchin. They also have jewelery by local designers and weird knick knacks like hand puppets of Canadian prime ministers, lol. So funky and weird! This store is more neat, clean and upscale-ish, a la "Yorkville" (Toronto reference) and not like Adorit in the Byward Market (that also carries local and Canadian designs, and some of the same brands, like Miik) which is more, a la "Kensington Market" (sorry, another Toronto reference), but meaning more bohemian and smelling of patchouli. Prices are high, but your getting good quality and supporting the Canadian market.

I will definitely be going back to this trendy boutique soon. I have been looking for a wedding…read moredress (something trendy and artistic and untraditional!) and I found several options here. The great thing about Flock Boutique is that the clothes are made by Canadian designers, the majority of which are women! They try to bring in lots of fashions from Ottawa and Montreal also, to be local. The accessories here are amazing! They have lots of colourful pins and earrings and some great bags! I really had to control myself, or I would have had an empty wallet when I came out. I did see several dress options, but was tight on time, so I couldn't try anything on. One of the girls working in the store patiently showed me several dresses and answered all my questions about the designers and the store. The people who work here clearly know what they are talking about. It is also great that so many of the designs are by Canadian women! For someone who wants to dress artistically, this is the perfect spot to shop.

I have to go back here soon, since I am looking for a funky dress. This store has lots of…read moreinteresting styles and some really amazing accessories. The wallets in the window always catch my eye as they have some really original designs! The location is really convenient, in the middle of the Byward Market and on the same street as several other hip stores, this place is a must to fit into a day of shopping! There is a new location opening soon in Westboro!

Honestly I love shopping at this place. If you look for clothes at an affordable price but quality,…read morethis is the place. Certainly they are not known designer clothes, but the quality is much superior to that of your usual big surface store and sometimes much cheaper Moreover, with the years the styles found are much more fashion trend. The store is nice to shop, it's spacious and very clean. Same for the fitting rooms. The customer service is really excellent and they are very fast. I buy virtually all the clothes for my children and part of mine, and to be honest they last a very long time. It's worth the detour! ...

Ok, so Yelp keeps encouraging me to review this place, I guess since I've checked in so many times…read moreand the place actually has no reviews. So here goes. This is a Winners (which for my American friends is like a TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Ross Dress for Less, etc.) that is attached to a Homesense (like the houseware version of Winners). This location doesn't carry a lot of cool brands and there is no "Runway Section." That being said, I have found a few pieces here, but mostly just athletic wear. Unless it's a return from another location, you likely won't find any fashion-forward items here. I love Winners in general, and I still go hoping to score that awesome find one day, lol. The space is big and it looks like other suburban Winners (as opposed to the "urban concept" Winners or the quirkiest Winners I've been to which is the one on Front St in Toronto which is in the space of several converted row homes). This is in a strip mall, so naturally lots of free parking.

I find this Winners to be a little bit tidier than other Winners I've been to, though sometimes I…read morefind the selection a bit more limited. I guess you trade one convenience for the other! The Winners is collocated with the HomeSense next door, and they share a checkout line. So sometimes the checkout line is crazy long. On the flip side, it is convenient if you need to do some shopping on both sides and only want to check out once. This is the only location we've got in Orleans. I guess the next closest one would be the one on St. Laurent. If you're selecting between this location and St. Laurent, I recommend picking this one.

I've only just discovered this little store now that it has a store Closing sale :(…read moreHowever, I'm not too worried because its sister store is Cantas (which I do like). Ilkiz sells unique very high end women's clothing from feminine casual wear to jaw-dropping evening gowns. With this sale, I can get great finds from $10 and up. So, there are 80% - 50% off sales right now. You'd better check it out while it's still around. It's like a Cantas outlet store.

Their clothes are hit or miss. In my opinion some pieces are really neat but some pieces are tacky or matronly. They have a clearance section upstairs which is a little messy but you can find some good deals. They had shoes made in Spain, Italy and Brazil (i.e. good quality leather) for like 70% off. The owner is super nice and she may sell you stuff for lower than the tagged price. Frou Frou is a cute little shop. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Adorit is such a cute and fun little shop. It reminds me a bit of Courage My Love in Kensington…read moreMarket in Toronto. It has that hippie vibe and smells of patchouli. It has vintage items but also new items. Their new items are all ethically sourced/fair trade, most are made of organic materials and the designers are Canadian. The owner, Emma, is very sweet and is so passionate about the items she sells. She introduced me to 2 designers that I totally love now: Smoking Lily, and Rabbit & Empee. OMG, why did I not know about these designers earlier? Their pieces are gorgeous! Most of the clothes in the shop are somewhat quirky with a bohemian vibe to them, some with slight steampunk elements, but there are pieces that look more mainstream too. They also have unique jewelry pieces, hair accessories, belts and purses. Prices run the gamut from less than $1 (vintage jewelry) to over $150 (new clothing). New clothing starts at about $35 for T-shirts and goes up to $100+ for dresses. The shop is small and is in an old converted residential unit in the Byward Market. If you are looking for a cool and unusual piece, Adorit is the place to go! ;)

Adorit is a lovely boutique in the ByWard Market that specializes in vintage, Tibetan and designer…read morerecycled clothes. The vintage selection is small and it's the only part of the store that has men's clothing, but they do manage to have some very unique finds. The new clothing is "environmentally friendly" and it's often made out of recycled clothing material with some really great patterns. The clothing is usually made in Tibet (fair trade) or Canada, including some work by local designers. The clothes are usually quite nice and Bohemian-inspired, although the prices run a bit high sometimes. However, they often have a sales rack and trunk with some great pieces, including my favourite coat that probably gets more compliments than any other article of clothing I own. They also have wonderful accessories and Tibet products.The owner is very nice.
