Boutiques & Malls Reviews

"The Mall" is this mystical place where every teenage dream comes true:  meeting friends at The Mall, seeing a movie with a new boyfriend at The Mall, shopping for prom dresses at The Mall... One-stop shopping is only one of the many reasons we're drawn to these indoor and outdoor modern-day bazaars like moths to the flame.

As much as we love the reliability of finding our favourite brands on the ubiquitous mall directory boards, other shopping aficionados live for the hunt of the next great boutique.  Independent hat makers, curated dress boutiques, and only-found-here lingerie locales are the treasures that tempt these supporters of the local economy.  Expense, justified.

Pacific Mall
So here is the thing with this mall, I like it for finding unique things you cannot find at other malls OR for electronics accessories. You can find a cell phone case or iPod accessories here for a lot less than other stores. The thing I don't like about this mall is that it is...

Desert Boots
Apt 909 vintage on Dundas West is THE hotspot for classic vintage goods. The guy here is totally cool and plays great music. The selection is unbeatable. Check out the pic of my desert boots purchased a few weeks ago, and a gorgeous GIANNI Versace jacket thats available now...

Aldo Accessories
I like Aldo's accessories. The earrings are super fun, and their handbags are really nice! Although the quality isn't the best, and the products aren't incredibly long lasting - I like the looks, and continue to purchase them.

Almost Naked
This new boutique on West Queen West has a wide variety of underwear and swimwear for men and women that is downright frisky! For once the boys get to have just as much fun with their unmentionables as we do! Brands are from all over the world so you are guaranteed to find...

Yoka
This boutique is a gem in the Queen E Beaches area. It's packed with local and international designers that are reasonably priced. I bought a number of items from Gsus and MODA there for an upcoming shoot. They were having a buy one get one 50% off promotion so I bought 6 items...

Express
I really like this store. It's a bit pricey compared to similar stores, but there are some really cool finds here. I bought a fantastic mini dress for $60 and a really nice top for $50. The selection is very nice and they also have a decent assortment of mens clothing. I...

Mark's Work Wearhouse
Mark's Work Wearhouse may not provide the trendiest clothing but their styles and quality are hard to beat. They provide everything from work clothes and boots to activewear to outerwear to dresses to undergarments. Their prices can be a little high but they always have an...

Bootlegger
I was really impressed with the service I got at Bootleggers. I haven't shopped at an actual 'jean store' since university, and was glad I went in. My one pair of jeans died, and I was seeking a new pair for work that weren't too low (aka butt crack when bending) were...

Emerald City The Boarding Source
This is probably one of the most interesting shops along Orange Avenue on Coronado Island. They have a wide selection of tshirts, shorts, swimwear, surfing and active gear for men women and kids. The prices are reasonable. We got some really cool men's tshirts for around $20 -...

Carlsbad Premium Outlets
Wow this is the best outlet shopping I've ever encountered. I'm usually not a huge outlet fan, but here there was so much to choose from. I found some decent stuff at the Calvin Klein store - mostly their undies, which were much cheaper than I've ever seen them. While outlet...

Penningtons
The prices are great. all the more reason to go there...They used to have a nice selection of clothing, however, most of their clothes are now for middle aged school teachers. Unless you like sweaters with pumpkins, kitty cats and generally like to look matronly...shop...

Eight Clothing
They also have a store at 2389 Yonge St, just north of yonge and eglinton, I usually pop in once in a while and find some really great pieces in the sales rack with 50% discounts but regulary there stuff is a little expensive.

Schad Blu
This boutique is located in the heart of downtown Ottawa in the historic Byward market area. Chalk full of trendy and designer pieces, it is a must visit for the fashionable. It is pricey but they have a very nice selection of designer jeans and tops, coats and great boxing...

Nine West Shoe Studio Outlet
I agree with Shopping Shorty, this is a great place to get deals on NineWest shoes. The prices are a fraction of the price you'd pay in regular retail stores. The styles are usually a little bit older, with some of it being stuff that didn't sell from the previous season, but...

while I agree with the other two reviewers that the merchandise is quite hip and trendy, and the prices are extremely reasonable, I have so many reservations against the services. Firstly: I bought one of their funky orange swivel chairs and the chair arrives missing pieces...

The Apple Store - Laval
I bought my Macbook Pro here a little under a month ago. I had never purchased anything in this store before but was always fascinated with Apple in general. As soon as I walked in, there were many salespeople available to help me even though the store was packed with people, so...

Payless Shoesource
The only thing I liked about this store was the excellent customer service that I recieved, other then that I thought the selection sucked for ladies shoes and the prices were high unless something happened to be on sale, which of course was nothing good. Even the kids shoes...

Abercrombie and Fitch
Abercrombie and Fitch does have some cute clothes but the price is way to high for what you get. I even have a hard time walking into their store because of the smell...it is SO strong!

Roots Canada
I absolutely love roots. Roots is a great brand with great products. I bought this purple fleece sweater from them, and I love it. I feel great when I buy their products, because they are Canadian.
