I love how the 124 St. district is shaping up into a coffee, art, boutique and restaurant mini-mecca. Shades of grey is located just around the Jasper/124 St. bend, near Matahari, Yo Mamma and a handful of other trendy shops and eateries. If you like to wear more unique brands, this store carries lines from New York and L.A., including Line & Dot, Anlo and Yumi Kim. The quality is fantastic - luscious, cozy, elegant fabrics and designs - sexy & sophisticated, inspired by more than a hint of Paris, and most of the pricing is reasonable, although there are a few higher-end price tags about the store. The next time I need a little retail therapy, I'm there - no shades of grey about it.

Love LOVE love me some Sweet Boutique!…read more I've been shopping here since the days of parking lot chaos at their first location. Sweet Boutique recently celebrated their 5th birthday! I love their new location on St. Albert Trail next to BP's. (I think it's been almost 3 years here?) From their live WIW (Win It Wednesday) Facebook streams to their name of the day discount, Sweet Boutique knows how to court their regulars. They've got it all, from the softest leggings on the planet to the best jeans for every body type! I love that Sweet Boutique has something to help every woman feel her best. They even have something for the men in your life. Last year, I got sassy and funky dress socks for my kids' male teachers. The customer service is second to none and the vibe is cozy chic from the moment you walk through the door. Be sure to sign up for their free loyalty program to earn rewards!

Each time we shopped in person the staff has…read morebeen beyond helpful, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and have had a good eye for what colours and styles would be flattering on me, which is wonderful since I tend to be hard to fit. They have a wide selection of sizes, from XSmall to 3X. I'm about a size 24/3X and some of their 3X items are almost too big on me, which always makes me smile. The staff treats me with the same respect they give small to average size women, which in my experience doesn't happen often in a plus/regular mix size store. Along with clothing, they have accessories, fun items like socks and sweets, and a wall of personal care items like bath bombs, body cream, hand sanitizer, and aromatherapy. The owner, Laura, is an amazing member of the community who supports other small businesses and brought joy to my family at a rough time when we were missing a loved one. She wasn't asked, she just offered and we will always be thankful to her for her act of kindness.

As a vintage enthusiast, I've read reviews of Tattered Rose for the last year and been dying to…read morecheck it out. It's not in an area that I pass by often but I has an appointment nearby and as I was parking I spotted the sign. Luckily I was 20 mins early, giving me the perfect place to kill time! The store is underneath some apartments but tokes over half of the ground level by the looks of it. A fantastic big space, filled from top to bottom with vintage treasures. The owner does a great job creating cute corners highlighting furniture, decor, ornaments and clothing. I immediately wished I had more time to browse! The clothing is divided into rails of amazing dresses from the Victorian era and more. The underskirt section was unreal and made me wanna dress like a steam punk to my meeting. So cool. Lots of eclectic and romantic bits for a vintage wedding. Just wonderful.

I've been moderately aware of this store for quite some time. I believe it began in Grandin Mall. I…read moreknow for certain it was in what used to be Village Tree Mall which was torn down and converted into Village Landing. But I have to say this store has survived and is now located near Sobey's in St. Albert. It's got its own strip mall space. I admire it simply for it's staying power. The clothing has improved somewhat over the years. I've browsed it a few times in the past and thought I'd see what they've got now. They still have lots of bejeweled articles of clothing which I am not a fan of. Still the demographic of this shop doesn't include my age group, more like double that. So, what's better now? They carry Jones New York which I thought was pretty impressive. This store seems to cater more to retired women. A good sign though was that the clearance racks are where the bulk of the polyester was. So maybe that's a sign of things to come.

Who conducts business like this?? i feel sad because i always try to support local business.

I loved their women's clothing and home decor. They also had cute baby stuff which I ended up buying with my gift card. Overall I had an amazing experience here.
