I love shopping at Brandy Melville. I hate the lines…read more Shopping here is like a box of chocolates, you never know what stock will be there. It's a hit or miss. It's hard to shop around the cashier area and the fitting room area when people line up to pay or try on clothes. I'll be back but I oftentimes need to plan my visit to avoid the crowds. Notes: 1. No bags in the change rooms, you might be asked to place your bag on the hook outside the change room. 2. No drinks inside the store. You'll need to place your drink aside.

The staff was great. The group of guys who worked that day were all friendly and engaging. They were pushy and very helpful. The store is kind of enormous with tons and tons of stuff, mostly clothing (men's and women's) with other cool accessories, bags, shoes, etc. They had a lot of cool Toronto t-shirts there perfect for the tourist like me and the local who wants to rep their city. Prices were reasonable to slightly high depending on how you gauge things. I could have definitely bought more here but I was trying to watch my budget- I couldn't blow all of my money on my first shopping trip. This is the perfect place to pick up a gift for someone, whether that someone is you is to be determined. And if I'm in that part of town when I'm back in Toronto, I'll be back for sure.

There is still one picture posted of the old tiny store. This new showroom is bigger and packed with new items. They now sell all kinds of products and hardware like their display tables and all kinds of nick knacks. It was always the brands that got me hooked on Neon -- Vans, Converse, Doc Martens and now Kodiak boots along with clothes from Element. Their latest signature line is from Fjällräven Kånken in Sweden where everything they make is a hit, all killer and no filler sort of thing. Expensive, but worth it for anyone who is active. Some of their products are more technical in nature but the colours and styles are outstanding and tasteful. They winter coats and jackets make sense for our climate and eschews the down overkill of what you normally see on the streets of To. Neon, glad to have you back!

They have an amazing selection of authentic '70s pieces, and unlike many vintage stores, the prices are actually very fair. Everything felt carefully chosen rather than just packed with random items.

Here is what is so great about Oak + Fort: 1. It's edgy, innovative, and completely professional. That's right. You can wear everything here to work and not be totally bummed out that you have to spend money on work clothes. Everything I buy here gets compliments. Everything. 2. It's affordable and reasonable quality. Look it's not Louis Vuitton, but it's also not cheap like H&M and Zara, despite being cheap like H&M and Zara. 3. It's got a wicked Instagram that gives you tons of daily styling ideas and their staff are always full of ingenuity as well. When I visited this location last a sales associate told me my oversize jacket was "a relinquishing of the silhouette." Like am I shopping with effing Grace Coddington here? Amazing. 4. Frequent new stock, frequent sales, pop in whenever you'll always find something new, especially at this location as it gets less traffic than the Toronto Eaton's Centre location. Go check it out and chat about cuts and geometrical jewelry with the staff. Walk down the street to Nadège Patisserie for some epic French pastry and coffee after :)

I quite like the styles found at Oak + Fort, which feels like a boutique shop. When I came to this…read morelocation in Toronto we did not yet have one in NY (now we do), so I was excited to stock up on some pieces that I could actually see in person before buying. I like that there aren't an overwhelming array of styles, but its pared down and the selection feels very intentional. The prices are great. The quality isn't the highest but you also aren't paying boutique prices so the quality has to be compromised somewhat for that. The sweater, tank top, and blouse have all held up threw multiple washes and I wouldn't mind shopping here again-- especially now that they have a store in my city.

A month ago I found Meg -- the holy grail of women's boutique fashion. These gorgeous clothes are…read morewearable and well cut, available in a wide array of sizes and colours, made in very reasonable, washable fabrics, in styles run the gamut from cocktail wear to work-wear to casual. And the clothes are made in NYC so you know the styles are up-to-date. Any true boutique shopper knows just how rare this is. And in addition to the amazing clothes, Meg will also do alterations FOR FREE. I don't know a single other store that does this. Meg is much more size inclusive than the usual boutique. She does carry extra-smalls of course, but I'm a size 14-16 and I've found gorgeous pieces here that make me look like a supermodel. All this makes Meg the best women's clothing store in Toronto. But the cherry on top is Julie, the manager. She's a total doll who gives sincere fashion advice and doesn't try to up-sell. When something doesn't work, she actually says so and doesn't try to talk you into anything. Love her. Love the store, love the clothes. I'll be shopping here a long time.

With a focus on being feminine, it doesn't fall into the trap of the instagram trendy fashion where you wear it one day and toss the next. I do love how this supports Canadian brands... 200% love it. I spotted Sara Duke, Birds of North America, and even Sloane Tea! They also have non Canadian brands but they're keeping in the same aesthetics and quality. So I find the stitching and fabrics a good step up from anything you'd find in the normal malls. I would say the overall look curated here is casual and relaxed with a pretty spin. So think loose dresses in light prints, flowy blouses, A line tank tops that keeps you cool, and comfy linen pants. Personally my preference didn't quite fit this look but I did enjoy perusing the racks in hopes of finding something. This particular store is not large so I had a hard time finding anything in my size even if I did find clothes that did catch my eye. I do appreciate how everything was nicely organized so I could look around without feeling claustrophobic or lost in a maze of racks. Service here was courteous and prompt. They did welcome everyone who walked in and that was a nice touch. For those who did need help, I could see them actively trying to find a new size or help bring over a new accessories to match the items they were trying. Overall, I'd love to support a Canadian store that offers quality items that are Canadian made. Totally thrilled with the idea. Maybe in another season I could find a casual and yet cute item there.

At the second floor there's a nice view and plants. As well as sufficient amount of seats to try on shoes. I think the shoes were reasonably priced. I also tried sadelle treats. I got the bam bam milkshake with whole milk. It had a bunch of toppings and a bit sweet. The resto was also nicely decorated and can seat about 20 people.
