This is a particularly good place to shop if you're looking for unconventional, but very fashionable items. My favourite brand that they carry is 7 Downie Street, who make very nice, colourful shirts and jackets. You can find some more traditional items here too: blazers, suits, ties, sweaters, pants, etc. However, you won't find any shoes or traditional English overcoats like you might at Rego, Harry Rosen, Indochino or Proper Cloth. Also, just be VERY sure about what you buy. This is the only reason I won't give a five star rating. For understandable reasons for a small business, they're reluctant to give refunds if you purchase something and change your mind later. They're happy to give you store credit for most returns, but they probably won't refund you if you change your mind. Ignore the return policy at the end of your receipt, treat anything you buy here as a final sale, and you won't be disappointed. Everything they carry is high quality and they only sell new, never-before-worn clothes.

This time I bought myself a light weight down coat. I needed one for those days when the temps are below zero but not cold enough for my heavy duty down coat that makes me look like a blue michelin man. Got really good service from a sales clerk & speedily found my coat & a nice new wool scarf as well. I was really satisfied with the price of the coat & the service.

The designs are contemporary and perfect for wearing to the office. This is a small family-run business, so when I walk in I am usually greeted by Anna herself. Anna creates the clothing designs herself, and they are made right here in Mississauga under her watchful eye (if you look through the door at the side of the showroom you can see the seamstresses sewing the clothes). I have recommended Anna to my own friends and family - I have no hesitation recommending her to you.

Once, not too long ago I went through this crazy knitting phase. I learned to knit and purl with a…read moreconnected set of sticks, I bought yarn and wool and books and delved into my new hobby with gusto....I was determined to make scarves and funky hats, wool booties and sweaters. I even contemplated making and trying to sell my masterpieces, but like many hobbies that come on a whim, it passed as quickly as it had come into my life.... Until two days ago. I happened to be in Kensington again (a place I love but don't go to as often as I once did) and I stumbled back into Fresh Baked Goods. No, not a cookie shop, but a funky store packed with knitwear and unique and cute clothing and hand made jewelry. As I browsed the tiny shop, that old nostalgia started creeping in. I even saw a DVD for learning how to knit and I was inspired again! This store was founded about 10 years ago by a knitter who made sweaters and all things knit-able. They once had a knitting bee (class) in the shop but have since removed that part of Fresh Baked Goods, and now just do the selling. Fresh Baked Goods is actually a clothing label (from the founder of the store) and all of her creations are sold there (and their sister store on Queen St). Fresh Baked Goods also sells many other hand made knit ware and designs by over 30 local creators. The prices are not cheap, but they often have items for sale, and if this kind of clothing or craft is your thing, you'll love this store! I haven't knitted anything in years, but just walking into Fresh Baked Goods has inspired me to pick up my sticks again and start working on that scarf I left unattended years before. FBG is definitely not just a store, but a collective of a unique subculture that is no longer something just for your grandma. If you are into knitting, or just starting out, you must check out Fresh Baked Goods!

The Japanese ladies helping us downstairs in the CG vault are super patient, knowledgeable about CG offerings, and provided suggestions for jackets in the right TEI rating for DC winters. Even though I didn't end up buying mine from Due West since we were in a different part of town prior to leaving Toronto, their suggestions helped me narrow down the jacket I eventually bought and love in this weather. They also offer Fusion Fit for petites that we didn't find calling around other CG resellers like Holt Renfrew. The wide-selection and availability in sizes definitely makes this a good spot to get a good dose of goosey warmth.

Honestly, this was one of the worst shopping experiences of my entire life. The employees were…read moreextremely rude and treated me horribly. They made snarky comments about how I didn't need a new coat and much more. When I returned with a bunch of friends, since I now had a huge store credit, the sales associate wouldn't even pull a coat for me to try on since he said, "I tried it on the day before". I then told him that I wanted to try it on for my friends so I could get their opinion on the coat. The sales associate then walked away. Talk about rude! I just spent over $1000 in their store and they just walk away?? Are you kidding me?? Luckily I had three amazing friends with me who helped me pull and try on as many coats as possible to find one that would be a decent fit for the cold winter months ahead. This store would not give me a refund. Any other store would have given me a refund or purchased the coat I wanted in the bigger size. I couldn't believe the snarky comments coming out of the employees mouths. My friends were flabbergasted at the attitude the employees were spitting out at us. I will NEVER SHOP HERE AGAIN!!!! I rather go to a store like Holt Renfrew or Mendocino where they do what needs to be done to make the customer happy. Holt Renfrew will fix products that need mending and their customer service is way better. Mendocino would have ordered me the coat in the larger size in a heartbeat. This store was so nice to me when I spent over $1000 here but as soon as I wanted to make an exchange or get a refund they couldn't care less. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS STORE AT ALL!!! I will NEVER SHOP HERE AGAIN!!! I learnt my lesson about buying a big ticket item at a mom and pop shop. I will never make this mistake again. It's a shame because I'm sure there are great mom and pop shops where they care about their customers but this store DOES NOT CARE about anyone except their check book.
