I had dealt with him before & found him pleasant so this completely took me off guard. He was brusque, condescending I would have stormed out after he kept repeating himself & trying to educate me on the inferiority of my items except said items were spread out over a table & trolley. Impossible to escape! Fire this guy, he is arrogant & unprofessional!

The selection of gift ideas and greeting cards and jewelry and kitchen gadgets and house accessories is bloody amazing. My friend who lives in Victoria visits this store regularly and when I visit, we come here and literally, we could spend hours here. There's so many unique and curated items, stuff I've not seen elsewhere, and the staff are super nice to boot. I personally love stationery stores, and I can attest, this store has a vast, vast selection of greeting cards - some traditional but many witty and/or twisted (which I appreciate!). There are fancy soaps and lotions, and gourmet chocolates, and jewelry made by local artisans, ands much more. I spent a ton of money on cards here (note: it's always a good sign when you hear people laughing aloud in the card aisles!), and I also got a few chocolate and fruit logs that were packaged to look exactly like salami (I thought these would be awesome on a dessert "charcuterie" board, and as a gift to a foodie friend too). I found colorful silicone twist ties and baggie clips, and some unique gifts for my kids (one who is a falconer and a "birder", the other who's into jewelry) and for some gourmand friends, too. Seriously, you'd be hard-pressed not to find something for everyone on your Christmas list, or as a hostess or birthday gift here. Oh, and their doormats are great, too. My friend found the perfect mat for her new home here.

It is a great boutique for the working girl who wants to look classy and even for the more 'mature' gal who wants to look trendy - and at affordable prices.

It's a nice wait while someone else waits in line to take pictures of the sign. The gift shop itself is rather small and felt very crowded. People were bumping into each other to get by. They manage to fit a lot of items in the store given the small space. This store definitely offers a smaller selection and better quality than some of the neighboring stores, but the prices I felt are much higher. It really depends on if you want better quality and high prices or looking for cheap souvenirs. The staff all seamed pleasant enough, I didn't end up purchasing anything, however my sister purchased he and I a very nice jacket and my son a nice quality baseball hat.

I wanted to go with a black shirt and she suggested I also try white, brought me both, and she was correct when I put them on. I wanted something dressy but also comfortable and they had a selection of great fabrics that are both. The trousers I purchased look and feel like wool but are stretchy and breathable. I budgeted for double the price from Outlooks but ended up paying half with better clothes from here. Will be returning!
