    Today I went downtown to check out the new Holt Renfrew. I carefully stepped through the construction zone that is still TD and then into a burst of lights and candy coated colours that make up the best department store ever. I had reached fashionista heaven. It was three floors of amazing, and I immediately started identifying with Becky Bloomwood from the Shopaholic series. There they were, all of my favourite designers' new collections calling my name: Dolce and Gabbana, DSquared, Coach, everything a girl's heart could possibly want. My credit cards ached just looking at the storefront but my mouth was working overtime, drooling all over the dresses. Below the woman's ready to wear lay a floor full of accessories and the floor above was full of fashionable menswear. Even though I was such a hot mess (reaching heaven can do that to a girl), the staff were very courteous. After the initial courtesy check in each section they would stay within eyesight but not obtrusively so, and they were quite approachable. The Holt Renfrew in Calgary (the flagship store) is a beautiful haven for fashion lovers and rich people alike. If you've taken up recessionista chic, it's a good place to soak up some eye candy. And if you don't understand why someone would pay more than $50 on a shirt, steer clear.

    See all

    When I am in Edmonton, I drive down to Calgary and always visit Jackie. Great Service and always finds me a deal.

    I'm in town from Chicago and stopped by to look for a sweater. What a great store and incredible…read moreservice. They have a fantastic selection from business to casual. All great quality. A young woman working in the store was so helpful. Not pushy at all. We had a few laughs walking around the store. Forman's has high end apparel and great inventory. I found two sweaters that fit perfectly. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town. Highly recommend this store

    After my first experience walking into this store, I vowed I would review Formans in the future…read more However, I just didn't want to wait anymore. Are you ready for a long read? My fiance and I are getting married in Toronto in September of this year. His groomsmen and our fathers live in the Calgary, the Caymans, Ottawa, and Toronto. Suiting all these men proved to be a very difficult task. Enter Formans. The staff at Formans are unlike any staff I have EVER met. It is a family run business, and it is clear that they are passionate and proud of what they do. Their store is absolutely gorgeous, with beautiful clothing. Their knowledge is exceptional. Their friendliness is out of this world. And *genuine*. I left their store wide-eyed and speechless. Being self-employed myself, I am often frustrated at the poor customer care received these days. The staff at Formans blew my mind. My fiance and his men look stunning. They have all said nothing but amazing things about Formans. They truly treat you like family. Unfortunately I had an accident a few weeks ago that leave me with a injuries and deformities that will still be evident on my wedding day. At hearing this from my fiance, Simone at Formans surprised me and sent me this absolutely beautiful, large floral arrangement. I called and expressed my appreciation. Actually brought tears to my eyes. This woman owes me nothing and barely knows me. What a kind soul! Men: Go to Formans. Their quality of goods, sales team, knowledge, and hearts are just plain exceptional. I will be boasting about them and sending them as much business as possible because it is 100% deserved. They never asked me to review them but I'm doing this to show them my gratitude and support. Thank you for everything, Formans!!!

    Very pretentious store catering to the wrong crowd…read more The first floor is catered to young peacocks and flamingos working in entry corporate jobs thinking a tight fit suit with garish prints or fabrics makes people think you're a ceo. They even let you finance this stuff online through Knarla now paying 20% interest over 10 monthly payments. 2nd floor is where the old lions and old tortoises shop. These ppl are 50+ to centenarians with a little bit of money but think they are CEO's when they are either middle management or semi retired fogies working in corporate Calgary. These dapper gentlemen's come in wearing the canali suit purchased back in 2014 looking to buy new shirts and ties trying to fool people into thinkings they are rich. In both cases it's clear this store caters mainly to pretenders who kinda sorta have money or blowing away their company pension cheques. If you go there with intention to buy Zegna or brunello cucinelli and your not 50+ or centenarian or looking to finance with 20% interest, you will get shown the exit subtly by the sales staff who never dealt with any real high net worth customers before. FYI not everyone walks around hood rich carrying their bank account in their pockets or has a 50k credit card that has to get maxed out each month. TLDR if you have money, don't spend it at this store. Go to the retailer directly.

    I wandered into the Espy Experience on a chilly evening a few weeks ago and in need of some better…read moregloves. I left with a very nice pair of leather gloves that were on sale. Espy is mostly a women's clothing store, but if you're into denim, they have a wide selection on the men's side. I found store staff to be funky, friendly, fun, and helpful, offering as much personal space as I needed to contemplate any possible purchases. They also offer "closet intervention" services, which considering my casual (and sometimes baggy and color-bending) clothing choices, would most welcome. But only under Gayle's supervision. :)

    My favourite place in town to shop for clothes. Went in today to pick up a new pair of Fidelity…read morejeans that were being hemmed. I bought them last week using a groupon I'd purchased months ago. Always love going in there to see the new stuff as I'm not really a "fashion" guy but really appreciate their help. I'm not always sure what will look good on me based on how it looks on the rack. Megan and Adam are always really helpful and I end up with stuff that I really like. This past spring I called Megan to tell her I was heading to Paris and was having trouble finding a wool pea coat. She told me that they had just been in London and she put her boyfriend in a 7diamonds coat that looked great. She showed me the pictures on the website, ordered it in and I had it in my hands 3 days later. Now that's service. Espy definitely isn't the cheapest place in town but I'd gladly spend my money on quality things that I really like vs cheaping out on just ok ish stuff that I end up not wearing. I can usually expect to go in there looking for one thing but finding others too. Today I was just going to pick up the hemmed jeans but ended up leaving with a new pair of Steve Madden shoes. Collateral damage of the best kind ;-)
