But recently I walked by and saw a really nice party dress...perfect for the holiday season. I was in a rush though so I noted the dress and came back about a week later on a weekend. The dress was no longer on display but I found it easily enough on the rack. They had a few sizes left and thankfully one that looked like it would fit. No sooner did I have the dress in hand, did a sales woman offer to start a fitting room for me. A little pushy but after that she didn't bother me so I can't complain. I quickly glanced around the store. There was a lot going on and most of the styles I saw weren't my thing. I think they cater to a slightly older crowd (late 40's/50's +) (they did have a cruise wear section). They also have stuff that I'd consider to be a little more whimsical/unique in design which isn't my personal preference but I could picture some women I know who would love the clothes there. The dress fit perfectly (yay for in-change-room mirrors) and I made the purchase...at just a little over $100 it was a good deal on a party dress in my opinion. I'd recommend shopping at this store on the weekends as it always looks a bit busy during weekdays. Also, during the week they have live mannequins stationed at the door. They creep me out a little bit but others may not mind :)

Poor customer service. The website has the store closing at…read more8pm on Thursdays. In the last 2 weeks, I showed up on 2 separate occasions once at 6:15 and today at 5:45 both times store closed. Today (very upset) because the lights were on, 2 ladies working in the store and the doors were locked. I knocked and the moment the saw me, they went to the back room. I was trying to make an exchange which will now become a return and I WILL NEVER GO BACK AGAIN.

I really like Kismet, even though I can tell that I'm a little younger than their target audience…read more But that doesn't cover the fact that Kismet has some very quality and very quirky clothing and accessories. This is the kind of place your stylish, arty, fashionable aunt would shop. The one who looks a little younger than she really is, who holds art exhibitions and skews a little eastern on the house decor. So they have tons of cool stuff, cut for more mature bodies and that veers to conservative with higher necklines and long sleeves. They've also got quite the collection of higher-end jeans. Anyways, as with all places like this, there is always something to find for us younger gals. Some of their pieces are ageless, timeless and always gorgeous. Their prices do run in the moderate to high range, but some of this stuff will last you for years!

This store always has the cutest dresses, which is what always brings me in the door. The clothes…read moreare really good quality and last a long time. I also find most of the pieces are a fun or funky take on classics. So even though they are different, they are not "fad/trend" items that you can only wear for 1 season. The staff here is also very helpful and knowledgeable.

Great spot for wedding accessories! It was in need of…read moresomething for my hair and a jacket or some other cover up for going to and from our venue. I didn't know exactly what I had in mind so instead of ordering online going to a store with a good selection seemed like the right call - super glad I came here! I got a very cute fake leather jacket for over my dress and they have a ton of hair pin/clip options - and were very patient while I looked through them all :) In fact, the staff were the perfect level of attentiveness (i.e., left my mum and I to browse and chat until we had questions, and then were very helpful and made sure we were happy with our final choices). The only downside to the store is that it's super small, and therefore can feel a bit cramped when there are more than a couple of shoppers in it. So I'd recommend trying to go on a weekday morning if you can!

Admittedly, I didn't shop until I dropped when I was in there, but I think I could've. Adorn is a lovely little shop in Inglewood smattered with clothing and accessories. Cute jackets and tops caught my eye, as did their assortment of hats. I'm a total hat fiend and I think I tried every single one on the rack. The shop owner, Janine, is delighftully friendly, it's hard not to feel welcome when you're greeted with a sunny smile and a pleasant hello. The store is well laid out, and the items nicely displayed. Prices didn't seem excessive, taking home that hat for around $30 was an especially nice treat :).

I have to admit: I had this store all wrong. For all these years, I've avoided setting foot in it…read morebecause I always assumed that they carried clothes that cater more towards the conservative/mature side. I didn't think it was a store for a young lady, I thought it was a store that sold mostly black pants and turtlenecks. As I followed my sister into the store, I realized I had been wrong all these years. I was pleasantly surprised at the wide selection of clothing hanging from the racks. Yes, RW & Co. does sell black pants and turtlenecks, but they also sell much, MUCH more. And it's not crazy expensive like I thought either! They've got everything from jeans to hats, dresses to jewellery, and their prices are comparable to Banana Republic and Club Monaco. Plus they use recyclable bags, which is a nice touch, unlike their competitors who continue to use plastic. I ended up leaving the store with a super cute pair of jeans in hand, along with the environmentally friendly bag, of course! Like I said, I was pleasantly surprised with my most recent experience at RW & Co. and I no longer plan to be a stranger.

Now, I'm no fashion expert over here, but I do know when something is over priced... and Crabapple…read moreClothing is far too expensive for any sane person to purchase. I browsed around in here for about 15 minutes before I finally realized everything was out of my budget. I couldn't find one piece of clothing for under $100. Okay, that's a lie. I think there was a hat for around $50. But still. I didn't even find the clothes in this store to be that nice. Everything seemed a little outdated or at least not very modern. To each their own, I suppose. It's been a while since I've been stalked and eye-balled by salespeople when I'm perusing a store, but sure enough, it happened here. One of the ladies followed not two feet behind me the entire time, watching what I was doing, but never offering a hand. I mean, I may not look like I'm 30 years old, but I certainly don't look like a teenager ready to shoplift whatever I can fit into my purse. I was extremely insulted and definitely uncomfortable while shopping here. One cool thing about this place is that they do in-house tailoring to all their clothes. You can't bring something from a different store and have it altered, but they'll change any article of clothes you buy from their store. That sets them apart from most other clothing stores. If you're going to have a look in here, make sure you check out their secret lower level. Okay, it's not really a secret since anyone can go in here, but it's somewhat hidden behind racks of clothes. There's actually a whole separate section to this place that seems like it could be a totally different store. And yes, the aforementioned salesperson followed me down there too. So, to sum up: too expensive, not my style, un-trusting and not very discreet salespeople. Not my forte.

I had spotted some shoes in the window at Crabapple that caught my attention. This place is…read moredeceivingly large! I automatically felt that the kind of clothing carried here was not my style or age group. I browsed the jewellery displays for some earrings, there is a lot of displays around the store, most earrings went for $140. I found some "Hollywood" accessories, like invisible tape, tag tamers and commando liners. All of these went for $20 or so, which is over priced for sure. I looked at the shoes I was interested in initially, but looking at them in person and the price, I wasn't so interested anymore. I browsed around a bit more. I found a great leather belt, for $130, eep. I did find some clothing pieces that were very beautiful, so I will admit that they carry things for women of different ages. This place is expensive, but they have a huge stock of clothing and accessories, all top of the line. It is somewhere to check out if you have money to burn, very quickly.

I have no real interest in style or fashion so I tend to feel uninformed and at a disadvantage. However, this was a great experience. Seth Chartier was immediately fully engaged in the project. There was no up-sell and no sales pressure, just a genuine and knowledgeable effort to convert my requirements and preferences into exactly what I needed. It was a perfect mix of system, judgement, and tact. I really appreciated the way he coordinated the entire process from selection, alterations, pick-up, and the interface with shoes and belts which is a different department. A special mention to Thelis who helped me select the best-looking leather shoes I've ever owned. Near the end, the owner came out just to introduce himself. O'Connors is a case-study in how a business can successfully use superior service and quality to build loyalty. It doesn't always have to be about price.
