She was incredibly unfriendly, belittled choices made, made unwanted comments, and within hearing distance of myself and my friend accused a woman of wearing a garment before returning it, even though the price tags were exposed on the outside. With all the wonderful places to shop at in Vancouver, a clothing store, or any store, needs to be at the top of their game when it comes to service and this place is a real loser and not one I will ever frequent again!

What I like about Simons is that there are a large portion of their items are unique to Simons, they have their own name brands in different departments including a line of their very own "Maison" homewares and linen goods all are in good quality, style and price! Of course, they also have the name brand items that are at the other end of the spectrum, with this kind of marketing, they are smart to capture a larger segment of clientele. Service is above average in today's "Department" store type retail, as we see more and more stores only offer a bare bone minimum floor staff, and most often the only Service Staffs is at the Cashier. So all in all, I have to say, with Simons being here in Vancouver, it raised the bar for the Department Stores and offers a greater choice for shoppers!

I purchased a puffer jacket that I really loved in November or December 2024. Shortly after buying…read moreit, I began noticing a few feathers on my clothing. At first, it seemed minor and I assumed it was normal wear. However, by November 2025, I had to replace the jacket because the zipper failed completely and would no longer zip up. I repurchased the same style because I genuinely liked the jacket. Unfortunately, on just the third wear, I started seeing an excessive amount of feathers all over my clothing. Since then, the feather loss has only gotten worse. To make matters more frustrating, the zipper on this replacement jacket has also failed. Both jackets were purchased intentionally with room to layer underneath, so fit was not an issue. At this point, the jacket is essentially unwearable due to severe down leakage and repeated zipper failure. It's disappointing, but I can now understand why this particular jacket is frequently on sale -- the quality simply isn't there.

The second navy blue number with Fortuny pleating again, hemline ties to vary your length. These dresses are fabulous for travel, most will fit into a carry-on. Yamazaki also stocks ultra fine knit camis and leggings in more than a rainbow of colours. Tops and bottoms, some with vintage kimono silks as trim. Everything is au courant for style. The proprietor knows his fabrics and is a delight as he finds the perfect piece for you. The red chandeliers and opera playing in the background make this a great shopping experience. Also the most ethereal water colour cards featuring adorable cats.

AND be sure to get…read morean itemized receipt if you purchase more than one item because normally he does NOT do this. If you discover, as I recently have, that I was sold a damaged item, then you might not have any recourse in getting the charge reversed with your credit card company if the receipt is not itemized. MY EXPERIENCE. In late August 2020, I spent $750 on 4 pieces of clothing at Yamazaki in West Vancouver. I recently discovered damage on one of those pieces - a jacket that I haven't even worn yet. There are broken threads - not done by me - on its back which was done prior to me purchasing it because it's been on a hanger in my closet for the past 2 months! Perhaps a customer's ring caught on a thread and caused the damage. I don't know. The store doesn't have a 3-way mirror, so you can't inspect the back of a piece of clothing 360º at the store, and my long hair might have covered the damage on its back so I couldn't see it. The owner told me it was FINAL SALE. Its price? Over $200! For a damaged piece of clothing! It is obvious that the owner is fastidious, so I am wondering if the owner knew the jacket was damaged and wanted to sell it as soon as possible because, oddly, it was the first piece of clothing he chose for me to try on. On another piece he sold me, he gave me a price that he later charged me $25 more for. I want to support local small businesses but my faith in Yamazaki has been destroyed.

Prices rarely dip below the $200 mark but you'd almost swear it's worth the splurge and temptation to claim "fashion need" bankruptcy. The pieces in this boutique are exquisite and come from a splattering of designers - both known and emerging - who all have impeccable taste. Unique combinations of neutral tones and tactile materials mix with bohemian and eclectic to create the most stylish wardrobe a girl could hope for. Apart from the shell-shocking price tags, the shopping experience at Misch is very pleasurable. Hardwood floors and neatly arrange racks make for easy garment spotting and you'll also find a small assortment of very groovy shoes and bags to compliment your gorgeous look. I will definitely return to Misch to shop up a storm, once I've made my millions.

Like when you are invited to a big event or posh party last minute, only to discover you have absolutely nothing to wear! In this scenario, retail therapy can quickly turn into a complete and total nightmare. My suggestion: choose a store that will calm and relax your nerves, no matter how frantic you feel. With flowers, relaxing music, and aromatherapy, Misch on Granville Street creates an atmosphere conducive to finding the perfect outfit. Peruse the racks of neatly filed fashion finds for many big names in fashion, some hot off the runway, in a plethora of fabrics, patterns, and cuts, lace, satin, cashmere; dresses, skirts, pants, blazers, tops, and jackets, shoes, and designer jewellery. Trend with a twist is what you'll find at Misch. And, since they only order one size of each piece, you'll never get caught wearing someone else's outfit!

Maybe if I loved the styles more, I can justify it and perhaps if they had a sale. Then again, everyone has different styles since my friend just loved this store.

12 months later and my love affair with this little shop stands…read more Last week, I was walking the Make It Festival when the infamous Karen jumped into the aisle in front of me. Not only did she remember me (i've bumped into her a few times at the shop, but not more then a handful) but she was still the incredibly energetic, totally genuine ball of sunshine that made me RUN home to pen that first review back in January. And so, as a tip of the hat to my top service ninja of the year, I thought it be best to share some new findings at Two of Hearts: 1. Karen has a jewellery line that she sells at the shop! Go buy it and support local crafters and an all around rad person! ...I don't remember the name, because I took a business card and had her write down the specifics on a few pieces. Such organization obviously means I will lose said card within 24 hours. I do however have a note that says: "Sounds like the muppets song Mahna Mahna." Because i'm an adult. So I will take that to the Twitterverse for further investigation. Stay tuned. 2. Hats!! If you are looking for the most fabulous fall hat, go check out the Andre felt hats from Montreal. I debated over mine last January and it is singlehandedly my second favourite purchase of the year (it's tough to compete with the Fiat...) They are an excellent price (under $100), made in Canada and just classic, beautiful pieces. But if you buy the red one in the window before, I will get mad at you. Bonus points: you can't even find this line online for a better price. Tip of the hat 2ofH. 3. Bags! I have beat the s%&t out of my bag over the year - every day, dual laptop wielding and it has survived. Definitely looking a bit worse for wear, but it's held up far better then I expected, considering the price point is so reasonable. Right now, they have super awesome colours like hot pink mailbags & bright red clutches. It's a rainbow money suck! 4. Still with the awesome people. Karen isn't an anomaly here. Honest to gosh, i've had nothing but the most fabulous service every time i've gone in. Everyone who works here is all sugar & spice. ...I still have yet to find any actual clothing that fits me properly here... but I don't care. Great accessories & fab people will keep this place as a go to. *** Meiku Designs!!! ... not even close.

Hi, I went into this store recently and I was disappointed with my experience. The one good thing…read moreis the clothes were so cute and I LOVED the way the store was set up. But as soon as I walked in, no one greeted me or said hi. I walked around for at least 10 minutes picking a handful of clothes and upset that I haven't been acknowledged. The two girls working were talking quite loud of gossip (I didn't care about the details I was just hoping one would notice I'm carrying a pile of clothes). Eventually I just got so tired I said "Can one of you please start me a fitting room", thankfully one of them walked over. As I was browsing the store she did come over once to grab another pile of clothes from me. But no other acknowledgement, no smile or how can I help you? I do understand I look young, I am mixed race, but it's getting absurd that customer service still makes customers feel this way. It was a nice sunny day and I felt so awkward when I feel like I'm bothering staff but barely acknowledging me. And I did notice, every person who walked in after me was greeted and helped. I feel like I look old enough for someone to think I'm in my career, going into a store that I am thankful to afford, and feeling again like I'm a bother in the store. Hopefully service will be better next time.
