Great little boutique store for Men's clothing. The Suitor carries premium brands for affordable…read moreprices. I don't like to buy suits from bulk-barn type stores like Tip Top or Moors because their stuff is geared towards older people and doesn't stand out. Yet, like most people in Halifax, I can't always afford the exuberant prices of exclusive brands carried by stores like Duggers. The Suitor was the best of both worlds. I was able to find the modern look and style I was looking for, and the pricing was perfect! The store is owned and operated by a Master Tailor who provides custom fittings for anything you buy. I bought a Calvin Klein suit with a french-cuffed Sean John shirt. I didn't like how the shirt looked on me and wanted a more 'slim fit' look. He took my measurements and custom-fitted the shirt within 24 hours. This little hidden gem of a store works mainly on word of mouth and has been for several years now. They can custom make a suit for you in any style you desire. Regardless of your body type, if you like the look of a particular luxury brand (like a Hugo, Canali, or Zegna suit), bring a picture and they'll make a suit for you just like it... but for a fraction of the price!

I didn't have super high expectations based on the redundancy of the commercials. Cheeseball Quotes such as: "You're going to like the way you look" and "When everyone's looking at her, she'll be looking at you." - were playing in my head and as a result my expectations were low. As it turned out, Moores was actually a pretty decent shopping experience at this location. I realize that selling a suit to a guy who comes in with his girlfriend might be tough for some but our tailor/saleslady was great! She measured Mark and then sent us to an area of the store with all of the suites in his size. Once we had picked a few out she reappeared with more helpful hints on tailoring. We even left with shoes when all was said and done! Overall, a great experience! Perhaps this is uniform to tailoring in general but why the extra charges, Moores? If a suit comes without a hem then I don't think you ought to charge someone to finish sewing it. At Moores the cost of basic hemming is $10 and in Mark's case there was an extra cost to extend the sleeves as well... seemed odd to me but other than that, this was a great suit shopping experience! Painless, even for M.

When you first enter the store you'll find yourself faced with tables and tables of adorable nick nacks and homewares to browse though - so many cute mugs and beautiful candles! One day I dream that my home will be filled with them. They've also got journals, books, even a kids gift section. Further back you'll find clothing - men's is on the upper level and women's on the lower. They've also got a killer jewellery section (which is where I've found myself most often drooling over the rings and earrings). I never look closely at the clothing because I don't want to tempt myself (out of my price range), but just glancing at the racks I and tell there are a lot of cute things that I hear are really great quality. From the little bit of browsing I've done the sizes are all pretty small...whomp whomp. In the men's section you'll find wallets, shave kits and some really fun socks in addition to the standard clothing fare. Don't miss out on the back section behind the men's clothing where the sale stuff is! They've always got a good selection of sale things. I really love the idea of shopping at Biscuit General, but unless it's some of the smaller items I just don't have the budget for it. It can get very pricey very quickly. That being said if you have more room in your budget definitely give Biscuit General a shot - it's definitely a local gem!

Vogue has all men's fashions from suite up. Now these are not your average suites that you will find in the malls these are ones that when you walk in the room you will be notice. From custom to off the rack they are made with detail and quality. Shifts ties as well as sweaters or even casual wear that has style they have it all.Now this all comes with a price of course. But if you want to look good stand out in a crowd drop on by the old fashion men's club for a real suit.

I took it to multiple tailors and they turned me away; I then took it to Vogue Men's Wear & Tailoring as my last resort thinking this store was going to not want to take it on either. Well I was shocked, they took the dress without thinking twice, measured me right away and the dress was done within two weeks! It was perfectly done, I mean perfect!! The length was the exactly as we talked and measured. I can't begin to express the Gratitude as a Bride to have my dress fit me perfectly on one of my most important days of my life!! Also my Husbands suit and his grooms men suits were on time, mint condition and were perfect fits as well!!! The gentleman there (Nick) is very talented and precise, the quality of the clothing I saw for men are top of the line material and the prices are amazing! I buy for my husband there all the time!

When they first announced MK was opening in Halifax I was consumed with excitement. I've been…read moreshopping at MK for years but never had to chance to shop in my own city. The staff is very friendly and knowledgable about their products and I don't find them pushy at all and are always willing to help. They all make note to know you on a personal level if you are a frequent shopper. They have a very limited clothing selection I find they have a bigger display of accessories and shoes. There was a sales associate who was wearing a navy blue jumper and I immediately fell in love and knew I had to have it. Unfortunately they were completely sold out everywhere so one of the girls tracked it down in Calgary and was able to ship it to my house. They do tend to steer customers away from MK outlet stores saying they aren't the same thing as the regular stores. They have an amazing selection and their products are made to last. You get what you pay for - most of my items have lasted years opposed to something you buy from Forever 21 which isn't made to last.

I've experienced a similar situation to Heidi A. I entered the store dressed in sweatpants, wanting…read moreto buy some shoes that I needed for an upcoming event. While I was attempting to gesture to the sales associates about needing their help, they just stood there and gawked at me in disgust. How dare a "peasant" such as myself walk into a Michael Kors store to BUY something? I decided instead to walk over to a different store and buy the shoes I needed. About a month later I returned just for the heck of it. I needed a backpack. However, this time I was dressed in a Club Monaco dress with a shiny new Coach purse flung over my shoulder. One of the sales associates I recognized from the previous month's "experience." I had barely stepped foot into the store when I hear: "Hello! Do you need any help finding anything Ma'am?" I guess I give them a star for that quick response, also another star for the wide array of merchandise available at this location. Meh.

I don't really indulge mush in Monaco's offerings; the prices are on the high side, but fairly so for the lush quality. Can we please talk about cashmere? I've been having an affair with this material ever since my mother found me a Max Mara oatmeal toned cardigan of the cashmere persuasion at Value Village. My heart goes va-va-voom for this sensual, seriously aphrodisiacal material. So you'll imagine my libido revving when I discovered a $100 cashmere scarf slash large blanket shrug at Club Monaco a season or two ago. I didn't make the purchase, but I do wish to this day that I owned such a treasure. The employees at this location are ever so helpful; bringing you sizes, offering options, and simply being attentive and professional. And heyo, they give a student discount if you show your ID, which is a huge bonus if you're buying expensive items! So have at it, my friends. Go and buy a black mini with a sassy cardigan, and head to Europe on your private jet plane. Okay, not necessarily feasible - but sure sounds like a sexy time, don't it?

And while the prices are enough to leave you high and dry, sometimes its just worth it. I noticed a few changes in the store's layout since my last visit. The infamous sale room has been transformed into a brooding mens selection. Disappointing for me, as I always enjoyed having this specific little room to browse discounted goods. Sigh. Alas, sales have been moved to the back corner on the opposite end and still offer some token steals. I found a gorgeous periwinkle colored chiffon blouse for $29 (Regular $68) with just the right amount of sparkle. Charming-- it was love at first sight. Another top with a super soft touch and scoop neck-back had me at hello. (Also $29) Check please! The store's spring/ summer selection was drool inducing-- svelte trenches, willowing summer tops and dresses to class up the best of us. Club Monaco never disappoints when the warm months roll around. I decided upon the two shirts-- they were steals after all. And to further add to my excitement, I received an extra 20% off my purchase because I had my student card. Shwing! It was the ultimate icing on the cake. Students must get 20% sale prices, and I applaud Club Monaco on this. All in all, CM is usually stocked in high class. Prices aren't always friendly, but the quality is great, and shoppers can find some true deals if they hit at the right time. My most recent visit renewed a past love, and I'm looking forward to sporting my new discounted threads. Whew!

Eclectic musings come together to form Lost & Found's fashionably homemade North End boutique . The shop's mood is quiet and thoughtful, just as its clothes. Music is easy, and the store keeper sews away in a corner wooden chair. Piecing through the assorted racks, I become awe struck by the profuse selection of gorgeous things. Most times I am able to edit down final selections before the efforts of the fitting room; however, this was not the case. The clothing variety is of impeccable taste, as every item on display is hand picked, and/or altered with special detailing. And with such reasonable pricing-- it all seems too good to be true. (A large rack dedicated to post-season sales provides some gorgeous steals!) Clothing is displayed on thick wooden hangers, and well managed framework; the result is chic and polished confines. Divorce Records is an added bonus to the Lost & Found experience. Peek through this Halifax based label's selection for some stellar anti-industry music variety. Vinyl and CDs are for sale, and allow an opportunity to acquire new tastes, without commercial fluff. Also noteworthy: bin filled with $2 Vinyl picks. (Not Divorce Records) Besides glass encased jewelry and vintage frames, L&F is also decorated with DIY-styled trinkets and art. The space is fused with creative energy and wholesome goodness. I heart. My recent visit ended with the purchasing of a brilliant long sleeved crop top. With its subtle alterations-- front & back scoop neck with buttons, and adorable mini-shoulder pads + ruching-- its a dream piece. And only $18! The detailing of selections make for cool fits and one of a kind pieces. Lost & Found offers a creative and inspiring shopping experience, indeed. The carrier and creator of all things "special", this place is now top on my list.

Learning the ways of retail, his cuteness is the perfect way to begin this endeavor. What a sweet little shop. Although its been open for about ten years, I'd only recently learned of Wildflower from an acquaintance. Its confines are currently dressed in soft, breathable garments and assuring color palates. (Periwinkle, charcoal, rose pink, nude, and flecks of colour amongst it all!) Its actually a breath of fresh air, and a different variety from other independent boutiques in the area. I was elated to discover the accumulation of Free People frocks, which is probably my favorite [semi] affordable brand of all time. The owner mentioned that they would be getting more in soon-- whoo hoo! The overall stock seems romantic, flowing, and of excellent taste. Cute tops, rich fabrics and cuts are here for the taking. I think its safe to say that Wildflower has Bohemian Romantic down. The owner of the shop offered me genuine conversation and an easy shopping experience. I was the only patron at the time, so we chatted as I browsed. There was no pressure, no facade-- just good conversation and a shop full of wonders. After much swooning and chit-chat, I know this is a boutique I can dig. Besides the clothes, there were also some pretty neat accessories. I'd say the owner of Wildflower has a great eye. Understated, funky, classic and bohemian looks are all fused into one cohesive collection. All you need is a paycheck. xo
