This shop kills me every time I go inside. I can't afford a thing on the racks, but I torture…read moremyself by window-shopping just the same. 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.

Though I usually find shopping to be a thoroughly therapeutic experience (!), there are certain…read moretimes and occasions when it can get a bit stressful. 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!

Loved to see she would pick up pieces I won't think of grabbing and creating me a look that I have wanted but wouldnt be able to pick or put together myself. She has a true talent and is a kindered spirit for sure. Highly recommend adding items from this one of a kind boutique to our wareborde!

Came in because I needed a last minute grad dress and was blown away! There was a rack of long…read moredresses, mostly whites and pastels, size S M and L. The prices were very fair for the quality, every dress I tried on was under $200. When I was there I was the only person in the store, so I felt very comfortable when I was trying on dresses in front of the manager and my boyfriend. She was so sweet, very helpful and gave me heels to wear when I was looking in the mirror. She helped me chose my dress and was perfectly on the line between giving me time and space to decide, but also telling me how gorgeous the dresses looked. I felt no pressure to purchase, but when you try the right dress on, you know! She also had shoes in store that we very modestly priced, a cute pair of loafers only $40. Other, short dresses were more copious around the store, as well as jewelry and tops. I didn't have time to explore all the racks, but any upcoming occasion I have I will no doubt be returning here first. Cheapest prices, cutest, trendiest clothes and the sweetest girl running it all. Definitely recommend you giving this place a try. The only downside to this place is that it's not a chain, so if it's not on the racks it's not available, but I actually really like that. It adds to the uniqueness of the dress, especially for events such as graduation.

Super safe during covid - they provide hand sanitizer and ask you to wear a mask when you come in. If you don't have a mask they will give you one. Currently they have a 90 day return policy, so I bought like 8 items without trying them on. Most of them actually fit really well! For the ones that don't fit I can breathe easy knowing that I have plenty of time to return them. 10/10 I would recommend this place.

Also, I am rarely greeted when I enter the store, it's hard to find someone when you need a changing room, and the workers are often aloof. The world is big! There are many other places to spend my money.

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.

Even though there were two sales people in the tiny shop neither of them so much as acknowledged my presence the whole time I was there. They manoeuvred around me, passed me, stood near me, all while completely ignoring me. I waited by the till while a staff member wrote up something, hoping for at least "I'll be with you in a moment," but no. She finished what she was doing, turned and walked away. There WERE other customers in the store that they were assisting, but does that preclude a quick smile or hello to a new customer? I had questions about a couple of items and waited patiently. To no avail. I may as well not have been there. I gave up, left and won't return. If you like browsing $200 T-shirts and $400 sweaters while being ignored by staff, Twist is the place for you.

Especially if said clothes are of the Mexx, Esprit, In Wear, Part Two, Kenneth Cole, Lucky, Hudson, Jag, Yummy Tummy shapewear and Velvet amongst others.

The prices have leveled compared to before. Perhaps they have new buyers and are priced properly. When you bring items in, you get three clear options: they buy it outright on the spot, you consign it and wait for it to sell, or you take store credit to shop. That flexibility lets you choose what suits you, whether it's quick cash, a better payout later, or building credit toward your next find. The terms are explained plainly, with no surprises. The process is professional and respectful of your time due, and the shop itself is very well curated. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to clear out their closet or shop secondhand and be treated fairly. Also, they have text me many times when they have sales or special events, very personal and I feel special (be on a good distribution lists), very lovely people indeed, plus, they love my wee pups here that every time we pass by the store, Lavender and Chappie will pull me in, because they get royal treatment. Thank you Mine and Yours! Kudos to that customer service skills.

If you're looking for a stylish warm winter coat, check out their NOIZE line. The craftmanship is superior and I only paid about $150 for a coat I get lots of compliments on. You don't need to spend $1200 on a coat that came from wolves and geese that died horrific deaths. I hope that they continue to be on the right side of history by selling only Vegan products.

The selection of clothing is eclectic and, to be honest, my daughter and I initially thought this was a high-end, trendy thrift shop. There are not a lot of items and what there is, there aren't a huge range of sizes. BUT....what they have is cute, unique, and of good quality. And it's all new (not used). I remember there being some kick-ass long dresses that were gorgeous! I would say the target demographic here is a smaller-size woman in her late teens to late twenties. The lady who was working in the store when we visited was very friendly and helpful. We were just browsing, but had we been looking for something particular, I've no doubt she would have steered us in the right direction.

I purchased expensive pants for Christmas end of November for my wife. The pants were $30 off but still well over $100 dollars total. Christmas came and my wife didn't like them. Ok, it happens. I moved to return them to be told that it was past two weeks and couldn't be done. I explained it was a Christmas gift. Happily, customer service relented on their policy for that allowing me to return them. However, I then received a gift card unexpectedly rather than a refund. It was explained that this is policy if the item is marked down. Really? I said to customer service I'll chalk it up to caveat emptor but to think that I'd need to read deeply in the returns policy when purchasing clothing online for the holidays to make sure I'm not out over $100 essentially (my wife doesn't like their clothing) is terrible policy. The customer service agent was nice and tried to see what she could do but was told that she didn't have the power to do anything. That's also bad customer service: failing to empower the agents who are the face of the company with the customers. So I explained I wouldn't make a stink but would be letting people online know of my negative experience so that no one else should suffer my fate. Hence this review. Beware and good luck!
