They carry a unique mix of vintage dresses, work-appropriate basics, and gorgeous accessories. The store is nicely organized, making it easy to browse and admire the amazing clothing. Not only is the selection great, but the prices are amazing! I was surprised every time I looked at a clothing tag because it was at least $20 less than I expected the item to cost. Maybe I'm just used to the price gouging that occurs in Vancouver. My friend bought two gorgeous dresses for less than $150, both of which were great finds. I ended up buying a pair of socks from Blue Q and a nice pair of black bamboo leggings for less than $40. If you love dresses and unique clothing, definitely shop local at Out of the Blue!

Staff are super friendly and kind. Just an update for those who like gifts that matter They are selling the cutest wooden houses in support of mental health . All the proceeds go the maker which is really amazing. They have a map of Manitoba and come with a little star so you can place your town on the map. For 15-20 dollars they are a steal and will look super cute in my kitchen. The staff said you can email the maker for custom provinces. I think they would make a great gift for a great cause.

He was RUDE, DISMISSIVE and delivered the opposite of what we agreed to. After paying our wedding photographer $500 extra in order to ensure we got photos cutting our large wedding tiramisu... MY NEW HUSBAND ASKED THE STAFF TO HIDE IT QUICKLY. NO CAKE CUTTING PHOTOS AT OUR WEDDING AS it was the UGLIEST tiramisu I have ever seen. A complete waste of money. Chef Daniel and i had an agreement. I went to the bakery and CONFIRMED they had the exact design we had agreed upon... and then a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CAKE SHOWED UP. If you are planning a wedding - PLEASE AVOID THIS BUSINESS! They will make your wedding planning experience worse, they lie, they take your money and they produce the opposite of what they agreed to.

This is a cute boutique on Academy. It was my first visit and I was quite impressed with the…read moreselection of original accessories. Most are one of a kind and others are "one of a kind in this colour." They have everything from jewelry to purses and even hankies. It's not for everyone, but it's a great place to buy a gift for someone that wouldn't normally shop in a boutique. Go at the end of each season for blowout prices. I found a beautiful silver and pearl necklace for my wedding here and got half off. There is a lot of handmade and sterling silver jewelry which is good if you have alloy allergies. Some items are a bit pricey, but because most are handmade and original, you get what you pay for. Check this place out even if you're not going to buy anything.

This past spring Beverly and Kaylee went above and beyond by putting together a box of things for my daughter and shipped it to Vancouver for her to try - all the items were spot on. At Christmas they helped me figure out what to get for my colleagues across the country. Can't go wrong at October - you'd have to aim to miss - I'm always surprised that the price is lower than expected.

You can pretty much stick your entire pantry from this place. They have cereals, spices, beans, and grains too. The isles are really narrow so their own shopping carts barely fit. You certainly can't have one going in either direction. Strollers will be a challenge. If you want to be extra eco you can bring your own jars to fill but remember to keep an empty to zero out the scale at the checkout.

I love IKEA! I could only find the option to review the restaurant, but this is for the whole…read morestore. The products are, surprisingly, very well made for such low prices. A lot of our furniture is from there and has lasted years (and we are tough on furniture!). I recently bought a new bed and mattress for my daughter from here to replace her IKEA extend-bed she got when she was very small, it lasted years and is still in good shape, we just wanted to upgrade. The prices were amazing and the delivery fee low. The products are solid and will last several more years, I'm sure. I love the restaurant here, my only complaint being that I don't care for the sauce on the mashed potatoes, but next time will just ask for it without. The lighting and large spaces sometimes give me vertigo, but I'm sensitive to that sort of thing. Not the store's fault. I didn't think IKEA could possibly live up to the hype it was getting before they arrived here, but they almost do!

Unbelievably bad work, bad customer service - is IKEA too big to care?…read moreMy neighbor is in the middle of an IKEA nightmare. Cupboards are good, the problem is the so called installation specialists. An appointment was necessary to get advice for cupboards. That first professional advised getting to-the-ceiling cupboards. She had photos of the kitchen. The second professional came to the home to take professional measurements. Both of them missed the fact that the ceiling light fixture would block to-the-ceiling cupboards. Installation specialists came and made the space for the stove half an inch too small, stove doesn't fit. The countertop arrived with a chip in it. My neighbor spent hours on the phone trying to get help. After several calls IKEA agreed to replace the countertop, and that repair people would call to make an appointment. She would have to find her own electrician to move the light or have all cupboards taken out and redone. No repair person called. After waiting several days she spent more hours calling IKEA who then said the case had been closed. All the waiting took over 2 weeks with NO KITCHEN. No water, no sink, no oven, everything ripped out of cupboards. None of the so-called professionals has done their job so far, not from day one. So, not recommended. Save your money and get your own contractor

I purchased a sleeper style sectional last year from the Brick on Regent and purchased the…read moreprotection plan they offer with it. I made a warrant claim, as the couch was defective and falling apart. Despite them advertising that they would cover 100% of the cost when purchased, they only provided me with 70% of cost. I wasn't thrilled but it wasn't the end of the world. I then decided to purchase a love-seat recliner from a salesperson named Chris. Everything seemed pretty straightforward with the purchase at the time. I got a call a couple of weeks after purchase confirming that delivery would be on a specific date. Due to my work schedule, I had to book off the entire day in order to be home. I get a call after the purchase asking if I'd like to buy warranty on the couch, and I agree. I go back in to the store and meet with Chris, who helps me with the purchase of the warranty. Right as I purchase the warranty, he says he might have made a mistake on the delivery. I clarify what that means, and he says to not worry about it as he will fix it, and it's just a technical problem. I confirm with him that I should still expect delivery on the agreed upon date and he says yes. Fast forward to the day before the expected delivery, I receive a call from the Brick, asking what day I'd like to have delivery on. I told them that it was already confirmed for tomorrow, but they tell me that Chris cancelled the delivery date when I came in to purchase the warranty. I asked to speak with Chris who just continued to dodge my questions and told me I have to book a new date. I asked to speak with the manager, Steve, who was also unprofessional and just kept telling me that Chris told me previously that he changed the delivery date (which was incorrect). When I told him how frustrating it was that I took a day off work for nothing, he told me that I got the couch on sale so I should just be happy with what I'm getting. Not only was it beyond frustrating to have my delivery date moved for no reason, and not being told about it until the day before, I was also extremely disappointed with how Chris and Steve dealt with it. I've shopped at the Brick on Kenaston and bought about four different types of furniture from them. Every purchase from the Brick on Kenaston was seamless, and the staff were super easy to deal with, however this is my first interaction with the Brick on Regent, and I am beyond frustrated. I will never come back here again, and will continue to never recommend anyone to shop here.
