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

When I am looking for something at Laura's, my next stop is not Value Village. It was poor taste for her to suggest that I should to go to Value Village to find it there instead. She was a rude person. She was abrupt individual. If you buy Any item and you are treated well in the sales process, that item holds more value and a good memory of the sales experience.

It doesn't hurt that they stock one of my favourite Canadian jewelry designers, as well as my 2nd love of life - Manitobah Moccasins. I own 3 pairs, I'm obsessed. Everything in the store is Canadian made, so no need to worry about spending your hard earned bucks on supporting local, because this store covers all those bases. Which brings me to the price. You're not going to walk in here and pick something up on a whim. No, you're going to carefully stock that very expensive coat, visit it often, until you just can't leave without it. Like how I'm going to do with that Biko necklace, earrings, bracelet.. you get the idea. I'm gonna creep the crap out of that jewelry until it finally comes home with me some payday Friday, when I carefully budget my pay cheque to cut out grocery shopping. So don't go in here thinking it's just another clothing store. You're paying for some Canadians dedication and hard work. You're supporting someone's passion and their dreams. I'd rather spend my money that way, I might end up spending more, but there is a different satisfaction with spending your money wisely. Plus the quality of products they sell here is top shelf!

There is nothing I like better than shopping local, plus supporting Canadian makers. The clothing in here was so cute! A great mix of professional yet fun things for the office and stuff to sweat in. I loved the dresses and skirts in here, I can't remember the brand now, but the fabrics were a dream! Fantastic quality. You have to check out this spot, you will fall in love.

She was probably the best part of the experience- friendly, and was really helpful and real with giving recommendations suited to my interests and budget. I ended up there a few times over a couple of days, and she always remembered me, and even asked if I'd had a chance to try out the earrings yet! Wonderful experience overall :)

Turbine is bringing high fashion to Atlantic Canada in a way that will entice fickle fashionistas and budget shoppers alike. With some stunning pieces available for $50 (I'm thinking specifically about the signature Turbine belt), it's all about the accessible accessories! They don't have menswear so I didn't dive too deep into the product but the store is gorgeous, dynamic and fun to shop in whether you're looking for something specific, or just appreciate beautiful things.

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!
