I love how the 124 St. district is shaping up into a coffee, art, boutique and restaurant mini-mecca. Shades of grey is located just around the Jasper/124 St. bend, near Matahari, Yo Mamma and a handful of other trendy shops and eateries. If you like to wear more unique brands, this store carries lines from New York and L.A., including Line & Dot, Anlo and Yumi Kim. The quality is fantastic - luscious, cozy, elegant fabrics and designs - sexy & sophisticated, inspired by more than a hint of Paris, and most of the pricing is reasonable, although there are a few higher-end price tags about the store. The next time I need a little retail therapy, I'm there - no shades of grey about it.

I thought it was a clever and unique IG contest. I won a couple of mugs, a decorative garland and a $50 gift card. I came to the store to claim my prize. The store is gorgeous! The displays are very attractive and the merchandise are high quality. I could've spent way more time perusing if my husband and baby weren't waiting outside in the car. I loved their women's clothing and home decor. They also had cute baby stuff which I ended up buying with my gift card. Overall I had an amazing experience here. It was a pleasure to meet the owner Krystal and her sister Karissa. They were so friendly and welcoming. Thank you so much for the generous giveaway prize!

Butterfly Boutique was no different! So many lovely items. I found the prices on the high side but the quality was there. From shirt dresses to gorgeous coats and even a lovely table with a display of jewelry, and accessories. The staff were welcoming and didn't follow us around which was nice. I'd pop in next time and check out their new season offerings for sure!

I came into the tailor to try and deal with a small rip in my parka before it worked it's way into…read morea big rip. My first impression was mixed. Admittedly it looks a bit retro inside but the staff were fairly nice and they obscure part of the doorway so people walking past are less likely to stop and oggle you if your standing infront of the mirror getting measured for hemming. I am sure this is greatly appreciated by self conscious folks. In terms of prices here I found what they charged me to a be a bit shocking. I was charged $21.00 for a rip about the length of my pinkie that probably took them all of five minutes to take care of. Part of this price however comes from the 25% markup they include if you ask for a rush job. Normally I would be understanding of such a policy but it rubbed me the wrong way here in two different ways. First off when I initially brought the coat in the lady came around the counter and stood infront of the sign they have on the wall that explains the markup and how much it is. Secondly I felt that things were phrased to me in a deceiving way. When I was asked about when I needed my coat back by I was asked "did you need this today or can you come back tomorrow?" Nowhere in there was it mentioned about the surcharge on rush work and as a first time customer of this business how was I too know? Another weird thing worth mentioning is how the lady who rang me up didn't really want to take my debit card but when I told her I had no cash or credit she begrudgingly agreed to attempt to use it. I guess their machine has an issue with reading debit cards but why on earth would you not call and attempt to get someone in to look at it or swap out your terminal for a new one? Finally in terms of the actual job they did it was good. The stitch is strong and they color matched the forest green of my jacket exactly. Was it worth the $21.00? I don't know that I can say yes. They are conveniently located in the mall however and the people running it are very nice so if your like me where it's a rarely needed service it could be worth it to throw a few extra dollars towards nice folks running a small locally owned business.

Love love love Ardene. It's for the moment fashion so don't expect to get a timeless classic but…read moreyou'll get a contemporary fashionable item. I find the sizing is a bit ridiculous. I'm normally a size but in Ardene I can get up to a large depending on the item. They have grab bags and multiple items for a set cost ie 5 for $10 or 3 for $15. So if you go with friends you can get some really good deals. Lots of kitschy items too for tweens. I do only give 4 out of 5 because items aren't meant to last so the quality can be low. So you are filling up a landfill somewhere. The Bonnie Doon outlet has incredible deals and very friendly staff.
