Girl's Day Out
See All Lists
1. Modern Urban Designers
After 5 or 6 wonderful years with my last stylist, she's leaving the province. Sad face! So I turned to Yelp to discover my next great hairelationship. All those who reviewed before me were right - MUD, you are awesome!
I was booked with Erynn, who…More »
2. West Edmonton Mall
This mall simply keeps getting better and better. It started with the expansion of Quebec chains like Le Chateau, and now we have Forever 21, Victoria's Secret, The Apple Store, and the mother of all frock shops, Anthropologie.
For a while there, it…More »
3. Anthropologie
I seem to be on a roll with those super positive reviews lately, but I just can't help it. I love love L-O-V-E Anthropologie!
Stupid expensive prices aside, this store is perfect. It's heaven to walk into. Visually, the store is chock-full of gorgeous…More »
4. Earls
I'm putting on my sad face for the bad reviews at this place right now. This is actually one of my favourite Earl's locations in the city.
I popped in here for lunch with my mama the other day and I was very impressed with the service. We got a seat…More »
5. The Citadel Theatre
I can't say I've ever had a less-than-stellar night out at the Citadel. They host a great range of performances, from The Wizard of Oz (great, but Toto kept running offstage!), to Studies in Motion (a very well-done, but extraordinarily nude…More »
6. Accent Lounge
I like that Accent is such an intimate little venue. A lot of Edmonton bars and lounges can feel oversized sometimes, and if it's not happy hour, they look a little empty as a result.
Accent Lounge, hidden just off Whyte Ave on 104th street, is going…More »
7. Bizou Lash Studio
I took the plunge and got eyelash extensions from Bizou today. I really had no idea what the process was, how long it would take, anything. But I went in with an open mind, hoping simply to get gorgeous lashes by the end of it.
The studio is really…More »
8. Black & Bold
Girls day out with Mama K, and now that our post-lunch bellies were full with shopping fuel it was time to hit the stores!
For a trendy boutique, the prices here aren't too bad, and we caught the store on a sale day, too. Lots of selection here from…More »
9. Dots Stores
You know how, listening to the radio all the time (it doesn't seem to matter which station, just anything FM), you always hear about the blowout sales at Dots? They go something like this:
"Get down to Dots for the biggest blowout sale of the season!…More »
10. LUX Beauty Boutique
This great beauty store is part of the adorable High Street area, and it's a perfect fit for a gal out on a midday downtown shopping trip.
The staff here were very friendly and looked like they enjoyed working there. The store itself is both…More »
11. Best Buds Flower Company
My dad has been coming here for years to pick up flowers for my mom, so I was totally game when my mom suggested it as the place to pick flowers for the wedding.
We walked in a staff member sat us at a table with two binders of flower photos. After we…More »
12. The Beauty Parlour
After dear Dani, my beloved hair stylist of six years, left for Toronto to pursue bigger dreams, I was left without my most trusted beauty weapon. What was a girl to do?
I turned to Yelp, of course! I tried one salon (great colour, but she cut it…More »
13. Betsey Johnson
San Francisco, CA 94108
USA
(415) 398-2516
Categories:
Women's Clothing,
Accessories
Neighbourhood: Union Square
With only one day set aside for shopping on my most recent trip to San Francisco, I knew I was going to have to be efficient. None of the "wandering around Macy's for fours" nonsense of previous trips. No, certainly not.
First stop was the Union…More »
14. The Bank Ultra Lounge - CLOSED
Edmonton, AB T5J 2A5
(780) 420-9098
The Bank seems out of place in its Jasper and 108th location. This club is surrounded by places that attract a much younger demographic - a lot of 18th birthdays and the like.
The Bank tries to go for a classier and older crowd (guys have to be over…More »
15. Studio J Urban Spa
I think I was about 12 years old the last time I got a manicure, but my fabulous bridesmaids decided that manicures would be the first stop on a whirlwind weekend of stagette and bridal shower madness.
Studio J, located right on Jasper Avenue, is in a…More »
16. Kool Nails
My cousin was in town this week and she was dying for a pedicure while she was visiting. We had a hair appointment booked at a salon on Whyte for later in the afternoon, so we went to the nearby Kool Nails. What a terrible name for a nail salon, I…More »
17. Sephora
I've already expressed my love for Sephora, but I just want to add a new story that demonstrates just how fab the big S is.
I bought a beautiful new Urban Decay lipstick, took it home, and for the life of me, could not open it. It was totally stuck.
I…More »

18. Sublime Swim & Sunwear
St Albert, AB T8N 7C8
(780) 460-0016
Categories:
Women's Clothing,
Sports Wear
Sublime is where I buy most of my swimsuits. I'm a South Side girl and Sublime is all the way in St. Albert, but it's worth the trip. (OK, full disclosure - my parents live in St. A, so every bathing suit shopping trip ends in a home cooked meal,…More »
19. Halo Lounge
So I made my most recent visit to Halo Lounge a couple of Saturdays ago. The trip to Halo was preceded by a Passion Party and pre-drinking at one of my best friend's apartments (it was her birthday). After losing count of sour appletinis and losing…More »
20. The Bamboo Ballroom
This might just be my favourite little store on Whyte. Well, it's not exactly on Whyte, it's just a half a block off, but you know what I'm saying. My style ranges from preppy to retro to urban depending on my mood that day. But I know that when I go…More »
21. Aradia Fitness
I'll have to update this review later on, but for now, a quick recap of my first class at Aradia! Three fabulous and fierce instructors, a great class of eight girls, and a convenient location. The first class flew by! A quick warm up, learning our…More »
22. Big City Cupcakes
I had walked past Big City many a time, curious about this new cupcake joint in time. So many, in fact, that it's not so new anymore. But after a healthy of lunch of only salad, I was going crazy for a calorie indulgence. Walking through City Centre…More »
23. New York Bagel Cafe
Edmonton, AB T6E 4B4
(780) 432-2003
Categories:
Breakfast & Brunch,
Bagels
If I weren't on this newfangled low carb thing, this would definitely be my new favourite place for breakfast!
It's just a bit out of the way, housed in the same small building as the infamous Steel Wheels. There's plenty of street parking nearby,…More »
24. Lazia Restaurant
This might just be Edmonton's ultimate first date restaurant. It's got that classy, trendy feel without being too upscale - hip but affordable for a dude in his mid-twenties with student loans trying to impress another girls in her mid-twenties with…More »
25. South Edmonton Common
So, understand that Jack G is right on the money when he says that South Edmonton Common is like an outdoor WEM. To me, that's a really funny concept because we're a total winter city half the year. Why would you want to go to a mall that forces you…More »
26. OneTooth Activewear
If you love well made and super cute active wear but you're looking to spend your dollars at a (much) smaller company than Lululemon, say hello to your new favourite store, fit girl: OneTooth!
My favourite thing they carry here is work-out bottoms.…More »
27. Chrome Spa Salon
So I did it...I got my hair did! It was a big deal because it was the first time I had set foot in a salon since before I even got married, save for that one terrible, horrible bang trim that we shall never speak of again.
I came here with one of…More »
28. The Old Strathcona Rack
After plans for Girls Night Out Bulldogs at Julio's went south (a 45 min wait for two of us!), we made the decision to check out The Rack.
It was about 9 PM on a Saturday night when we arrived so it wasn't very busy (yet). We saddled up at the bar…More »
29. Spa Lady
After a lot of serious thought, I've come to the conclusion that I really love Spa Lady. My fellow yelpers are usually spot-on with their thoughts so I was pretty skeptical about this gym, but I've really, really been wanting to switch gyms, and my…More »
30. Culina
My friend Sarah had the fantastic idea to go for brunch at Culina. I made reservations, as per Yelper recommendations, which were also a fantastic idea. We watched as several couples and larger groups were turned away and given a long wait time, all…More »
31. Zara
If you told me that I could only shop at one chain store for the rest of my life, I would probably pick Zara. Well, maybe Anthropologie if it weren't so dang pricey! So Zara is my happy medium between fashionable and affordable.
You'll see some…More »
32. Ponytails + Horseshoes
I just had the best salon experience of my life.
I need to give a bit of backstory, which I swear will have a point: I went to the same stylist, Danielle, for 6 years. She was amazing. Then she moved to Toronto, and since then I've been bouncing…More »
