Although its exterior is cool and clean-looking (green building and a pretty black overhang), the interior of this store is jam-PACKED with every amazing home item you could imagine. Old travel trunks, embroidered pillows, and oversized Christmas…More »

I could spend a day in Ikea. Picture lounging in the morning in one of their bedroom set-ups, stopping into the fast food lounge for a hot dog at lunch, going back upstairs to hang out in a living room, and rounding off the day with a full chicken…More »
I didn't realize the breadth of stores housed here at Southgate. It really has become a one-stop shopping centre with the addition of a ton of great stores (hello, Michael Kors!) and a recent renovation to add a more modern look the whole building.…More »
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 »
The giraffe is my favourite animal, so it was inevitable that the Plaid Giraffe and I would meet and fall in love some day.
A big selection of bags in front (if that's your style) and the best jewelry collection in the city (well, because it's all my…More »
I became the hero of my New Year's Eve party when I showed up with mini cupcakes from Flirt! Baked fresh that morning, I picked up a combo pack with a dozen minis, with flavours like red velvet and double chocolate. (It's just too bad I didn't stop…More »
I was lucky enough to receive one of these fruity bad boys. Well, not me, actually, my roommate, but how much fruit can one person eat, am I right? These things are huge! That means you either need to have a team working to devour it, or you really,…More »
Chicken Scratch, I think you have the cutest name of any store on Whyte. Plus, I'm slightly obsessed with greeting cards, so this store is definitely one I think is worth checking out for any crafty gal or Whyte Ave wanderer.

I always find it awkward to go to Michael's, because I ultimately end up saying to someone, "Oh, I was just over at Michael's," and they ask, "Don't you guys live together?" No, not Michael J, fiance-face, but Michael's, the craft store. Both are…More »
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 »
I'll preface this review by saying that I'm not really a flowers person. I can tell you what a rose looks like, I can tell you what a callalily looks like, maybe some baby's breath, and then I'm stumped. I really like flowers, I just don't know them…More »
Ummm, wait what? I haven't written a review for Notables yet? That's crazy! Because I'm crazy for Notables!
I like to think of myself as a minimalist, but I can't help but buy something every time I come into Notables. They carry a ton of great brands…More »
I always like to think I have this clean, non-cluttered, no-knick-knacks home decor aesthetic, but I have an obsession with buying things at home decor stores. CC is no exception.
You know where the Italian Centre Shop is? On the south side? CC is…More »

I can't believe I waited so long to venture into Vivid Print after so many afternoon trips down Whyte Avenue. This unique little shop offers ton of different kinds of printing, but also sells a huge number of prints and posters. The best part?…More »
Quirky? Yes. Stylish? Even more so. And affordable? Ding-ding-ding! This High Street highlight has all of the trendy home decoration I'm looking for.
I've picked up a few wall decorations from this location of Tin Box (there's on Whyte, too), and the…More »
What a super cute tea shop! I was wandering City Centre this afternoon (birthday shopping, hello) and I felt very tired of the usual chain shops. There wasn't a single store I felt interested in stopping into - that is, until I found Tea Desire.
Yep,…More »
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 »
You're probably thinking, there's nothing particularly interesting one could say about a visit to Canada Post. And you'd be absolutely correct.
I've actually been here many times for a variety of reasons. The biggest job was sending out all of my…More »
The Antique Mall can only be summed up by one word: magical!
Just don't go an hour before they close, like I did. You'll end up having gone through about 1/4 of the place when all of a sudden it's 6 PM.
