I was tempted to deprive you all of JNBY simply because I want it all to myself but what kind of Yelp-er would I be if I did something like that? Not a very good one!  So alright, you're lucky I am feeling generous today and that I wish to divulge…More »

Okay okay, I understand that 'vintage' is considered another euphemism for 'old' and under this definition it should also be considered 'cheap'...unfortunately, this is no longer the case but I refuse to believe that you cannot find some seriously…More »

While some of Main's design boutiques offer classic tailoring and unique utilitarian looks, Liquid brings it up a notch with bold designs and prints to get you noticed in a different way. The young lady behind the sales counter, the owner's sister,…More »

With no lack of interesting shops on Main, Ark seems to maintain a cool vibe with little pretension in the air, something that is certainly NOT lacking on Main Street.  The ladies running the shop were totally helpful and inviting, they made no…More »

I'll be honest, at first glance this place appears a bit wacky, and luckily, that's exactly what it is!  Akin to my closet after a hurricane hit, Temple of the Modern Girl is a grand ol' mess of some new and mostly vintage clothing, accessories and…More »

The very recently opened Valley of the Dolls boutique is a welcome addition to the fashion scene in Vancouver.  Owner Avril Tait, also the proprietor of Libertine in Gastown, clearly knows what the stylistas of Vancouver want and need.  The store is…More »

Some might say I'm a little bit too old to be shopping in Off The Wall, but I tell those people to shove it!  Off The Wall generally appeals to the teen and up crowd with Mavi, Roxy, Billabong, Adidas, Bench and Guess but I come here for the great,…More »
