Attention to the fashion friendly.

2. Wildflower Clothing
I am greeted by the sweetest little pup of life. Digger, a soft ball of fur and playful puppy of 5 months, is the owner's pet and boutique doorman. Learning the ways of retail, his cuteness is the perfect way to begin this endeavor.
What a sweet…More »

As previously discussed, Sweet Pea is, indeed, a real lady. I stopped in yesterday during a ransacking of the Queen Street strip, and after such radiant impressions, I must redeclare my utmost love.

Lady Luck is a fantastic addition to the Hydrostone Market and a shop to draw both crafty and urban babes alike.
The jewelry and accessories tend to be a bit more edgy and young than most shops sporting the locally made flavour. And while its all…More »
7. Off The Hanger - CLOSED
Off The Hanger came as a complete surprise to me. Not my usual turf, it was a trial run at the Smiling Goat that brought me to South Street's collection of shops.
I'm not sure if it was love at first sight... or more of an accumulation of lust…More »
8. Pretty Things Boutique
Ladies, Ladies, Ladies. Pretty Things is a homage to feminine flare in its break from traditionalism. The shop's housing of retro and rockabilly fashions will embrace those beautiful curves and evoke the inner pinup girl! Betty Page? I think she…More »

The store is intimate and…More »

Conveniently situated along the downtown strip of second hand clothing shops, The Clothes Horse is a no brainer. I always enjoy popping in for a look through when I'm out and about, as its always fully stocked with a churning selection of clothing,…More »
11. Black Market Boutique
The Black Market is a fun little shop to drop into every now and again. Years ago when I'd come to the city to visit friends, it was always a staple shopping destination. Nowadays, I don't feel the need go in as often because their selection of…More »
12. YKN Sunglasses & Eyeglasses
Spec-tacular: a hot 'n hidden eyewear shop located just behind The Smiling Goat. I would've never known! But in getting a good tip, today's sunshine proved as an ideal time to check it out.
And what a sweet little spot. The sales woman greeted me with…More »
13. Sock It To Ya
Popped into Sock it to Ya today to see what was new. I'd seen the window of 'Spanx' bathing suits and got a little curious! But before I could get to the suits, I was distracted by the flourishing rack of sale items. Ooh lala... I hadn't planned on…More »
