“Jen was amazing at the Glam and Fame! We had such a fun time with a friendly, professional yet honest salesperson. Came in not expecting to find anything but left with a beautiful coat and sweater! Feeling the love in Victoria!”

“Worth it to check this place out! Longstanding solid vintage clothing store. You’re guaranteed to find something great.They have men’s clothes too.Jewelry, awesome shoes….. check it out - you won’t be disappointed:)”
“The staff is pleasant, informs you of specials, leaves you to shop. Which I appreciate but checks in to see if I need anything. Im a regular and they know me by name now. They always take a sec to chat. Amber you did a great job with picking and teaching your staff.”
“This is by far the best men's wear store in the city. I was looking for some nice clothes for a wedding and to update my wardrobe and saw a lot of different men's wear stores. A lot of places tried to make me suit their clothes instead of finding clothes and a look that suits me. The brothers who operate Straith's are warm and friendly and helped me bring to life the idea I had for my look. After I explained what I wanted and what I wanted it for, they immediately understood me. There was no pressure and no pushiness. They get it. I am really happy to have found this store. It's a real asset to the city that we have a store as great as Straith's. The clothes are fantastic and really great quality. I will be returning every time I am looking for new men's wear and recommending Straith's to all of my friends.”
“As a shopper, consignor and creator for this store for a few years, I have to say- it is my favorite shop in town. Eryn has so carefully curated every little thing in there, it is a reflection of her taste and ethics as a business owner. Stop in if you’re looking for incredible (and well priced) vintage, sumptuous locally made beauty products, and carefully crafted ethical and sustainable fashion. She has it all. ❤️”
“There's some nice clothing in here for sure but it's highly overpriced considering it's made in the same factory as Old Navy. You're paying the premium for the name so it's best to buy anything in the store when it's on sale or if you have money to burn, you do you ?”
“Once again, I experienced a master class in client service from the team at B&G. I am incredibly grateful to have such a world class boutique here in our fair city. ?”
“I was excited to find a Canadian retailer selling a good selection of Stepney Workers Club shoes so I ordered a pair from Calculus on June 4 for my friend's birthday on June 18. Their site required me to pay $15 for Canada Post expedited shipping, but I figured this would ensure the shoes would arrive in Toronto in time for the birthday.By June 9 the order status still hadn't updated to "shipped" so I reached out to Calculus via email asking when shipping was expected.By June 13 I had not received a reply so I sent a DM through their Instagram page asking if someone could get back to me. After another couple days of no reply I emailed again asking them to cancel the order since it didn't seem like it was going to be fulfilled and there was no option to cancel online. Finally the owner replied saying that he had been away but was now working on getting all the orders shipped. I was bummed that the shoes wouldn't make it here in time for the birthday, but from the owner's email it sounded like they would be shipped in the next day or two, so I let my friend know their gift would be just a few days late. No problem.As of today (June 22) I still have not received a shipping confirmation. I reached out again yesterday for an update, but again no reply. It's been almost 3 weeks since I placed the order so at this point I've given up hope that the shoes will come. As a last resort I'm going to have to request a chargeback through my credit card company since it doesn't seem like my order cancellation request will be acknowledged either. Disappointing experience all around as I like supporting Canadian businesses, but will have to find a US or UK retailer for the shoes now.Edit: Graham the owner reached out to me with an apology as there was an inventory error and the shoes were no longer in stock in the smaller size I ordered. It's unfortunate it took so long to make this discovery, but he issued my refund in addition to providing me a gift card for the store, so I really appreciate this gesture to rectify the mistake. The sweatshirt I ordered instead is really great quality and it shipped quickly.”
“We always love to stop by and check out any new products. It’s my go to for any special gift I’m looking for. Today they made the day extra special for Trixie? Thank you for the sweet bow? I’m also excited to give my friend her gift!”

“I bought matching pairs of Ugg Tasmans for my girlfriend and I, and I bought the wrong sizes the first time so I bought two more pairs. The staff wrote me such a cute thank you card☹️☹️ thank you so much!! Actually made my day oh and shipping was fast so that was even better :)”
“My go-to for sneakers and accessories! Harris and his team are always great and the prices are fair — usually below GOAT or StockX I find. I’ve been a customer since 2018 and will continue to go here. I highly recommend to anyone into sneakers or streetwear.”
“It’s rare you get to meet someone as kindhearted and sweet as Margot. Margot is so supportive and kind, and she made our experience so exciting and fun!When she heard my sister and I never got to pick out prom dresses because of the pandemic, she took us around her store and found us the most beautiful, one-of-a-kind dresses! Margot cares deeply for her costumers and listens carefully to their needs and interests. She took so much time helping us try on different dresses and making us feel special! I cannot wait to go to Verve and visit Margot again!Thank you for making me feel like a princess! :)”
“I was thoroughly impressed by how committed Wes was to finding the product and size I was after on a recent visit. I guess their new style of tags have an RFID sensor in them, so they can use a magic wand to track the item down, super cool, and super awesome when a visual search comes up empty. Great store!”

“Highest quality casual (and business casual) clothing on the market!Ecologyst is a wonderful alternative to those awful fast fashion shops and has very reasonable pricing given their repair policy.”
“What a wonderful store! I was drawn in by the colourful window display, and ended up leaving with some of the most beautiful clothes I’ve worn. The staff knew exactly the right suggestions for my body type, and I had a blast shopping there. Highly recommend!”
“The staff is so helpful and kind. The person who helped me out was so kind and understanding that I deal with self image issues and didn’t make me feel bad at all. Thanks !”
“Do you need some random, kinda weird thing ASAP for a costume and don't know where to go? Well, look no further friends, because chances are they have it here! Plus, it's all made by children in sweatshops in third world countries, so if you can forget about that then it's super cheap as well! Bonus!EDIT: Yo, I wasn't bashing you guys at all, you gotta do what you gotta do, that's life. Hence the 5 stars. Just saying your prices could reflect the quality a bit better, that's all (aka be a bit higher). I shop at Ardene, as I'm sure many other people do, no need for the response. Us in the Western world are privileged, we were born into it, the same way that much of the Eastern world isn't. Not our fault, not their fault, that's life.”
“Mona consignment has to be hands down my favourite consignment shop in Victoria. The owner and staff always pick out the best items to sell at their shop and I have to say some of my favourite clothing items has come from this store. The staff are always attentive and help guided me into trying items that I typically wouldn’t go for and I end up always loving it. I will always be a supporter of this business and would definitely recommend to everyone I know!!!”

“I liked this store ,they had my favourite clothes and manger was friendly but the other stuff never care about removing tags from clothes.only reason I’m giving 5 stars for price and store . But for staff I gave 3 stars .”
“I absolutely fell in love with this gorgeous shop the moment I walked through the doors. The owner has a perfectly curated offering of travel essential's and dream-worthy luxuries. I am a 'frequently flyer' through the store & never leave empty handed. I was thrilled to take home this combination of Briggs and Riley Baseline Global Carry-On Spinner in Plum along with the matching B&R Traveler Tote. Why I selected this set:I will Never have to replace these bags! also...1. I love the glide of the wheels (shock absorbing) & the lifetime warranty that covers the entire bag..2. I love that they send a monogram name plate for each bag with a locking insert.3. I love the One-Touch CX expansion (no more sit on & zip maneuvers required lol)4. I completely love that the handle is outside of the case leaving the interior flat with more room for clothing. (My previous case didn't have this thoughtful feature).I could go on... Thank you to the brilliant owner for stocking the shelves with such quality pieces.”
“Loved this store!! I'm Caucasian, but was raised with a heavy Indian influence, and I fell in love with this store! The ladies are so sweet, and give great, honest recommendations. I'm finally able to find indian-inspired clothing that isn't necessarily a sari. Definitely going to be ordering online, as I live in central Alberta lol. The fabrics are gorgeous, and I love all the different styles of shirts, kraftans, dresses, pants, and skirts. Please visit if you love this style of clothing!! If you have trouble with sizing, please try things on to make sure you like how things fit.”
“This place is so great for notions, and I’ve loved it for exactly their namesake, buttons and needlework! It’s a grand place to visit, the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, and it’s a must-see if you’re doing a little yarn tour of Victoria. What yarn they carry is great.”
“Every good customer service, very friendly. A good selection of women's clothing, dresses, Up pants, casual and dressy and more. Summer stock is coming in and varied selection. 4 dressing rooms. I saw several tops I would of purchased that were outside what I have seen anywhere else but only small or very large sizes left. Good to stop in more often to see the new items. I think they have an avid following.”
“Beautiful store and well-categorized. I’m not much of a designer brand girl, but for those who are… this is your place. High end brands galore and a large Aritzia section. I found some lululemon items upstairs. It’s clean and feels like a high end boutique. Helpful and friendly staff too!”
“Open House is a must for me when I visit Victoria. The shop is curated with the most beautiful, thoughtful items. I’m so excited for the website. Can’t wait to visit again!”
“A young man with dark hair and glasses very patiently helped me find the exact fit and style Jean's I was looking for yesterday even though I came in looking like trash, very pleased with my purchases and the customer service, truly kind hearted worker and I felt very welcome.”

“Love the vibe in the store, really laid back and nice. The people working are never pushy but are always there if you need them. Makes the experience really pleasant. The selection is great too and is constantly changing so every time I go in it feels fresh. Highly recommend!”
