10 of the Best Boutiques in Toronto
One of our favourite parts of working in image consulting is the fieldwork. About 3-4 times a month the Your Shop Girl team gets together to explore new and old boutiques around the city. It allows us to be introduced to new brands and get a fresh eye on new cuts and fits for different items. The last couple months have been filled with fantastic finds and adorable boutiques. We've compiled a list of our top 10 favourites: 1.) Parpar Boutique1766 Avenue RoadThis boutique is filled with goodies! It’s the perfect place to find chic weekend wear and casual work wear. 2.)

A women’s only boutique, they carry mainly variations of dresses and work wear. 3.)
