Want Apothecary is an okay store. It’s got a good selection of high end clothes, accessories and cosmetics. They’ve got very nice shoes and gloves and bags here. I have quite a few items from this place including my winter gloves(the zipper is two toned gold and silver!) and galoshes, a very nice blue shirt, a pair of stylish and shiny black Oxfords, two wallets and the Trudeau bag. If you find it to be a bit pricey then maybe wait for the annual clearance sale in the spring. The staff are usually pleasant and helpful enough unless you manage to catch them on an off day. Go in peruse and don’t feel pressured to buy anything … this store is dong pretty well for itself. It just expanded next door and will be expanding once again to accommodate the cosmetic department. In any case … I prefer m0851 because I can be sure of the local and ethical provenance of their offered items.

It’s a cute store, I’ll give them that. Acne Studio, Filippa K, their own brand of the leather bags(which by the way are super cute but aren’t totally practical), with a properly curated, carefully edited selection. Everything is pretty much black, white or neutral. Don’t expect to really find prints or colours in here. The people working here are SONICE, not at all snobby, very kind and a real treasure trove of things. The only thing is the pricing. Expect to pay $ 200 — $ 600 for any given item of colothing.

The lady who helped us(Christina?) was the nicest person we met in this fair city. Got a sick pair of shoes for %50 off!

Pricey, chi chi imported clothing/accessory/cosmetics store. Here is where one would go if one has the cash & yen for very expensive imported jeans, shirts, sweaters, bags and costume jewelry, etc. This is also the only place in town that stocks the full Australian skin/haircare line«Aesop». Stock very neatly and accesibly laid out, whole store well lit, staff not snotty or pushy, even the skin/hair care products are easily accessibe for you to test. Have cash will buy.

modern vintage that only hipsters can curate. want is filled with beautifully designed goods from high quality swedish items from labels such as nudie or acne. this shop has the word gorgeous-ness defined. from body care items to old fashioned grooming kits, want is a well lit treasure trove. it’s what ralph lauren aspires to be. you’d think the neighborhood would have a snobbish feel but the people who work there are warm and passionate about the products. sure to hit the wallet, want has items you will«want» to have or to treat someone else to a fabulous gift. i love, i love.
