Forget tree-huggers, Birkenstocks and flannel. West-coasters have a style all their own and Vancouver, one of the most hip cities in the West, has become
a must-visit shopping destination in Canada. We catch up with local stylist, Luisa Rino, to give us the scoop on the hottest boutiques in Lotus Land to hit your pocket-book.
Some might argue that trying to find the perfect fitting pair of jeans is about as easy as finding a flattering bikini – in January. Rino suggests a visit to Dutil Denim (303 West Cordova Street, 604-688-8892), a hot little denim shop with dozens and dozens of brands – and they aren't the usual selection of Sevens or H jeans. "You can get the exclusive designer denim that isn't anywhere else in the city, sometimes even in Canada. They have every shape, cut, colour you can imagine, even baby jeans! Now you can sport your skinnies with your mini-me too!" www.dutildenim.com
From denim to feminine – Miss Coquette out near the University of British Columbia (4372 West 10th Avenue West, 604-221-2888) is worth the trek. This
boutique is stocked with all things feminine. Most notable is their expansive dress selection. Expect to see a good range of Evan & Dean, the hottest new designers to come out of Vancouver "who will be hitting the radar hard come spring" says Rino. Miss Coquette also boasts a solid selection of Nougat from the UK. "The dress is such a great staple item for every woman's wardrobe, especially now with the tent dress being a must-have for spring!".
