5 Unique Boutiques to try for Mother's Day
Let’s face it. It can be hard to find the perfect gift for mom each year and sometimes brunches don’t quite fit the bill.
To help those who prefer to be a bit different, we’ve compiled 5 unique boutiques in the city to help with Mother’s Day or any other special occasion…
1. Eleven Thirty
Does mom need a new bag? How about a local, handmade bag made with not only great design aesthetics but ethical and environmental considerations put into it’s manufacture? Eleven Thirty ticks all the boxes!
2. Province Apothecary
What mom doesn’t like to be treated to some natural and organic beauty and skin care products? All that benefit with none of the by-product! Province Apothecary has you covered (literally!)
3. Frock
Okay, so not every mom is an older mom and some mom’s who’ve got more experience don’t want to dress like they’re still living in the 60’s… or some do! Luckily Frock on Roncesvalles caters to a wide variety of styles, shapes and eras; from the classic to the contemporary and everything in between.
4. Michelle Ross Jewellery
Is there a Mom out there who wouldn’t like a nice new piece of jewellery? I’m sure there’s one or two but for the third time charmed Moms, look no further than Michelle Ross’ gallery in the Distillery District. Amazingly unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that dazzle and shine the way all great jewellery should. Take mom for a stroll around a part of historic Toronto and cap the journey off with a stunning piece of ear candy.
Make sure to call ahead as showroom times vary or are by appointment only!
5. FAWN
As their website states… “FAWN specializes in women's clothing and accessories providing something for everyone, of all ages. Each season FAWN offers a curated collection that focuses on clean lines, classic shapes with a modern and sophisticated edge.” Not sure we need to say more. Just do yourself a favour and check them out with mom. You’ll both be happy you did!
