Looking for recommendations for Canadian online clothing companies. Especially ones that actually like colour and/or patterns! So many of the ones that I see only sell neutrals. My favourites are Birds of North America and Mandala Designs and I'd love to find others in the same vein.
Hi! i’m wondering if anyone can recommend some good sites for shopping online in Canada. I’m looking for some going out dresses to wear on a vegas trip and was really hoping to not get stuck paying insane duties once my order arrives! Thanks
Hey all my fellow Canadians,
I stumbled upon this guide in our male sub counterpart, and figured we should have one here as well. The idea of the guide is to help Canadians find new stores to shop at without having to worry about duties and the exchange rate, though I'm sure Americans can probably find some good deals especially with the current exchange rate.
I also wanted to share this price tracker - it lets you save items from a handful of these stores and notifies you when it goes on sale. Check it out, I hope some of you will find it useful!
I added my personal list of stores, along with the comments from these old threads (here, here, here and here), and my OCD brain thought compiling the comments into a list here would be useful to some people

So, I have a moral dilemma when it comes to online shopping: do I shop and thus provide business to local shops and their retail/warehouse staff, or should I not shop so that these people don’t need to go into work (and delivery service staff as well) and thus they can stay home and not risk being out and about?
I’ve been abstaining from any online shopping since this all started but I’d really love to buy some new clothes. I just feel like I need some perspective.
Thanks so much for putting this together! I didn’t realize that the Canadian Nordstrom website was up now.
