I want something big enough to fit a binder. (not that it's for school but just you have an idea of the size )
Thanks in advance!

^^^if you have a Zara nearby, I really liked the shorts that they had. I wish I had gotten a pair. They were short, but not super short like normal, and cuffed, and were very tailored and looked very smart, and came in a couple different colours. I'm sure H&M would have similar styles as well. For shorts I like anything tailored and cuffed!
^Try Winners, their variety is pretty good. _________________

^^I helped my sister find a bag just earlier! She got one from H&M, and there are many different bags there which are pretty big, and there were a couple white ones. Also she found some at The Bay which were pretty big but those were expensive.
velvetXO: for vests, check Urban Outfitters and Forever 21 if you have it. hmm for scarves.. check H&M there are some cute ones which are usually no more than $15, some are $8. and for shorts, i guess it depends what style you're looking for? I have a nice pair of black bermuda shorts which I got from jacob last year, and my sister got a similar pair from Zara. I got a couple pairs of jean short shorts today, from H&M. Urban Outfitters also has some cute shorts. And again, Forever 21 if you have it. Check those places out. |

velvetXO: H&M is greaaat for scarves! Most of them are under $15, actually last time I checked they didn't have any that were more expensive than $15! You could also check Aldo Accessories and Le Chateau. For shorts, it depends on what kind you want. I like AE shorts for really simple, classic cuts (ex. trouser-cut shorts) and plus their prices are pretty reasonable. I like Aritizia for trendier, more fancy looking shorts, although they are more expensive. For vests, I would definitely check UO - there's one there that I have my eye on. Oh, and my favourite style of shorts are just simple, really short trouser shorts cause they go with pretty much anything!
labella: Like Seasunsky said, Winners has a great selection, they always have loads and loads of bags! H&M would be a good idea to check out too since their accessories are always pretty affordable. Aldo Accessories will probably have what you're looking for as well, but it will be a little more expensive. _________________

^^ You can get Miu Miu at Browns and B2, and definitely Holt's. If you're looking for a knock-off, Steve Madden often does lower priced versions of designer shoes although it's not guaranteed that you'll find the exact same one. _________________

Thanks for the infos ! I will definitely check those places when I will go to Montreal if I don't find similar bronze or gold flats around here. I don't really want to spend too much money on flats. Maybe I will buy bronze flats and decorate them myself. It doesn't seem very difficult to glue a sparkly brooch, lol ! |

where can i get .. cheap hue tights!
they have them at aritzia for 15, im already on my third pair and i really do not want to dish out another 15 for a pair of tights although they are really nice and thick, im way too uncareful with them.
or cheap tights in general that are good quality and don't like slip down when worn _________________ i tried to be chill but you're so hot that i melted |

^^ Actually they aren't in stock at all Superstores (at least that's what it said on the Joe Fresh website the last time I checked, cause I wanted to see where I could get their stuff) buuut I think all the Vancouver/Lower Mainland Superstores carry Joe Fresh... _________________

Definitely Urban Outfitters! And Zara always has a multitude of cardigans in a rainbow of colours for $19.99. _________________

^ you can try off the wall. i remember seeing really bright coloured demin short shorts there, like yellow, royal blue, possibly a greenish one too. they're the ones with the $10 off promotion (not sure if the promotion is still going on) although i'm not sure if they have turquoise..
or try a mavi store (not sure if you guys have one in edmonton). if i remember correctly, they had colourful denim shorts too, but can't be sure if they had turquoise also.. sorry!

^ I'm not sure if it's in season at the moment, but I'd definitely check H&M, and maybe Zara. They always carry trendy pieces like that. _________________

^^Is that a leather jacket? Because if it is, you can obviously check out Danier. Or if you have a Danier outlet nearby, try there cause it's so much cheaper. I got an amazing Italian leather one for only about $100 when it was originally $500.
If you're not into genuine leather, I would definitely recommend H&M (though I honestly don't think they'll have leather jackets right now since it's not in season). But come fall time or back-to-school, they should have some. I remember seeing a really cute one from the Divided section for $60 and it came in lots of colours (brown, black, navy, etc).
Also try Urban Outfitters. Again, since it's not in season, they may not currently have any. But last time i was there, they had quite a few jackets in the Sale section so if you're lucky, you just might find one there, for a good price too!
Yesterday I also saw some faux leather jackets like that at Limite. I can't remember how much they were exactly, I believe around $40. Also, Fairweather had some faux black jackets too for $40.
Obviously, you'd have more luck and variety come fall time, so if you're willing to wait till then, then I'd suggest you do. I remember seeing jackets like that around fall/winter at Gap, Forever 21, Zara, and Mango as well. _________________
