irls do love to shop and now they have a brand new place in which to do so – Shopgirls. The Queen West boutique feels more like a gallery than a store thanks to owner Michelle Germain’s curator eye. Previously heading up the advertising departments at Holt Renfrew and the Bay, Michelle obviously knows how to keep her customers coming back. Her philosophy is clear and seamlessly executed. Shopgirls only carries undiscovered local talent and, in the artsy neighbourhood of Parkdale, there is enough of it to spare. Everything from home décor to art to clothes and jewellery can be found at Shopgirls for the unique woman looking for beautiful investment pieces that will never go out of style. So girls, get shopping. –J.T.
