| - Trove is one of my "holy grail"/top 5 places to shop in Toronto. If I have money to burn* you can pretty much guarantee I'll do a stopover at Trove on Bathurst (or their new location in Bloor West, which is dangerously close to where I live). It has renewed my love jewellery and pretty things!
When you walk into Trove you're greeted with seasonal accessories like scarves, hats, totes and the like, but once you get deeper into the store (ie the second "room") you'll be truly wowed. There is a veritable TROVE (har har) of goodies to sift through and admire, a lot of which includes hand-crafted gems from local artists. All the pendants, chains, charms and chandelier earrings you could ever want, all in pretty display boxes. I'm not kidding when I say I have to set an item and price limit when I walk through the door, otherwise I know I'll bankrupt myself. But I never go to Trove without the intention of spoiling myself and picking up at least one necklace or a pair of earrings. All of my favourite jewellery is from Trove and the staff has helped me pick it!
Oh, and I didn't even talk about the entire arsenal of boots, sandals and hard-to-find shoe brands at decent prices that's also in the second room. I haven't even begun to attack that section of the store - I can never make it past the jewellery!
Trove also has a good mailing list that can alert you to sales and discounts - so sign up!
*When I say "money to burn" I'm not insinuating that Trove is pricey - just that I'm 100% certain to find something I want to buy.
