| - Urban Outfitters is a new addition to the Yonge & Eglinton area. This is a two floored store that sells clothing for girls and guys, bedding, wall art, intimates, shoes, music, electronics, accessories such as jewellery, bags, belts and more.
The bottom floor has all the stuff for men and upstairs they have the woman's floor. The girls section has been hectic every time I've been here. The store is pretty big, spacious, has a rustic look to it, and can get crowded quick by zealous shoppers. Also, I've experienced long slow lines at the cash and changing rooms.
I have a love and hate relationship with the merchandise here. The clothes are trendy and nice with a bohemian grunge style, but everything is way too overpriced for what it is. For example, you can find a simple summer dress here for around $70; I think that's way too much, especially when you can find something very similar at H&M or Forever21 for way less. The quality of the clothes at Urban Outfitters is a hit or miss; some items look durable and others have weak seams.
The staff working here is friendly but it's not easy to find them when you need assistance. I've found myself walking around plenty of times looking for someone to help me but gave up when I realized I was starting to resemble a dog twirling, chasing its own tail.
Overall, Urban Outfitters has pretty cool novelty items, clothing for guys and girls, and stuff for your home for insane prices. Also, you may experience a zoo here, especially in the girl's section. I'll come back here when items are on sale so I don't feel ripped off.
