The vibe: Tucked away on a second floor on Queen Street, being inside Chosen feels like being inside a fortune teller's shop where you can see your future in all of the clothing. Even the change room curtain looks like outer space. It's a small and cozy shop that's never too busy. I almost didn't want to write this review because it's one of the city's best kept vintage secrets.
The clothes: Whereas a lot of vintage shops in the city have a huge variety of clothing from all kinds of different eras, Chosen features a well-curated selection of clothes that appeal to anyone with a lust for the 90s (ie. me) and girls who want to be a bit more badass and a bit less girly. But this doesn't mean they don't have girly t't to Chosen and you can find sexy little lace slips, James Dean-esque leather jackets, and combat boots for dancing all night.
The staff: No complaints here. The owner and the one other girl I've met are both super friendly, helpful and full of interesting tidbits about the pieces.
Best finds: I bought the most comfortable/warm/amazing winter boots here that I will keep forever and always.
