10 Canadian Boutiques with the Most Adorable Jewelry?

In the saturated market of independent fashion retailers, it can be difficult to stand out. But that’s why we love indie boutiques so much. Their distinct and niche focus on a specific niche has allowed them to thrive in a sea of fast-fashion retailers and online marketplaces. Below is a list of some of our favorite Canadian boutiques with the cutest jewelry that they sell. Candy and Candy is a Toronto-based boutique specializing in sweet and sour candy-inspired clothing and accessories for women, men and kids. With their new tagline “Where Sugar Meets Punk”, you’re sure to find something that tickles your taste buds (and not just because everything is covered in sprinkles).

What to buy from Candy and Candy
While the majority of the products on their website are clothing and accessories, Candy and Candy also sells a small selection of jewelry.

Made from faux fur, this choker can be worn when you’re wrapping presents or baking cookies. The choker is available in black and white, and can be purchased for $45 CAD.

Dohnny’s Organics
Dohnny’s Organics is a Canadian brand that specializes in environmentally friendly t-shirts. Their t-shirts are made with organic cotton, and are printed with water-soluble inks that break down and dissolve in water after a certain amount of time. This means that they are safe for the environment and safe for those who work on the t-shirts at the factory. These t-shirts are the perfect gift for your best friend, or even better, yourself! They’re available in a variety of designs, and can be purchased for $50 CAD.

L Brands: The Lab and The Labels

On Environmentally-Friendly Fashion
One of the major issues surrounding conventional clothing production is the impact that it has on the environment. Not only are dyeing processes harmful to the environment, but they are also extremely toxic. The good news is that there are many alternative dyes available, including natural dyes. Natural dyes are a great alternative to synthetic dyes because they are often made with natural and renewable resources. While not all clothing brands are eco-friendly, some designers are starting to make a concerted effort to be more environmentally aware.

Reformation
Reformation is an online and brick-and-mortar boutique that sells handcrafted and vintage-inspired clothing and accessories for women. Their entire product line is made with sustainable materials, including organic cotton, recycled polyester and reclaimed wood. Their website also has a sustainable shopping feature, where customers can buy used pieces from other customers. Used clothing is a great alternative to conventional clothing production because it is much less harmful for the environment. Used clothing is also much cheaper than buying new pieces, making it a great option for those who are on a budget.

Reaching Out Society
Reaching Out Society is an online boutique that sells high-quality jewelry made from ethically sourced materials. Their website includes a breakdown of the materials and their sourcing, so that you know exactly what you’re buying. Their pieces range from $40–$150 CAD.

Summink & Co.
