Lola Home and Apparel - I have always loved the store but I found it was simply too small. Now, Lola has a new home and it’s pretty darn sweet. With 4 times larger space, they can now properly show all their amazing product, including an entire section dedicated to kids, ladies apparel and bath and home.

Besides being the destination for Burberry infant apparel, Lola also showcases collections by local designers, Carlie Wong and Jason Matlo along with other labels hailing from Paris and Denmark. Since the expansion, you can now consider this Crosstown store as your one-stop-shop “boutique” store.

If you’re on the hunt for something special you’ll most likely find at Lola’s. Most the labels in the store are unique to them only and this is most refreshing, coming from a Vancouver shopping scene point of view. Some of the things that caught my eye:

A line called Rutzou, based out of Denmark. I fell in love with their dresses.

Home and personal fragrances by Paris perfumer Diptyque.

Last but not least, handbag line Meli Melo.
