Secrets From Your Sister is celebrating its 10th anniversary in North Toronto. The boutique specializes in bra fittings and provides a wide array of bras that are comfortable and accommodating to the body’s needs. “Bra fitting is very tricky, and having someone there who understands the product is essential,” says owner Jennifer Klein. The store is located at 2501 Yonge St. near Eglinton Avenue. Call 416-482-8007 for more information.

Ace Boutique is marking its first year in the neighbourhood. This women’s clothing store carries a wide variety of casual and athletic clothing by the Canadian designer Andrea Watley.

Integra Health & Wellness Clinic, owned by naturopathic doctor John Girgis, has just opened in the neighbourhood.

My Morning Muffin
is a new business in our neighbourhood. Owned by Sarah Roe, who operates the bakery out of her Glenview Avenue home, it provides gourmet muffins delivered right to customers’ doors. “The idea is that it is a weekend breakfast treat to enjoy while reading the paper without having to leave home,” she explains. Among her most popular recipes are California granola, mascarpone, and fig and pumpkin streusel muffins. For more information, call 416-732-2051.

Simon Says, owned by Tina Gray, now carries kids’ clothing up to size 12. The clothing shop offers a wide selection of designer label fashions by brands like Glub, Ella Moss and Lucky Wang. “Simon Says is such a happy little place,” says Gray. “Kids love to see the fish in our saltwater aquarium. They love that we have a colouring station and a bank of TVs with movies playing and that we give them stickers and treats while their moms shop.” Call 416- 482-8013, or stop in at 635 Mount Pleasant Rd. near Eglinton Avenue for more information.

Candle Emporium has been a fixture in Yorkville since 1990.

This dynamic duo sells hand- crafted candles, ranging from the tiniest to the largest you’ve ever seen. Each is made from natural ingredients, such as beeswax and soy. For details, visit 99 Yorkville Ave., or call 416-961-7334.
