^ I agree! I wish I could help but I'm new to the city.
I too am looking for a fairly decent clothing store that's in Toronto that is OK for a 'student budget'
I love H&M (@ the Eaton's Centre) but am looking for small clothing stores that aren't huge franchises (like Blue Notes, American Eagle, Garage, etc).
I'm going to go exploring on Yonge Street and around downtown, hopefully I'll find a REALLY good store. If I do, I'll post it here for sure
