Sattva is such a beautiful shop filled with plenty of Canadian goodness and sustainable brands. I'm currently in love with my cozy emerald cardigan and ever grateful to the team who always help to suggest products that would complete the look. Sattva's stylists even got me wearing white sneakers long before I gave them a thought and loved them so much i bought a second pair. I have come to fully trust their selection, guidance in fit and also know each piece is worth every penny.

I have shopped many times at Sattva both online and in person. The staff I have encountered have always been friendly, informative, and helpful which goes a long way for someone like me who needs some fashion guidance. Their brands are great and Im always impressed with their selection of Canadian and eco-conscious designers. Online orders have been expedient and I would highly recommend this shop overall.

Didn't have a great experience with the staff here today. Maybe she was just having a bad day, but it was like I was a bother to her (the one staff who tended to me) being there. I love the sneakers I was gifted from there, but I don't think I'll be going back... the atmosphere wasn't great.
