About Tigerlily Clothing
Shopping on foot works better downtown than almost anywhere else in Kelowna, and Bernard Avenue is the reason. The street runs from the highway down toward Okanagan Lake, gathering restaurants, offices and storefronts as it goes, and it finishes at the waterfront parks. Tigerlily Clothing occupies 543 Bernard Avenue, in the thick of that walkable stretch rather than out on one of the highway strips.
Independent clothing shops live and die by turnover, which is both the appeal and the catch. Stock arrives in small runs, sizes go quickly, and the thing you saw last month may well be long gone. That makes a look at tigerlilyclothing.ca worthwhile before you make a special trip in from Rutland or the Mission. It also makes it worth asking whether a shop will hold something for you, bring in a different size, or let you know when a line comes back through. People working a small room see everything that passes across the floor and can usually tell you what is arriving next.
Downtown parking is metered and gets tight through the summer, when visitors fill the waterfront and traffic along Bernard slows to a crawl. Coming midweek, or early in the day, changes the experience considerably. Winter is the opposite here: short, grey and quiet, with easy curb space and room to browse without anyone waiting behind you. Either way the block rewards being treated as a walking destination, because the shops on either side and the parks at the bottom of the hill are part of what makes the trip worth making.

Where to shop in Kelowna: three centres and a market
