We sat down with Jenny, the owner and designer of Two of Hearts asked her about her business. With the way retail is changing towards online, it is even more important to partner with local businesses and cross promote.
Tell me a little bit about your business. What do you make or sell?
Inside Two of Hearts Boutique, you’ll find a unique selection of local and international brands. I am a fashion designer - and I own and operate both the boutique and my beloved in-house label, Cici. I pride myself in supporting local artists. All of our jewelry is handmade by BC artists.

When and why did you start your business?
I've been designing my own clothing label for over 15 years now and opened up a retail boutique firstly on Main street 10 years ago. I found it a bit too much and wanted to focus on a single location in Kitsilano, which has been open for 5 years. It's been great to have a retail location to sell my house brand which is made in Vancouver and at the same time supporting the local artists by carrying their designs in the shop.
