Close to You Fashion Boutique

Our Story


Close To You opened in 1991 as a tiny, 700 SF lingerie store specializing in bra fitting and hard to find sizes in beautiful downtown Parksville, BC, Canada. It is now over 4300 SF of gorgeous fashions, lingerie, footwear, and accessories, as well as an ecommerce store!


Sandy Herle (owner) can often be heard saying "onward and upward" in her never-ending quest to learn and grow, and true to form, Close To You has become not only a complete women’s store - dressing women from head to toe - but a destination store for locals and tourists alike. Sandy has been told, (but is not sure if the rumour is 100% accurate) that her store is the largest Independent Ladies Boutique on Vancouver Island!


Sandy and her wonderful team of staff, air a Facebook Live event every Wednesday at 5.30 pm to 6.00 pm called Wine & Women on Wednesdays. Check out the latest edition here:

(20+) Close To You Boutique | Parksville BC | Facebook

Coming up on April 14th 2023

Joseph Ribkoff Trunk Sale


Just what is a Trunk Show you might ask? Well, let me tell you....

There will be racks and racks of fashions for your viewing. You get to see the same styles I do when I'm ordering but you also get to preview styles I didn't order but maybe should have...lol

Appointments (call 250-248-3781) are recommended but if that doesn't work for you, just drop on by!

This is the perfect time to come by if you have a very special occasion on your horizon...that amazing trip you have put off for the last two years, Mother of the Bride, Mother of the Groom, or what ever...ideal timing for Summer weddings and events!
