Company

Josie was born and raised in Wiarton. Went off to University of Waterloo, and received a degree in Environmental Studies, Geography major. (not what you need to run a dress shop)

Upon graduating she moved back to Wiarton and married Kent Myles.

After a number of part time jobs, including a waitress and substitute teacher, in 1994 Josie was fortunate enough to get her dream job of owning her own clothing store. Making her the fourth generation in her family to have a business on the main street of Wiarton.

In 1999 Josie and her husband Kent bought the building they had previously rented. They did extensive renovations to the inside, but were able to keep the historic feel with the tin ceilings and hardwood floors.

has been working at Josie's for 13 years. She calls herself the life'r. Melissa often joins Josie on buying trips.

joined the store in the spring of '07. She brings with her a love of clothes and the fact she knows almost everyone on the peninsula.

started in the fall of '07. We are delighted to have her smiling face and creative ideas helping us out.

started out as a co-op student, but by Summer was our Saturday & Sunday girl. You will now see her on any given day helping out after school.

as well as being a substitute teacher, we are very lucky to have Patty helping us out at the store every now and then.
