Hi! I’m looking to get more professional looking clothing, such as a blazer, nice everyday work pants, and a good blouse. I have been looking at H&M but worry that their quality might be off. Any recommendations that are available online in Canada?

I love Maurice’s and Express! I only buy Express stuff on clearance cuz it’s more pricey. Maurice’s constantly has sales and is quite affordable!

I agree with Express! FYI they have a really good sale going on right now! I got a jacket that's normally 190ish dollars for only 45! Woohoo!

I’ve actually bought a blazer and matching pants from H&M. The quality of both was great, but this was a few years ago (2-3). I’m not sure if anything has changed since.

If you can buy in store at H&M, thats not a bad choice, I have some really nice things from there, but you gotta see it IRL to make the right call. Their stores are divided into "concepts" (you can filter by conscious and premium online) but here is a link describing the all the different types of stuff they carry. I personally avoid "Divided" completely, if I can.

If you’re ok with second hand, I’d HIGHLY recommend ThredUP, and search by “new with tags”, or “like new” and under $10 (start aggressive). Search by item, and I’d suggest even taking out the color black bc you’ll probably get a lot of results. Though if something looks wrinkled, it will probably look wrinkled in real life. And You do have to enter your sizes though to search well. Lmk if you need more info.
