Good news, Zara lovers: Zara Home is coming to Canada, which means soon you'll be able to bring the Spanish-based retailer's on-trend (and budget-friendly) style to your bedroom, living room and bathroom.
Set to open its first Canadian location at Toronto's Yorkdale Shopping Centre the Zara Home store will feature moderately-priced, fashion-forward housewares as an offshoot to the Zara brand.
So what exactly does the ubiquitous clothing chain offer for home décor? Stylish bedding, dinnerware, mirrors, vases, candles, pillows, drapes, rugs, towels, stationary (to name a few!) with all items ranging from $2 for a napkin to $500 for a cowhide rug.
Currrently, Zara Home isn't even available in the U.S., though they do have an online store -- that's right, Canadians get first dibs.
The Yorkdale Shopping Centre also announced on Monday 12 other brands that will call Yorkdale home in 2013, including All Saints, David Yurman, John Varvatos, Mulberry and even LEGO.
More details to come! In the meantime, take a peek at some other big brands making their way to Canada below:

Target(06 of06)
Open Image ModalThe arrival of Target to Canada in 2013 is easily the most hotly-anticipated retail arrival since Walmart came north of the border in 1994. The discount retailer is planning more than 100 stores across the country, having taken over a significant number of Zellers locations. But the store is currently engaged in a labour dispute, as it tries to keep former Zellers employees from unionizing in the new stores. (credit:CP)
