Category : Uncategorized

Paris welcomes Uniqlo, the Japaneese retailer known for selling high quality basic clothing at low prices are already wooing Parisians from another foreign retailer, The Gap.

Located a stones throw away from other high street retailers such as Zara, H&M and Mango. The Opera area of Paris is a shopping Mecca with traditional French department stores such as Galeries Lafayette and Printemp.

Their metro ads promise introductory prices like €9.90 for “Japaneese quality” jeans and €39.90 for cashmere sweater.

Not bad eh? I for one love what Uniqlo has been doing in the retail industy – quality at affordable prices equals sucess and returning shoppers!

H&M FALL 2009 photos- leaked!

Category : bits and pieces






H&M fall 2009 looks very grunge, messy but like a Edward Scissorshand dream! 

Two color tones black and cream. 
 Some of its seems very futuristic – I don’t know how well these will sell in the stores. I’m fairly adventurous fashion-wise but I cant do the grunge or messy look – I just come off looking homeless. 
Yea, really. 
Don’t laugh – I cant do that ” hey I just got out of bed and I look great, gimma a cigarette” look

Where will I be shopping next fall? – praying I get my private sales invites because I’ll be stacking up! :)
