go shopping in tokyo, kyoto and osaka
What can I say? I can hardly believe that Japan is officially in recession. Just watch the cash registers ringing in the departmental stores in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka and you will agree with me.
The retail culture in Japan is crazy! You can go shopping in every corner in downtown tokyo, kyoto and osaka and you will be swamped by lots of shopping choices and options. The world of beauty, cosmetics and apparel is madness here! I can literally get giddy going shopping in these departmental stores… so much as that I find myself getting tired walking from floor to floor!
I tried getting into H&M earlier this evening but I wasn’t too comfortable with the Sunday crowd and long queues. The only two stores which I frequently pop in are UNIQLO and MUJI, they are affordable and basic, and have simple styles of my desire. But one thing I know, if you plan to go shopping Japan, you better be ready to increase your credit limit on your credit card or bring lots of cash – Japan shopping isn’t cheap at all… not by my standards at least!
One last note – Ginza is a great place to stroll and go shopping for big labels… bring your credit card!
