my stuff

I know Uniqlo isn't really a revelation, but I do think they do a better job (at least for guys) than H+M. Here in Beijing, there's a mall with a Muji and a Uniqlo and three floors of food courts (I told you I like to eat a lot). I really can't get over how much better the shopping is here than at home. U.S. retailers take note, pretty please? I dragged my family here and all were pleasantly surprised by the prices at Uniqlo. My sister copped some leggings (you girls like those, don't you?) and I grabbed these two jackets. The real kicker? They were only 13 dollars. 13 bucks for a jacket? I'm sold. Lightweight with a nice slim fit, these are perfect spring/summer jackets. I know summer's almost over, but here in China, it's been around 80-90 degrees everyday. Plus they were 13 dollars. You can never have enough blazers-wear them with denim (maybe those edwins I just bought) or with rolled up trousers and I guarantee girls will swoon. Well maybe not guarantee, but I bet they like it more than a hoody. I could be wrong though...

We like them a lot more than hoodies! Great finds! And I'm so jealous (again ;) that you were somewhere with a Muji and an Uniqlo- sounds too good to be true. Cath and I still have yet to make it to Uniqlo- but it's in the works- probable in NY not HK- hohum. Give us an outfit shot, GJs ;) You are so good at those!
