New cloths @ UniQlo


Sampai je Jepun masa tu musim panas. So tak de lah sangat nak membeli baju baru. Tapi disebabkan org Jepun ni suka berfesyen.. so ikut je lah foster family gi shopping baju utk anak dia. Kedai pakaian yang pertama aku pergi ialah UniQlo. Em..menarik gak design pakaiannya and harga pun not bad. Foster family kata kalo nak beli pakai kat UniQlo ni datang hujung minggu coz normally on weekend and public holiday they give some discount. That True !!! the price getting lower than weekdays. Untuk pakaian yang dah nak abis season pulak biasanya akan jadi separuh harga. And biasanya awal2 season tu gi la survey2 baju yang berkenan di hati and bila end of the season come back and it time for shopping....
