What Dreams Are Made Of // Myeongdong Shopping, Seoul

24 April 2012






There's a small boutique in Seoul that's like stepping into a fashion heaven. The walls and floor are white but they have rainbow after rainbow made up of clutch bags, totes, scarves and pumps. There's table beside table of all the arm candy you could ever dream of. Accessories on every wall. Rail upon rail of pan collars, lace dresses, floaty maxis, billowing chiffon and tailored blazers....all colour coded! This is what my dreams are made of. 

Needless to say, every time I enter this store, I'm overwhelmed. 

I want everything and can settle on nothing. 

Very occasionally, I'll have long enough to make up my mind, most often though I have to settle on a little something to tide me over until next time. This weekend was sadly the latter, so I departed from my little heaven with only a little addition for my summer stacks, a fuchsia and gold glass beaded bracelet.

Nails - OPI 'Shorts Story'. Accent - Deborah Lippmann 'Happy Birthday'
It'll serve as a token reminder that I must return soon when time will allow everything the attention it deserves.

If you'd like to stop by this store yourself, it's located in Myeongdong, a few doors up the street from F21. 

One day I'd like to own that perfect rainbow of clutch bags. What fashion dreams do you have?

  1. That's the coolest store!So colorful and easy to fall in love with. Are things expensive there?

    I love that fuchsia bracelet by the way :) Good choice!

  2. Actually it's not particularly expensive, but sadly it's not cheap enough to just buy everything I like either! It'd need to be dirt cheap then mind you, there's always so much I love in there!!

    1. It is! Sadly I'm too tall and although not fat in the normal world, too fat by asian standards to fit in the clothes here :(
