Cheap & Chic: Uniqlo !

You know Uniqlo don’t you ?

Well, let me introduce you.

The name comes from the words ‘unique’ and ‘clothing’

From one store in Hiroshima, Japan in 1984, Uniqlo have grown to more than 1300 stores in 15 countries. We’re talking all through Asia, London, the USA and Europe.
They design and manufacture every single item although they like “to collaborate with interesting and inspiring people”.

Yes, with such people as style icon Ines de la Fressange ( check it out here !).

The good news?

A new store has just opened in Melbourne  #woohoo.
