★★★★★   MITSUI OUTLET PARK Hokurikuoyabe

It's the second biggest store for its number of branches and there are various shops within. Because it was the opening sale, most shops offered 50% off. All the items including bags, clothes and shoes at EARTH were sold at 2,000yen, and I bought them at very reasonable price. It seemed to have many Summer items but there were also plenty of items that we could use all year around. I was pleased as being a student. I had been to RYUO outlet and Toki outlet but the items looked slightly different from this store. The colours seemed to be dull. There were many Black, White and Beige, and not many clothes in other colours. I thought that they should sell different colours like Red or Orange as it was in Summer. The best shop in OYABE OUTLET MALL I thought was CECIL McBEE. Because it was the complex shop with ANK ROUGE. ANK ROUGE was a girlie shop and its items looked cute. I was looking for a shirt and bought a blouse with sailor collar. It came with a bow tie and the style was very close to what I wanted. The price was reduced to nearly half and this reduction made my mind up to buy it. It was nice that I could get what I wanted and I want to go there again.

Although I had never been there, the shop was easy to go in as it had a lovely, gentle atmosphere.
There were fashionable mannequins to give us some co-ordination ideas and the items were well placed for easy viewing, it was easy to shop. Recommended for window shopping, too.
I bought a frilly skirt last time round and a shop assistant explained about the item when I was trying it on. She also gave me some polite advice on co-ordination. It was very nice and it had an atmosphere I could enjoy shopping.

I had been keen to the brand, ANK. Although I don't normally wear girlie frills or floral patterns, I always had some desire in mind to wear them. I decided to go in despite I nearly gave up as I thought they wouldn't suit me. Then I found that the shop assistants were very nice. They didn't stick with customers or didn't have any threatening aura to force us buying, not like other gal shops. The staff suggested several coordination ideas that suited me within my budget. I'm no longer scared of wearing those girlie clothes that I tended to avoid before. I want to buy there again when I go to ANK. It's a quite long way from my home but I appreciate the wonderful customer service that makes me feel like going again.
