Emporio U

What a cool find! It’s tucked away on High Street so if you’re not actively looking around I’m sure you would miss the sign pointing down the dingy stairs. I’m so glad I noticed it because I was pretty stoked with what I found in this little dungeon. As I was going down I felt like I was sneaking into somewhere I wasn’t supposed to be. The store really does look like nothing from outside, I was half expecting to round the corner and find Dumbledore practicing some spells in some secret wizard society. I didn’t find Dumbledore (sigh). But I did find lots of racks of second hand designer clothes. I saw some really heinous things and some pretty cool things. Some of the shoes were extremely cool and «so in right now» but unfortunately none were in my midget feet size. As with all second hand shops — you need time to sift if you want to stumble across something really worthwhile. The prices varied a lot and that made me question some of the «designer pieces». I guess you just need to be on your A game when searching through the racks. No one wants to be ripped off paying hundreds of dollars for a second hand fake. The weird foreign music made for a very interesting vibe too.
