Why...

...do they display items at the store window if they have no intention of selling them?

After having brunch with my husband and my little boy, we were on our way back to the car when two pairs of shoes caught my eye. Two shops, one beside the other, had really nice pair of sandals on display. I went inside the first store to see if they have the nice wedge strappy sandals in my size. I was informed that they don't have any stock because they weren't for sale. Disappointed, I went into the next store beside it. This time, I wanted to check out the nice pair of black-heeled shoes. Again, the SA told me that it is only for the mannequins. Ganda!

It seems that I wasn't meant to get any pair of shoes today. I hope this doesn't start a trend. I used to have good luck with shoes.

If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...
