Shop after Shop

Dress purchased from Republic. 
 In Kingston, there is a plethora of good shopping places. Just last week, I spent half the day in the Bentall Centre with some friends. I'm quite a fan of the fashion here. I especially love the collars on ladies dresses and tops, so I purchased a dress yesterday with an adorable collar on it. Other current fashions I have noticed are peplum tops, the color maroon, see-through tops, colored tights, and platformed shoes to name a few. Some new name brands I've come across are Super Dry and Jack Wills - quality clothing if you're shopping near London. If you're going to be spending some time in Kingston, I definitely recommend you try out some of the different fashions. I'm not really into fashion normally, but it's a great way to experience a new culture. The fashion choices are actually all very practical considering the amount of rain the people here deal with. 

At the Bentall Centre with my friends last week, we visited unique shops such as Republic, H&M (which is actually a large chain, but not located near my hometown), New Look, Gilly Hicks, Yumi, and Oliver Bonas. It was a great activity for a rainy day! There are even plenty of restaurants located inside the shoppings centre, so you really can spend an entire day there. 

After the Bentall Centre, my friends stopped into Primark to buy some Christmas sweaters. Primark is always a busy shop, but it is a great place to find the latest fashions at the cheapest prices. I especially love buying my sweaters (or jumpers) from here. 

At the end of our shopping, we went to Pizza Hut for a hot meal. I always have friendly service here and  we got free side salads with our meals. It was such a great day, and socializing over a meal is my favorite way to end a day with friends!
