day #5 in Seoul... Spring 2011

we decided today was do-major-damage-to-wallet day.

we got the work stuff out of the way by early afternoon and headed for Hongdae.

4 girls + pockets full of cash + plenty of time + VERY MANY absolutely gorgeous shoe shops/ dress shops/ stationery shops/ accessory shops = MAJOR SHOPPING!!!

:)))

it was madness!

we had a quick, (fairly) late lunch of Tteokbokki and a whole plate full of sinful deep-fried yums from a street hawker right outside Exit 8 of the Hongdae Stn, and then set off down the streets.

in and out the shops we went.

bags. shoes. dresses. bling-blings. bakeries. stationeries...... 

at every other shopfront, we were like, "很美！ 很可爱！！！快点进去！" and the 4 of us would then go into the tiny shops [think: The Lost Boys in Peter Pan doing 'following-the-leader'] and start to look-here-look-there, touch-this-touch-that :p

we walked hours before we realised IT WAS DARK! and WE WERE COLD! and HUNGRY!!

girls. sheesh! when there's shopping, we forget everything else. ha!

it was a VERY fruitful trip to Hongdae :)

another one of my must-go (shopping) places in Seoul.
