Uniqlo

This is one of the bigger (if not the biggest) Uniqlo store around with 2 levels (B3 is for menswear and B2 is for women, and I don’t remember where the kids section is on).
I do not think the clothes are that cheap though some pieces are affordable. It all depends on what you are looking at. They have good options for cold weather wear and I like that they are basic. That means if you miss out on getting your «michelin man» jacket, you can always wait for the next Fall/​Winter collection and it will be available. The fleece jacket is also a good buy especially when it is on sale.
I find myself buying more of the t-​shirts especially those collaborated with designers or artists and maybe cartoon characters. They are pretty comfortable and cute.
For dresses and bottoms, I find the fit a bit strange for me. Either too short or too long or just hang weirdly on my frame.
The heattech range is also very comfortable and does retain heat to keep warm.
I will want to try the Airism range next.

when you have slippers and a shoe horn in the changing room, you know you have a winner ;) Who else does that? lol
Great selection, reminds me of the GAP but better price, for sure they’ve got their marketing act together.
I’m probably a bit more generous since UNIQLO doesn’t ship to Canada from the US…
but amazing value, esp. for men’s undergarments, the V-​necks and thermal wear is terrific…

Great selection of clothing. And very friendly and helpful staff.

Cheap and cheerful, this Japanese mega fashion empire specializes in quirky fashion that won’t break the bank — it may even save you a couple of pennies.
The style is bright and happy, and the occasional collaborations with Japanese designers are something to watch out for.
They do basics like tank tops, pants and all kinds of underwear, socks, leggings, jeggings, all that stuff really well! Can’t think of a better place at this price range for all these necessities, and still be able to choose from hundreds of options.

I love the tee-​shirts they have here. Especially when they’re on discounts as I can grab more than 5 at one shot!
I love the collaboration tees they always have as the designs are quirky and pleasing to the eye. The quality of certain tees are also higher, they have a nicer touch and feel when you wear them. Sizes are aplenty, so no matter what size you are, there’s a tee for you.
Only downside — due to the cheap prices, you might find someone else wearing something similar. But apart from that, there’s nothing to dislike!

I was very disappointed when I stepped into Uniqlo over the weekend because I was apparently one step too late. They launched their bra-​tops and inner wear sale few days back and everybody knows their bra-​tops are the best. The thing is their best-​selling item is not that wallet-​friendly all the time, one tank top can go up to $ 39.90 a piece; so during the sale I must make a trip down to get them at $ 16.
But the sizes and colours left were the unsuitable ones. Their best colours were left with either the largest or the smallest size on the shelves. Everything else in between is GONE!
Uniqlo is one of my favourite brands for its oh-​so-​comfy basics. That said though, the comfy series are not suitable to carry you to work — they look too homely and sleepy. They’ve got the office series, including that crisp white shirt, unfortunately the cutting of their shirts don’t suit me.
Okay, I’m done whining.

Where is the best place for GOOD QUALITY basics?
The answer lies at Uniqlo.
This Japanese brand has solved the problems of many women by offering tube top, tank tops and spaghetti straps with a built in bra. Why is this one of the best ever fashion inventions? Because this means that: A) while travelling, you don’t have to waste space by packing in bras and tops separately. B) when you are going for a run or to the gym, just slip on the tank top and you won’t have to worry about hunting down your sports bra and the like. And lastly C) It’s so damn convenient to just throw on the top and match it with a pair of jeans/​skirt/​shorts… well you get my drift.
In a nutshell, it’s awesome for basics. They also have limited edition patterns built in bra tops. I am also a fan of their boxers… it’s made out of very good and comfortable materials. Their slip on jeggings are also quite awesome. Do keep an eye out for their sale. sometimes their boxers can be 2 for $ 16.90 and their $ 39.90 built in bra tops can be on sale as well. so don’t forget to keep checking. because trust me, once you get that built in bra top, you’ll find just how awesome and convenient it is when you are rushing for time or luggage space.

The Japanese rule this corner of Ion with 2 Stories of Uniqlo and a Daiso underneath.
UNIQLO is an upcoming and new-​style Japanese fashion brand making good casual clothes available for all. Today they launches the latest lines of Tennis Apparel in the US and got djokovic as a brand ambassador. They also regularly create collections together with well known designers like Jil Sander.
Perfect for basics. Good quality, minimalistic design with nice cuts and for a really good price. Socks are cheap and cool design but quality is not that great.

I love Uniqlo! This is my to-​go place for basics like plain t-​shirts, though recently I’ve been succumbing to their collaborations with other brands (currently wearing something from their Lulu Guiness collection). The service staff are without fail friendly, perky even close to their 10pm closing time. How is that possible!
Cheap tip: if you’re looking for things to lounge around the house in, look at the back of the store for their clearance rack. These are either display pieces or slightly-​damaged goods that are being let go of at a snip. I mean, you’re not going to mind that your pyjamas don’t match, are you?
