Venus Fort
Going shopping and trying Japanese food are always the best remedy to solve my both mental and physical desires. In 2002, my high school mate and I were then backpackers, encountered Venus Fort, while at that time not seeing Yurikamome Line fully completion. 12 years later, it only takes 15 minutes to Venus Fort from Tokyo Big Site by taking monorail. I target Venus outlet (3rd floor) and check Vanessa Bruno, Marni and moussy, very luckily I found bargain apparels and happily checkout. Venus Grand (2nd floor) has Roman fountain and church plaza to take lovely photos. I hang around at Venus Fort until the closing-time song jingles.
Gotemba Premium Outlets
On Friday I decide to relax myself, away from the hustle bustle Tokyo City, I take JR bus to Gotemba Premium Outlets. Located in Fukasawa, the outlet is also where Fujiyama in the neighbourhood. I choose to travel at least 3 hours on transportation, because I bet on chances to take photos of Fuji Mt. while doing shopping. Furthermore, the design of the outlet is American village style, walking between bridges and stores is very fun as well.
Alas Fuji is still hidden behind the clouds, even the sky is clearly blue. Surrounding among Chloé, Dior, Kate Spade, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Prada, Vivienne Westwood, Tsumori Chisato, or even Godiva, though most of the collection apparently too pricy to go crazy buy, I still treat myself a Chloé lambskin cosmetic bag (I would treat it as a long wallet) and a pair of sophisticated stockings by Tsumori Chisato. It is not a super bargain to buy luxurious goods in Japan, but adoring the styles and materials of my new purchase, plus the nice service with tax free, it’s definitely one of my best outlet hunting experiences.
