I'll be leaving Bucheon soon. This evening, I have purchased 3 smart fred perry-type shirts (without the awful perry logo) for summer.

They are purple, light blue, and darker blue.

I will wear them at work. I think the total cost was less than 30,000 won.

I find homeplus has nice, simple, stylish looking clothes, which are cheap and good quality.

I will miss homeplus when I change school. Laughing

Why do you care about how you look if you don't like interacting with other people? I mean to say that you probably should care less about how you look. It doesn't matter since you clearly aren't out to meet people. Generally, people care about how they look because of the way other people perceive them. You claim to be indifferent .....

If you mean what you say, you must be pretty shallow.

Do I do anything for show? No.

I like to look good. Have you heard of self-respect?!! Cool

I really feel happy the shirts look good, are inexpensive, and I have a 'new range' of clothing for this summer. Laughing

So, you are dressing to inflate your own ego? I would think that you would be confident enough regardless of what you are wearing. Personally, I am the same person weather I am wearing a suit or a pair boxers with socks!

By the way, I dress for comfort and could care less about how I look. What do I know ... I'm married!

Why does this poster think we need to know this? Maybe he should have stayed married then he could tell someone who cared.

Self-respect is not the same as inflating an ego. Please learn to read.

sinfulsorry - You obviously care enough to stalk my threads. Wink

Self respect has very little to do with wearing cheap home plus shirts in my humble opinion.

The point is you can't tell they are inexpensive, and they look rather good. Laughing

Why did you choose those particular colours?

They had around 5 colours. The orange and pink looked girly and sadly, the green shirt in my size was out of stock.

It's warm today again. Laughing

Could you please tell us more about the shirts and the situational characteristics of the particular Homeplus that you went to.

I want to know where the shirts were made. And I want to know the exact details of the fabric composition. And how did the store staff treat you? Did they smile? What were they wearing? Was the floor clean?

I want to know. I need to know.

OP, you must be slim. Most foreigners can't fit into clothes "off the rack" at Korean Department Stores. Wink

bliss - I am immature but I can tell when I am being made fun of. I cannot stand it when people make fun of me, that's because I am very clever and savvy when it comes to day to day living.

I cannot remember the answers to your questions, but I hope you can participate in one of my future threads. The title of it will be something like 'The local pharmacy was closed when I wanted it to be open'. Laughing

I fitted into size 100 and 105. But I prefer shirts to fit loosely, so I bought size 110.
