a fine day out

Uniqlo is having a summer festival, Youngest loves their things and needed clothes for his trip to Japan and his freshman year at college.
Middle had a hankering for some dress shirts, so, off we went.




 No talking on the train.

  
 It's best to listen to music and relax.








 


(Youngest has scored a new phone too - it's a Sony and quite something.) 


 Happily for us, Uniqlo was pretty empty.


 



I say happily as outside it was over 90 and very very crowded.


 

And there were drums. 

We bought a pile of wonderful things (a fabulous Jil Sander jacket for me!) and alterations are free. With sons with 26-inch waists and 32-inch inseams, alterations are necessary. 
Uniqlo's tailors have your pants hemmed in two hours so we went and had some lunch and visited the pharmacy. 


 


Middle has devoted himself to a finer art of shaving and is exploring his options.


 


Brushes and soaps and post-shave balms had to be researched.


 


 I am always happy to spend time in shops like this one.

 


I bought them some lunch, we browsed around and returned to get our shortened pants. 
Middle made his way to a shoot and Youngest and I ran like crazy to make a train. 

There was steak and red wine waiting at home for me.
