A quick look at Mong Kok

Mong Kok isn't all about Tung Choi Street, Ladies Market. If you take the time to adventure a little bit you'll find a huge array of wonderful malls, alot of them discreetly advertised and hidden behind the bustle of street food stalls. Ladies Market eats up all the attention but I highly recommend you take a wonder and find a mall, any mall, and let yourself be excited by its contents. I discovered one called 'Chic' that catered for guys with tastes for tshirts, ties and waistcoats. After leaving there I walked around a bit more and spotted these two and followed them into the King Wah Centre.

I love tshirts with random phrases and Hong Kong are never short of these.

Inside King Wah Centre I found these:

I appologise to these people who I confused greatly by asking to take their photo and I technically didn't ask permission to post their faces on a website but I hope they don't mind since I am saying how great their style is!

If you do venture to King Wah Centre do not leave without visiting 'Double Step'. The clothes were addictively beautiful and the shoes androgynously cute:

There were two parts to the shop, one directly above the other so visit both to make sure you don't miss anything.

man, i am so glad you're doing this. i'm sick of reading about how hk women only dress in designer clothes and carry around designer purses. yeah, sure.. those women exist, but they're seriously ignoring the larger and significantly cooler percentage of the population.
