There’s United Colors of Benetton, which isn’t too preppy but comfortable, and Zara (kind of on the expensive side, but very good clothes). I’m not sure whether it’s still around, but there was this store called Madonna (not named after the singer) that was really cheap and offered comfy, cute clothes. Jackpot was another store that had cool clothes (sort of like the store Charlotte Russe) for a reasonable price. S. Oliver and Orsay both had some plain shirts (which were really cheap) along with other cute clothes. All of these stores are about the same price as AE and Hollister, but you pay more for less when you switch US dollars to Euros.

Sehr Erfreut TokyoXHotel

Sehr Gut!!

wow… i saw this video and not many germans wore uniform for school. I think if you wear the same clothes as they tell you it’ll be fine. anyway it’ll be good for them to know where you come from i’m sure they’ll be pleased to know where you’re from!!

Have fun in Deutschland!!
