[November 26] London: 'Shopping' on Sloane Street

I was SO spoiled in London. My bus ride to and from the IES Centre where classes were held went through Sloane Street, a street that is a lovely and confusing line of designer stores. I say confusing, because sometimes the things I saw in the displays were just UGLY. But that's 'high fashion' for you. 

One day, I went walking around Sloane Street with a couple of friends and *GASP* actually went inside some of the stores. I was a bit nervous because the shop girls and boys probably could 'tell' that we weren't actually even considering buying anything—and rightly so, despite some really gorgeous dresses and jewelry and shoes and purses that I saw. *drool*? There is always a 'guard' standing by the door and he (or she, but almost always he) would open the door for you... and all of the shop employees were ALL really nice and friendly. 

These were my favorite stores, as in, I found the most things I liked in them:
