Yeoju Premium Outlets

Yesterday I went to the Premium Outlets in Yeoju to see if I could find some jeans.  As most of you know I had lost about 30 pounds (since February) before leaving for Korea.  Well in my first month I lost another 10 pounds, which is great but the limited number of jeans I brought no longer fit me so I have been relegated to wearing dresses and skirts.  Needless to day, when I got my first paycheck I decided to go shopping for pants.  This outlet is awesome (http://www.premiumoutlets.co.kr/eng/01_centers/main_yeoju.asp), with all sorts of high end brands and brands that are hard to find anywhere else in Korea.  I mean Gap and Banana Republic only have 2 stores in all of Korea.  However, I am still considered big in Korea (a size 8), so finding jeans was not fun.  I found some really awesome jeans at Guess but they did not have my size (the size up and a size down but not my size!).  :(  Oh well.  After about an hour of looking throughout different shops, I gave up.  The person I was with wanted to go to the other "less expensive" outlets across the street because he wanted to get some Lotteria (which is a fast food burger chain from Japan: but the Koreans think is theirs: No idea!?).  The reason these stores are considered "less expensive" is because 1. they are and 2. they are all Korean brands and stores.  So I thought why the heck not.  In my first shop I found some jeans and tried them on, they were great!  Weird how American brands didn't fit or were wrong sizing but I go into a Korean store and bam I am done.  I was so happy!  I decided to get two pairs of pants and this really cute sweater.  The biggest thing, though, is I can finally wear pants to work and half of my wardrobe!!!  So excited!
