All merchandises have been selected by shop owner Miao (middle) based on their “cuteness”, “coolness” and “convenience” from a woman’s point of view.
Miao herself is surprised by not only the number of female customers but also the number of male customers and their support over the first month since the store’s opening.
Miao wishes to surprise and touch the hearts of Japanese customers as well as people living in Australia with these Japanese goods that are excellent in both design and usefulness.
