[News]Ayu shops till her heart's content in Taiwan
 
濱崎步抵台第二天,提前到訪的原因明朗化,步姊想把握機會好好血拚,昨天下午2時多起床後,濱崎步在8位保 全和30位工作人員包圍護送下步出飯店,一路從中山北路的LV血拚到101大樓名品樓層。

熱愛LV的濱崎步,血拚第一站就親自走到晶華酒店旁的LV,據當時店內其他客人表示,濱崎步一行人數眾多, 加上大批媒體歌迷跟隨,入內時雖有些混亂,但濱崎步並未要求店方封店,逕自走向二樓女裝區,似乎已經有鎖定 好的目標,果然濱崎步仔細翻看各款春裝短外套,還親自認真詢問店員問題,最後買了兩件白色和淡藍色的短外套 ,總價約15萬台幣。

隨後,濱崎步一行搭車轉往101大樓,登上101觀景台稍微看了一下,濱崎步就開始進入血拚主題,連逛了G UCCI、Miu Miu、ES-CADA、D&G等名牌店,身材嬌小的她穿34號,但在ESCADA店內卻買了40號的女裝外套,令人好奇 她是為誰買禮物?

Miu Miu店員眼見偶像旋風般來到店內,隨即清場,擋掉一干子尾隨的媒體,讓她單獨在店裡待了半小時,看起來步 姊的品味很合今年春夏Miu Miu的金銀風,拉拉雜雜買了不少金銀色的配件。她尤其愛Bling Bling,幾乎只要是當季金和銀色的飾品都成了她的戰利品。

Miu Miu今年春夏主攻,以高校天后琳賽蘿涵為全球廣告的銀色包款是濱崎步的首選,賣相奇佳,包身全銀且底部呈 圓形,可背、可提的軟袋,有「元寶包」暱稱,售價48000元。

此外,濱崎步對其他Miu Miu的飾品也很有興趣。比如,她一口氣把店內每支4000元的各種顏色漆亮皮髮箍全包了;金、銀和雙色拼 接的三條寬版腰帶,加起來25000元也沒放過,此外,Miu Miu春夏的水晶鎬鑲絲緞的平底鞋,濱崎步也是三雙一起買,總計約花了十來萬元。

步姊掃貨,也有店家錯失商機,GUCCI就直呼可惜,因為聽說濱崎步上次逛台北麗晶精品,蜻蜓點水就破了百 萬,這回台北101的GUCCI皮件大店雖然嚴陣以待,卻偏偏因為濱崎步想買衣服而和大金主擦身而過,把機 會拱手讓給了Miu Miu。



Now obviously we know why Ayumi arrives Taiwan earlier by a day: To grab the golden opportunity to shop till her drop.

Under the intense protection of eight security guards and 30 staffs, Ayumi left her hotel at around 2 p.m. and began her shopping spree from North Zhong Shan Road's LV boutique all the way to Taipei 101 tower.

Due to her love for LV, Ayumi immediately enters the LV store beside the Grand Formosa Regent Hotel.According to the customers inside the store, Ayumi had brought a lot of people with her plus the following media and fans, caused a mini chaos at the entrance of the store. However she did request for a lock-down but instead went on shopping on her own at the 2nd floor, which is the Ladie's department. It seems that she had a few items on her mind.

Indeed, she was later seen looking carefully at a few Spring-style short coats and even asked some questions to the staffs of the department floor.Finally she purchased two short coats which is white and light blue color respectively.Both costed her 150,000 New Taiwan Dollars.

After that, the group took their transport to Taipei 101 tower and after sight-seeing around a bit at the viewing floor of the world's tallest tower, it's time for more shopping! She toured around Gucci, Miu-Miu, Escada and D&G boutiques, the petite singer's size was 34, but she bought size 40 coats at Escada, so for who is it anyway?

On seeing the Japanese idol arriving at their doorstep, the staffs of Miu Miu immediately blocked access to the following media and fans and let Ayumi stayed inside the store for half an hour. It seems that Ayumi's taste fit nicely with Miu Miu's gold and silvers for Spring/Summer season this year and thus she bagged a lot of accessories. She loves Bling Bling the most and these had became hers, as long as it's gold or silver.

The main course of Miu MIu this year was the silver handbag advertised by Lindsay Lohan which is also the main target of Ayumi Hamasaki, The all-versatile round-bottom handbag can be slinged or taken by its handles and it was nicknamed the "Chinese Tael Handbag" which priced at NTD 48000.

Besides that, Ayu also had a lot of interest at other lines of accesories by Miu Miu. For instance she swept away all available colors of leather headbands priced at NTD4000 each.Gold, silver and dual colored wide leather waist belts which cost NTD 25000 altogether, lastly the Crystal-ead lace sandals, she got three of that too and that costed her for a further NTD100,000.

But there were some people whom missed the chance of earning Ayu's money. Gucci, for instance, Taipei 101's Gucci didn't earn any sales from the Japanese Songstress because she just wanted to buy clothes instead of leather accessories even though they had prepared for her arrival. Miu Miu stole the limelight from all the designer's stores.

evolution7931 24th March 2007 12:00 AM

It's not too much.. if she makes 1 million+ per year, $10 000 is well enough for one day's shopping

Choyan 24th March 2007 12:47 AM

AH~ Miu Miu~ XD it's a good brand XD I like that one XP
Go ayu! lol~

Eigakan 24th March 2007 02:27 AM

that's so fun

LacusClyne 24th March 2007 02:32 AM

it's good that she comes early to shop, rather then waiting till the concert is cutting close. then, she will have no time to shop.

Chandrachan 24th March 2007 02:38 AM

wow Ayu's so lucky!! If only I was super rich like Ayu!!
Arigatou for the article and translation!!

capsule 24th March 2007 03:20 AM

Wow!. She sure likes to spend all of her money on shopping every single luxurious things. Sometimes, I wonder when will her money dry out? I guess all the millions she earned years before are still in her account.

haruki 24th March 2007 03:49 AM

i think this is quite expectable coz she is also spending THOUSANDS of dollars on training her dogs to toilet.

Kodayumi 24th March 2007 04:45 AM

Gogo rich girl :D

ruixiong89 24th March 2007 05:58 AM

Not that I mind though. :D

She's SO RICH! I hope I had that much money as her.

yatsuda 24th March 2007 07:17 AM
