I’m Gonna Post About Miniso Perfumes Tomorrow Because I Hang Out There Waiting for Someone To Hire Me When I Visit California

So I live in the epicenter of the Universe. New York. Yeah, you can’t convince me otherwise because I am New York proud and I am convinced the East Coast is the only place on the planet that matters.

I’m kidding obviously but I was born, bred, and do live in New York and we have a lot of stores, restaurants, places to go, places to be, etc…etc…etc…. It’s not a great chore to find what you’re looking for in New York. It’s fascinating to me when someone tells me, “Well, I live an hour from Sephora!” and here I am living where Sephora is on every other corner. So yeah, I’m just sort of making a point that we don’t exactly have a lack of choices over here. I’ve been to many different places, many different cities, within the US, Asia, and Europe and finding what I want has never been an issue but it’s also because I tend to go to the more popular cities like Paris or Seattle or Tokyo…etc…etc….If you visit bigger cities chances are you’ll be presented with a huge of array of popular stores. I try to avoid shopping when I go on vacation because it can be ridiculous to spend time in some beautiful place only to be hopping around from store to store. You wanna see the sights, enjoy the local cuisine, what you don’t wanna do is shop for stuff you don’t need. But it can draw you in especially when it’s something you can’t technically get back home (When I visited Taiwan a few years ago I hauled so many facial masks I had to buy a suitcase to stash them in! You probably remember I went on a review rampage with them a few years ago!).

Interestingly enough we don’t have a lot of cool stuff that the West Coast does. Watermelon with Tajin, great beaches, Elote in a cup, donuts the size of your head, Jack in the Box, Disneyland, need I go on? We’re obviously slackers in New York!

I haven’t been to California since the Pandemic started and as you know my boyfriend travels back and fourth often for work and I would make the trip with him a lot when COVID wasn’t ruining lives on the daily. One of my biggest joys when visiting was taking really long strolls down the aisles of Daiso (I’m sorry New York but California does Daiso better!) and most important of all going to Miniso. Miniso totally makes me happy and yeah, it’s impossible to find one here in New York. Every single Miniso store I know of within the USA is located in the beautiful, sunny state of California.

Miniso is like a low calorie Daiso. They sell a bunch of different things like housewares, tech for your phone, little fashion accessories and even beauty and fragrance!

TOMORROW WE POST ABOUT MINISO PERFUMES! I went out for my power walk this morning and I wore a little of the new Dolly Perfume and I finally figured out what it reminds me of! A Miniso Perfume! Miniso sells all sorts of little cheap AF fragrances (like $10 bucks or less) that I obsess, collect, and guard like I paid $300+ a bottle for them!

Tonight I’ll be sorting through them as I must see if I can find that Dolly Parton dupe!

But for now the original Dolly Parton Perfume is available on hsn.com! Totally worth a haul! It smells lovely!
