Miu Miu

Came in to check out their shoes but they sadly did not have my size. Still cool tho because there’s not really a store around me where I can try things on before committing or at least physically see it so this was different. They were nice enough to let me know that I can bring my Miu Mius into any Prada store to fix as I mentioned I scuffed my heel a bit during my LA trip.
My aunt loved her purchase so one of us left happy.
Salespeople are not pushy but they do hover a bit.

I walked in here knowing exactly what I wanted to get. A beautiful charm bracelet with a gold heart and the words «Miu Miu» engraved in it. Something about that bracelet… made me tingle with excitement. I’m a very quick shopper so I walked in pointed it out and with no wait it was in the bag.
When it was time to pay I whipped out my card but because Wells Fargo thinks my card was stolen they placed a hold on my debit account (I don’t use credit cards) until I could confirm my shopping spree. I really do like them for that. Anyways the people at Miu Miu were really patient and I didn’t feel like they were judging me!
The hold was removed and my purchase was made! I’m so happy with my purchase and I feel like it’s only the beginning of a beautiful friendship!
Next time I’m going to get a pair of shoes! I’ll post pics: D

This isn’t really my kind of store but I came in here with my cousins when they were visiting from out of town. The store is very spacious and it’s all about the products. They have chairs for the guys to sit on while the ladies shop. They have a lot of staff. I think I saw 6 – 8 people and they mostly just stood in the front by the entrance.
I think the products here have too much bling bling on them. The bags were like this shiny plastic material and the colors are really bright. It’s totally not my style but I wanted to be a good sport since my cousins don’t visit often. Maybe someday when I marry a rich guy I could come in here again and have a completely different opinion about the products.

Guess when you work In those stores, you can be a snob
The sales people stand around and do not greeting you’re look at you-​oh, you have to have a customer from Japan. What I was wearing was not rich enough. Ha ha…
Nice things…

one of my fave stores, their stuff is super cute the sale’s reps are ok, sometimes they are helpful sometimes they just ignore you, but no matter to me because I just get lost in this store.

Miu Miu fever! I try not to go shopping much, while the most I ever spend on, is electronics (i’m such a dude). I was forced to get a new wallet after I had mine stolen!
There is so much to choose from of ilke, everything that made my quick wallet shop turn into almost an hour of finding «that one». I’m glad the employee was so patient with me.

Went back to the store because I wanted to buy a wallet I saw in a magazine. The store still has VERY HORRIBLE customer service towards non-​tourist. I really think all the workers need to get some kind of training or get fired because they’re RUDE!!!

Honestly, i have never been treated so rudely!!! The workers are all FOB japanese maybe one philipino. When i walked in they looked at me and snobbed me no assistance at all. I saw two of the workers point at a younger girl who also walked in, and laughed at her. I sat down while my friend was looking around and one of the workers told me very rudely to move to the seats in the back!!! what a biotch. The only nice worker in there was the manager, she needs to get new workers! buy online save your time. if i could give them no stars i would.

Just one question:
Why does it smell like a port-​a-​potty?

Miu Miu is a high end boutique geared toward a younger, very upscale demographic, with the designs and concepts of Miuccia Prada, yes, of the billionaire Prada family of luxury goods.
This store in Honolulu opened less than a year ago in Ala Moana, to much fanfare, as there was a special limited edition bag (only 50 made) designed just for the opening, sold out the first day, and now commands $ 15,000 each on the secondary market. Paris Hilton has one, so does Hawaiian born Japanese star Yuna Ito.
Miu Miu has stores in all the global high end fashion locations, including Milano, Firenze, Roma, New York, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, London, Melbourne, Tokyo, Nagoya, Kobe, Fukuoka, Paris, Singapore, Hong Kong, Boston, Kuwait, Taipei, and Shenzen and soon in Orange County’s South Coast Plaza.
Here in Ala Moana, their merchandise is very much geared toward the petite Asian tourists, especially the Japanese, which is probably at least 50% of the tourists that come to Hawaii.
The designs have a lot of sparkle and faux gemstones on the bags, lots of airy chiffon clothes that are very Japanese in esthetics, and nothing but 5″ and 6″ high overly strappy, size 5 shoes and boots on display. A mundane women’s tan leather coin purse is $ 300. A wallet, $ 540.
Ever wonder how these hords of young Japanese female tourists come over to America, seeking high end European fashions, can afford it?
Truth is, many Japanese women in their 20’s still live at home with their parents, and work as OLs (office ladies) or other such jobs before they marry (which most then concentrate on raising a family and quit work). They use the money they make not on rent and cars like most American girls that age, but on themselves with the latest fashions and meeting their friends for fancy dinners and desserts.
Unlike here, in Japan, most OL’s wear uniforms at work, and most probably wore uniforms throughout school, so expressing their individuality (as long as it follows the group and latest trend!) is a release of trying to fit in.
The Japanese are obsessed by designer names, and name recognition, superb craftsmanship, and quality goods are a hallmark of Japanese culture for centuries, from kimonos, to ceramics, to swords.
Also, it is Japanese custom that when you go on vacation, you bring back Omiage (gifts/​momentoes) from your trip for all of your loved ones and close friends. That is why the Japanese tourist buses always stop at the duty free stores, and masses of Japanese are buying up Gucci, Channel, Coach, Designer of the Month, etc. and other such brand names with an obsessed sense of obligation and determination.
If your thing is to spend a lot of money hoping to earn a little status and respect (especially self-​respect) with conspicuous consumption, Miu Miu is waiting for you here, and all those other cities you travel to.

Oh man, everytime I walk into this store, it is just like candy land for me. I have no idea where to start. The bags here are beautiful. I can get high alone on the smell of leather that permeates throughout the store.
And the shoes! As a sucker for flats, they have the most adorable, girly pairs in season all the time, with bows or jewels. If I was a rich girl, I wouldn’t think twice about dropping $ 550 for shoes, but instead, I’ll just wait for their sales.
The associates here are very friendly and super helpful. Whenever I have dropped in, I’ve had one associate always on hand to help me — telling me more about their bags, what kinds of colors they have available, when new shoes!!! are coming in …
I love this store.

Contrary to what previous reviex sayd, Miu Miu is not «more affordable» than Prada. Wallets start at $ 310 and shoes are around $ 550. But what a store ! I love it all, from decadently gorgeous wallpaper to eye candy silk dresses. The merchandise is simply exquisite. No wonder Japanese fashion addict are crazy about the brand !

miu miu had their store opening this morning. i’m amazed how fast they put everything together because when i was at the mall last night it seemed like they had quite a way to go. in fact minutes before the store was set to open, the construction crew was busy putting the store sign up.
